Brainstorming : what could be the perfect trading platform ? - page 2

 
Alain Verleyen:

This topic is open to everyone to express their idea, traders, coders, investors...

What would you like to be able to do which is not possible with MT4/MT5 ?

What would you like to change, to improve or to remove ?

Which technologies could be use in addition/replacements of current ones ?

Renko Charts 

a buttun when pressed it chance all the charts when adjusting time or template at the same time 

when you have more than 1 chart open in profile auto dock the charts  

a clock in the toolbar (adjusteble) 

to add a stoploss and take profit in the left corner  

 
multicore support to facilitate historic data calculations. nothing else.
 
MQL5:

Add interfaces (like pure abstract classes) and the ability for class to inherit another class but also to implement an interface.
Add delegates (better then function pointers in terms of OO and easier for compiler writers to implement).
 

For both mt4 and mt5 better support for non time based chart types.

In Mt4, introduce ability to create ( or access)  tick data for strategy tester.

 

1) Multi monitor support. This has to be the most basic requirement for any trading system since the 1990's. The fact that it is not part of the biggest retail platform in the world is just odd

2) Multi symbol support in backtester. It's been discussed here already, but deserves another mention

3) Ability to use the performance Profiler in conjunction with backtester

4) Profiler should work with virtual methods.. currently you cannot profile derived virtual methods, which can be a big limitation

5) Language should permit declaring a stack variable that is a reference to another object. (You can pass objects by reference to methods, so there is no reason why you shouldn't be able to declare them locally)
