2. Add a "Views" function to allow us to see our portfolio performance over different time periods

   Every year, I have to creatively create a new portfolio with my current holdings as "purchased" at the beginning of the year so that I may see how my YTD performance is going. It would be much better if I could maintain a single portfolio and just change the time period I am interested in - like YTD - and get the performance metrics, transaction reports, etc. for that time period. At a minimum, simply seeing the chart for my time period and performance from the open of the beginning of that time period based on my purchase history since that beginning date would be awesome.

8. Can you add a percent gain (Gain Side) with a trailing stop (Loss side) on your backtester on

   I would like to know if on your BackTester you can you add a percent gain on the "Gain Side" (which you already have, but with a trailing stop on "Loss Side".

   I believe this can help the overall winning percentage and decrease the drawdown,

9. How do I calculate the 5 and 25 day MA for RT per stock in Unisearch to implement the RT Kicker Combo?

   I want to be able to calculate the RT MAs for a stock. I can then create a custom field to determine the crossover by stock without looking on a graph? How do I do that.

10. New RT combo pair strategy to be posted

    I think it's a great idea to run backtests on an RT kicker combo strategy "S&P500 Stop Asc/Contra ETFs", and list this as a model portfolio and include it in the Daily Color Guard discussion. This is important since we are not allowed to short stocks in an IRA account, but are allowed to buy contra ETFs.

11. Red Light Seller with RT kicker

    The Green Light Buyer with RT kicker looks great for getting into the market. But the Confirmed Down always seems to give back more money than I'd like. How about doing the inverse of the GLB/RT to get out of the market? I'd love to be able to test a timing mechanism like a Red Light Seller with an RT kicker in the backtester.

12. Import stock symbols from CSV file into a new portfolio

13. Enable unisearch criteria to include VVC price, VVC RT and VVC value simple andweighted moving averages.

    The SOTW for 8-10-2012 "Improving the Green Light Buyer with an RT Kicker." introduces using VVC RT simple moving average crossover requirement to determine if a green light is valid to buy stocks.
    
    This is akin to what I have been studying using VVC Price moving averages to tell when to use the C/Up signals and when to ignore them.
    
    For example in down markets it seems to make great sense to ignore a C/Up when the VVC Price 160 day MA is trending down until it begins recovering.
    
    Also it seems valid to wait until the VVC Price 45 day Weighted MA is trending up and using this trend in combination with your RT Kicker and a C/Up to go long. For example, look at the two C/Up dates of 7/30/2010 and 9/9/2010. Using this combination avoids the false Up of 7/30/10 and captures the true Up of 9/9/10. Will this work throughout the past 20 years? We'll have to test this. Will You, please? I would like to be able to include this in a search criteia so that stocks would only be reurned if the selected VVC criteria were satisfied.

14. Allow Saved Searches to be used as a search parameter in a search

    When building searches in Unisearch, sometimes you want to create a search that uses search parameters found in other searches. Rather than having to copy those parameters into the new search it would be useful to be able to include that search as a parameter in the new search.

    The Parameter would be "saved search"
    The operator would be = or <>
    The value would the name of the search

    This would permit the ability to combine targeted searches. For example, you could create a search looking for growth stocks and a search looking for value stocks. Creating a search that includes

    Date of Search, Saved Search, =, Growth
    Date of Search, Saved Search, =, Value

    the results would find any stocks that would be found in both searches.

    Date of Search, Saved Search, =, Growth
    Date of Search, Saved Search, <>, Value

    the result would return stocks that are unique to the Growth search (In the Growth search and not in the value search)

15. Options Analyzer - Use the strike and expiration month entered in Unisearch

    As it stands now, you have to edit the option data (strike and expiration) once the Options Analyzer opens. I already entered it in Unisearch. Why can't the software use the data I already entered?

17. Be able to save more than one custom layout for print or CSV

    Different watchlists and/or industries have different criterias that are needed. When printing you should be able to save more than one custom layout - would need a save button and a name per layout.

    This would also be helpful when wanting to print to a csv file to export to excel, etc - rather than the current print to CSV when right clicking on the viewer - which can not nodify the columns to be printed - thus a custom layout that go to ways - to print or CSV.

20. for multi-stock graphs, also display the list of stock symbols in "Symbols" window

    Let's say that we have a watch-list of 10 stocks, and we wish to display and
    examine their stock graphs.

    In the OLD version of VectorVest, you can first select ALL 10 stocks, and then
    right-click the mouse and click "View Stock Graph". All the 10 stock symbols
    will then be shown in the "Symbols" window above the graph. From this you can
    select ANY ONE of the 10 stock symbols at will to display its graph.

    My question is: how do I accomplish the same in VectorVest 7?
