Add the Midas Touch watchlist to VectorVest Prographics 6
PLEASE! Make the Midas Touch watchlist available to VectorVest Prographics 6 so that the Simulator can run tests against it.
At present, the hottest idea in VectorVest cannot be tested at all in the Simulator.

Create a VV7 Simulator/Variator so we don't have to maintain a VV6 database
There is presently little reason to continue to download VV6 daily data except to maintain a database for use of the simulator and variator. A VV7 Simulator and Variator would allow me to drop the VV6 program and rely solely on VV7. And within VV7 itself, the Simulators capability of using a fixed percentage gain and a trailing stop to sell a stock needs to be added/maintained.

add a Hedge situation in the Simulator
I'd like to be able to create and test a carve-out for a percentage of a portfolio to hedge. The idea would be to create a situation where a long strategy would be maintained with existing stops during a "timing sell condition," but with the ability to add a hedge, i.e., a Contra ETF, to be held in the carved out portion of the cash until the next "timing buy condition."

Fix the simulator to test industries and sectors
If you input an industry or sector search into the simulator, it breaks it down to individual stocks, and does not test the industries or sectors by themselves. Fix it

Assigning names to Simulator Runs
In Simulator, after setting up a Simulation and then clicking "Run Simulation", I would like to be prompted for the name of that run before it starts running, instead of the system assigning Run#001, Run#002 etc. This will save time in renaming them later and will help keep runs meaningfully filed, especially when running multiple sims at the same time. Its a small idea, but would be very helpful.

Please place the new timing system into simulator so we can test with it....keep it more current please
I like to use the simulator to backtest ideas...but it seems to lag in its updates. Can you put the newest timing system into the simulator and keep it more current. Ideally it would combine with the Real time system or use its own set of data so we would not have to keep the Prographics updated all the time since we don't really use that program if we have real time. Thanks.

intraday stops
If we can't get VV7 simulator / variator in 2014 maybe we can get intraday stops added to the VV6 simulator / variator. The new sure fired success strategies perform much better with intraday stops (VV7) vs end of day stops in the VV6 simulator / variator. It would be great to test different stop combinations.

options
Make it to where users can build options strategies with the simulator and variator . With the simulator and variator I believe I found the best stock strategies that Vectorvest offers. I would like to do the same with options.

create the ability to ease into a maximum number of positions up to a max.
example would be to buy 2 stocks/day up to a maximum of 10. Currenlty you can initially buy 2 stocks on the 1st day, but then the simulator buys the remaining 8 positions on the second day.

Manual Trade simulator
There is a product for Forex that has been quite helpful in learning to trade - ForexTester.
The product for stocks would mimic this.
The user would select a specific stock or criteria (a list as we get now with unisearch results). Lets start with a specific stock - easier to explain.
I take IBM and start on 1/1/10. I'm presented with a graph that I can add indicators to (like Graph). I'm given $100K in test money. As I click the space bar, the day's price appears. I can execute a buy or a sell. I click the space…1 vote -
Fix or remove the option to step into a new situation (e.g. 10 stocks total, 2 per day)
This feature does not work in Simulator. It does work in VV7, but there is no way to reasonably test hundreds of simulations using a step in approach in VV7. Using a $100,000 portfolio and a step of 2 stocks per day with a max of 10 stocks, the program buys 2 stocks with $50,000 each on the first day and no new trades are placed until one of them is closed, then it buys the rest (9 stocks) on the next day dividing up the available money.

Modify
Modify "Not in Purchase Group" stop giving it more flexibility by allowing the user to specify when the stock is sold. For example, if you are searching for the top 10 stocks in any one search instead of selling the stock when it falls out of the top 10 why not be able to specify selling when it drops out of the top 12 or 15 or 20th position. The flexibility would be enhance an otherwise good stop.

Vary by BSR or MTI
In next version of Simulator, I would like to be able to run results of what worked best in relation to where the BSR is located. For example, say the BSR is at 1.75. The simulator could show results of what long or short searches performed the best when the BSR has been at 1.75 in the past. If there was no data in the past for BSR at 1.75, then automatically find the next closest value, show all the results for each selected long or short search and add them together. There could also be the same ability with…
