Search function, Cursor improvement, Instrument manager

[yoshihirouk]

Hello,

Loving NinjaTrader so far and I wanted to help with ideas to improve it further.

A few things that could be improved:

• File > New > Chart > Data series. Search function: find all or part of a phrase. e.g. AC should find AC, AC.PA etc If I just type in AC and create a chart then it fails to load. If I type in AC.PA then I can create a chart.
• 'Snap to' for Cross Hair and Cursors. Should 'snap to' nearest day's data and the same for all indicators (VOL, RSI etc). This would make finding a day's information much easier and quicker.
• Tools > Instrument Manager > Instrument Lists > SP 500 > then the ability to double-click a ticker (e.g. AAPL) to edit the information
• Sector information: the ability to organise data by sector and also view fundamental information for a sector like this http://biz.yahoo.com/p/s_conameu.html
• Moving average indicators at the top of a chart should have a key. E.G. Small yellow line = 20day SMA etc
• Preset buttons at the bottom of chart view for 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years view would speed up use of charts and add value

Thanks
