New features for Version 2

#1 Postby Tantalus » Fri Apr 11, 2008 11:22 am

Thanks for all the great new features, Mike. I really look forward to the next generation!!

BTW, as a point for improving English language skills, when you speak of more than one index, the correct word is 'indices', not indexes.

Put another way, the proper plural form of index is indices.

Hi Mike
I would like to know if you have any plans about version 2.
The additions are REALLY necessary.

Mike,
would it be possible to display the active project name somewhere,perhaps on the title bar?
I might have same instrument and different projects and often I forget wich project is active.
Also, when saving the project -File-Save Project- it would be helpfull if the names of existing projects has been displayed.
Thanks,
Joseph

2.0 Features

#7 Postby libertao » Fri Sep 19, 2008 9:14 am

Hi Mike,

There were two features (already requested in past threads) that I was wondering whether they are planned to be in version 2.0. They seem incredibly essential to me (though I'm sure most people say that about requested features).

1. Keyboard shortcut to cycle through tabs/currencies (like ctrl+tab). And maybe allow the scroll wheel to cycle through the tabs?

2. Automatic position size calculating based on stop size and risk percentage i.e.:
(Account $ * Risk %)/(Stop Size in Pips / 10000)

These would extremely speed up testing for me and others I believe and what would make me purchase 2.0. Which reminds me, will there be a difference in price between upgrades and full purchases? ;)

I need to implement declared features first and then I will implement other features as free updates (builds) for version 2.

Hi
Backtesting is essential and Forex tester makes this relatively easy but one downside is that I don't look at charts 24hrs/day, everyday.

So, a suggestion would be to have an option to mark the times you don't normally trade with a colour shading so that we can test our strategies in a more realistic way?

Thanks for a great product! :)
