Hi All,

Currently, when you set up a system to autotrade, you can set it up for one instrument and one timeframe only.

If you have developed a strategy that works on more than one instrument, it can take a very long time to set this up to run for each instrument.

Why not have the ability to choose a list (watchlist) of instruments to trade the strategy on? I would probably set this so that you would have to do this per timeframe; daily, 15min, etc.

I currently have a system that I would like to trade on 40+ stocks. The way it works now, I would have to set the strategy to run for each stock individually (very time consuming).

Also, I will have 40+ systems running on ProOrder – for this strategy only.

And the stats will also be calculated and displayed per instrument – so there is no easy way of knowing how the strategy is performing over all stocks.

Does anyone else think that this would be useful?

Regards

Stef
