VVC Stock history, removed
DO NOT remove the "history" of a stock's performance for those stocks that have been removed the VVC Database. By removing the history, you are skewing the results of the Simulator, a tool that I rely heavily upon.

New Backtest Concept
Present concept is to take a set of stocks at a certain date and see results at the end date. With a tiny capacity to have stops in place. This concept is static.
I suggest to transform from static to dynamic by :
1. adding sorting capacities in unisearch
2. Every day, Backtest system takes the top N stocks (Display top N) of the search (with sort) and assume that this is the population to be present in the BT Portfolio that day.
if one stock is new in list, this is a Long Entry

Back Testing Data Availability
In back testing on 6/20/10 w/ VV 7 Intraday, I can only back test up to Wednesday, 6/16/10 instead the weekend (6/18/10). I want to do back testing to get ready for Monday's market. I can do better using the ProGraphics, except for some of the searches are not available. When I selected VV7 Intraday, I was told the data was 15 minutes behind real time. Now I am told that it will not be available until Tue 6/22/10 (6 days later!!!). This is a serious handicap and should be resolved ASAP.

BackTest Using a 30,60,90 day price perf. div. by ATR
Hi,
I would like to create a search and back test using a
30+60+90 day price performance divided by ATR or STDEV sorted in descending order.
Is there a way to do something like this or something which comes close to this concept?
I am missing ATR or any volatility function other than BB, do you plan to include this into the protrader?

add backtesting of certain times. ie run search at 10am of search and see what it did hours later
Allow backtesting of times not just end of day data. I want to do a search at 10 am and see what the stock did minutes or hours, days later. not just end of the day.

BUG in REC=S for 2 weeks
I backtested a portfolio (using Stalwarts) with long STOP at REC=S for 2 weeks. Looking at the stocks which were stopped-out, and the history of the stocks, they were stopped at less than 2 wks. Please fix.

Backtest Graph - shown as it would have appeared on a given date, automatically.
When I run a search for backtesting purposes, it would be helpful if the graph would default to that specific date. Example - run a search for stocks on 1/3/07 - graph should appear as it would have on 1/3/07 not as of today's date.

Limit Investment Percentage In Back-Test, AutoTester
Allow back-testing to limit the portfolio amount to be invested. This would be useful for users of AutoTester, as well as those who execute tests manually.
For example: "During Confirmed Up, I want to ramp up to 100% invested. During Confirmed Down, I still want to buy long (?from a short ETFs list?), but only maintain positions up to 50% invested."
There are currently these two mutually exclusive choices:
( ) Invest all buying power
(O) Invest average portfolio valueI am suggesting a cap, by which these two are constrained:
Limit overall portfolio exposure to [______] %If I…
