    Originally posted on the IG Community forum. But, as they are slow to respond – if they respond at all – maybe this is a better platform to post these to? @Nicolas, it seems you have a good channel to PRT. Please evaluate and pass on to them (I am going to post a number of these – some might be old, and may possibly even be in v10.3 already).

    Hi,

    More suggestions:

    1) Sort by colour. In PRT you can highlight items in lists in different colours; like a watchlist or spread list, etc. It would be great to also be able to sort by colour highlighted – especially for large lists.

    2) Ability to add a spread (or ratio) to a watchlist. I do a lot of pair trades (stock1 divided by stock2). I define these in PRT as spreads. It would be great to be able to put the spread/ratio in my watchlist.

     

    As an idea, with 10.4, maybe they should focus a bit on productivity/ease of use.

    As an example, every time that you want to change the way that price is displayed, it takes 4 clicks (spanner->Style->choose style->close dialog). Why not make these available as toolbar buttons? Or, put the most common ones in each price chart’s “header” section?

    Similarly, to delete an indicator takes 4 clicks. Why? Programs such as Amibroker only needs 2; right click the indicator at the top where all displayed indicators are listed, and select delete.

    For occasional/casual use I guess PRT is fine, but as soon as you start using it to develop and test strategies, etc. it is very cumbersome and slow to use.

    Before I forget, here’ s another one: Code Snippets. Why not allow users to save snippets of code (not functions) in their own library/sections? For example,  snippets of code for different types of stops, for defining position size (like Van Tharpe), etc, etc. Currently, you have to maintain all of these outside of PRT.

    Regards

    Stef
