Ninjatrader Christmas Wish List

[gbourque]

1) Provide a chart option to disable all horizontal scrolling by the mouse, by both dragging and mouse wheel.

2) Provide a general option to default newly added indicators to have a blank label.

3) Allow changing the background color of the PnL window in Chart Trader. Allow changing the font size of the PnL readout.

4) Make the time picker in Playback a 24-hour clock, at least optionally.

5) Have stop market and limit order ATM orders created by ATMStrategyCreate call OnOrderUpdate (or an OnATMUpdate ?) when moved. Currently this doesn't happen. If you move an existing yet-to-be-executed ATM order created with ATMStrategyCreate there is no way for the strategy script to find the order's new price.

6) Provide a new API call that allows strategy scripts to attach an ATM to an already existing order created by the strategy. This would simplify coding strategies that submit orders with and without brackets, and would eliminate the need to code a strategy around ATMStrategyCreate.

7) When you use SetTrailStop or SetProfitTarget to create a bracket on an order, and you use the mouse to move the stop or the target, on the next OnBarUpdate the strategy will move them to where it thinks they should be. This should be optional behavior for obvious reasons. The default behavior should be if you move the bracket order, the Set... is disabled.

8) When Ninjatrader crashes it sometimes locks the entire computer, including Task Manager, requiring a hard reboot. When this happens NT sometimes resets some of its configuration settings. This should be investigated.

Just had some suggestions. Thank for this great app! Happy Holidays!

6. The AtmStrategyCreate() method would need to be used to attach an ATM Strategy to an order submitted by a NinjaScript strategy. To place orders without an ATM Strategy attached, you could call Enter methods, such as EnterLong()/EnterShort().

7. I have submitted your feature request to the Development team. This is being tracked under SFT-6142.
