Latest BullCharts version?

Hi,

Regarding your post to have some input for the next version:

I have sent it earlier to bullcharts team but thought to make it available here as well. 

Therefore pl. find my top 5-7 suggestions that I would appreciate to have in next version. (no specific order but I think alerts are really important.)

 1.  Adjustable alert input window so you can change size (up to full size). Be able to post images and weblinks in the window. Like in scan description.

       2.2. An extra field in alerts in a editable drop down list. This so you can attach your strategy name for the specific alert in a swift and easy way. Also available as column in the alert manager.

3.      3. Implement global paths as described earlier so you do not have to change in watch lists etc. when you change location of Metastock folder.

4.       4. Alerts: created date and what time e.g. 12:11 the alert was triggered. Better control of old alerts and to know when during the day the alert was triggered. This as I use snap shots and BC ongoing during the day. New column in alert manager,

5.       5. To be able to set an alerts on indicators and not only volume, open, high, low and close. This is useful when doing e.g pair trades so you can see when they are triggered in the Bollinger bands.

6. Connect a hotkey to run alerts for better access to frequently used scans.

7. To be able to drill down to 1 hour resolution (perfect entry resolution for daily) for Metastock would have been great. 

NEW: 8. Add value to BC MS users to be able to work also with fundamental information. This could be done having just an excel file/SQL accessing the info from. You should be able to access the info from scan/detailed watchlist. Think you could do this without interfering with eventual subscription services that you offer. Infact this could be an eye opener to the mentioned service as it would be very light compared to what you offer here. For some markets e.g. Sweden you do not have this on the meny. 

That´s all from me. All metastock oriented as that is my use.

Good luck with the new version. Bullcharts rocks and is a fantastic trading tool. 

Best regards

Stefan

I have one enhancement that I'd like to suggest and something that I feel needs addressing :

I like the fact that the ex-div date can be identified on a chart though it's confined to just the latest date. It's valuable in the sense that if the dividend is significant it identifies the reason for any significant decline on the day (and sometimes beyond).  I would like this extended further if possible to be able to see the history of prior ex-div dates on the chart. 

The one thing I would like to see rectified is the data corruption that usually occurs following a share reconstruction. The latest 'likely' example is stock code LYC which traded as LYCDA for 7 days.
I usually wait till sometime after trading recommences under the original code and then contact Bullcharts support to have this rectified.
