  1. When backtesting, replacement stocks in my tests are often the same stock so that I'd be trading the same stock several times within 30 days, often with losses I couldn't write off in real trading because of "wash sale" rule. Allow me to restrict buying closed positions to simulate real tax planning of trades.

    This issue has been fixed and will be available in the next update we release for VectorVest 7.

  5. Why doesn't VV7 save preferences I constantly uncheck the VV Portfolios also when closing a position why can't we change close price?

    To manually enter a purchase price, type the actual Price into the Price/Share textbox instead of clicking Get Price on the Place Trade dialog.

  7. VV allows you to graph a watchlist, but not a portfolio (as far as I know). Allow the same functionality so you can track the RT of your consolidated portfolio, compare performance vs the VVC or other metrics, etc.

  8. Since the Kicker for the GLB worked so well, why not allow users using Unisearch to search for stocks whose 10 day MA of RT is over its 15 day MA of RT or any moving average we want.

    The new update to VectorVest 7 includes Custom Moving Averages for Unisarch that can be used to create an RT Kicker. Last Friday’s Strategy of the Week showed how to setup this type of search.

    If you haven’t received the new update yet, it can be downloaded here:

  9. Need a way to instantly see which stocks/etf's have had a new change in REC on a daily basis.

    Check out our existing searches in the “Trends – New Stuff” group on the UniSearch tab… “New Buys”, etc.

    Stochastic Oscillator Crossovers have been added as a part of VectorVest 7 with ProTrader.

    To use a Stochastic Oscillator Crossover, add the Price (Split Adjusted) Parameter to a search. Stochastic Oscillator Crossover will show under ProTrader in the list of available Operators.

  11. When the Full Screen button is hit while in Full Screen mode viewing Daily/Timing/SOTW, it should simply reduce to the original size and keep playing. Instead, the video stops, and you have to restart and find your place again in the video.

    The new VectorVest 7 video player is available and resolves this Full Screen issue.

  12. All windows appear to update on the Home tab including Strategy, except for Color Guard (SFS starts). The Welcome page does not update either unless VV7 is closed, and restarted.

    It would seem that ALL windows should update, not just a subset.

  13. I have been looking at the above unisearch (CI Up & Comers) and find that the best time to enter this strategy is much more earlier.

    So could you design a unisearch that will cover a CI MA crossover?

    The point at which the CI MA 10 Crosses above the CI MA 20 and both the CI MA 10 and the CI MA 20 are greater than the CI MA 40.

    This would give us information about the beginning of the move. We can then look at the graphs and cherry pick for profits.

    This would be a great addition…

    Tom, this search can be created using the new Unisearch Custom Moving Averages in ProTrader. The 2/1/2013 Strategy of the Week shows how these searches can be created.

    This feature is available in VectorVest 7 by clicking Add Trade and choosing Sell Long as the Trade Type. The dialog will then allow you to choose the position to sell, as well as the Price/Share and Quantity.

  15. I know it would be VERY helpful to me to be able to use "Tools" "Custom Field Builder" under the "Graphs" tab,,, I called today to see why I was not able to use my custome fields with my graphs and was told that it is not available,,,BUT I HAVE MADE CUSTOME FIELDS AND USED THEM WITH MY GRAPHS AND HAVE ONE WORKING NOW! Can you tell me how to do it AGAIN... THANKS

  16. I am currently receiving a Windows only trading platform on my MAC via Citrix Zen. The program works great and does not require me to have Parallels or Windows installed. It functions directly on my MAC. Can Vector Vest be delivered the same way for MAC users?

    We’re proud to announce that VectorVest 7 is now available on Mac OS X 10.7 and later! This solution no longer requires a separate partition or installing Parallels Desktop + Windows. Instead, we use a remote server to host VectorVest 7.

    Subscribers will install Parallels RAS Client (free app) to access our software. To start using it, go to vectorvest.com/install/vectorvest7/mac.

  17. Custome Indicators are available for Stocks but not for Sectors or Industries.

  18. Use cloud to offer VV7 using Citrix. Eliminate the need to use windows on Mac. Schwab currently does this with their software.

  19. Make an option to delete or hide the model portfolios. It is very frustrating to have my portfolios get crowded out by something I do not use or need.

    We have added a new checkbox at the top of the Portfolios to hide/show the VectorVest Model Portfolios in the new 1.4 release of VectorVest 7. If you don’t have it yet, you should be receiving the update in the next few days.

    VectorVest 7 allows the entry of either the symbol or the company name in all symbol text boxes. Type in the company name and it will narrow it down to the symbol you are looking for.
