- AutoSave Desktop Template on
Switching option implemented.
This feature can be accessed from General Properties and it allows the
user to enable/disable the auto-saving of the active desktop template
when switching between templates using Navigator
Window>File>Desktop Template
- Export Environment option
implemented.
This feature can be accessed from Navigator Window>File Menu. It
allows the user to select certain VTtrader attributes
(settings/properties, desktop templates, standard indicators, custom
indicators, standard trading systems, custom trading systems, and
desktop template files) and save those files into a VTtrader
Environment File (.vtenv) for later import.
- Import Environment option
implemented.
This feature can be accessed from Navigator Window>File Menu. It
allows the user to select certain VTtrader attributes
(settings/properties, desktop templates, standard indicators, custom
indicators, standard trading systems, custom trading systems, and
desktop template files) from a previously exported VTtrader Environment
File (.vtenv) and import those files into VTtrader. The user may choose
to skip, rename, or replace files during the import process.
- Navigator Window and its
toolbars display properties are saved with desktop template file.
The Navigator Window and its toolbars’ visibility settings, screen
placement, and configuration settings are now saved and restored when
using the File Menu>Desktop Template options to switch between
various desktop layouts. These settings are also exported and imported
when using the Export Environment and Import Environment features to
export/import desktop templates.
- New trading systems rules
implemented.
Only one trading system can be running in trading mode for the same
currency pair (1 UserAccount / 1 CurrencyPair); user can run many
trading systems on same CurrencyPair if they use a different account
for same CurrencyPair (+1 UserAccounts / 1 CurrencyPair); user can run
many trading systems on same UserAccount if they use different currency
pairs (1 UserAccount / +1 CurrencyPairs)
- Trading systems account and
amount per account settings have become common Trading Properties.
Trading Parameters now contain only trading variables and properties of
these variables can not be edited from within this dialog window; for
each trading variable the user can input Traders' Range, EachTick Count
value and check/uncheck Hedge checkbox. When trading system running in
auto-trade, the OK button is disabled in Trading Properties window to
prevent modification of the running trading system
- Gann Grid tool implemented.
A Gann Grid represents an intersecting series of Gann Lines over laid
on a price chart; Gann's teachings stress the importance of the 45
degree line representing a 1:1 relationship between time and price (1
unit of price to 1 unit of time). When price trades above the 45-degree
line it is an indication of an up-trending market; when price trades
below the 45-degree line it is an indication of a down-trending market.
Choosing varying rise/run values will adjust the spacing between the
lines and their corresponding Gann angles according to the new values.
- Equidistant Channel tool
implemented.
An Equidistant Channel is made up of two parallel trend lines drawn
simultaneously in the price window. The user may adjust the width of
the channel to encompass the current price action by moving the top
line of the equidistance channel to the desired distance using the
mouse cursor. The user can also redraw, reposition, and change the
display properties of the equidistant channel.

file names are preserved upon import
The names of indicator files (.vtsrc) are now preserved when imported
