I am not a coder and I am creating strategies with Wizard or Builder only.
To be honest I preferred the view of strategies in NT7 style - few columns view rather than one long column only.
Is it possible to have it changed?

Another modification to be able to group the custom strategies into folders - as currently any sub-folder is not visible when opening Strategy Builder, just individual files in main folder.
Also, this would allow to have strategies sorted as e.g. WIP, new, tested, etc.

There are some good 3rd party MP VP and TPO tools available, check out NeuroStreetTradingAcademy, there suite of tools are fantastic, not affiliated through them though they are worth digging into.

the ability to import trades into the monte carlo simulation etc from trade performance/manual trading/ market replay tests to save buying a 2nd product, the feature already exists in the platform so it would be nice to add this additional functionality

hello,

This is not an indicator request but rather a functionality that I think would be helpful to many. So, what about a way to extract the full chart in csv format. Not just price data, but everything that is on the chart including indicators?

There is currently a custom script available to download in the NT support forum but offers limited functionality.

thanks

The easiest way is to add higher timeframe to the strategy, like in charts...
I know this is not perfect and most convenient, but might be a solution.

The ability to get TD Ameritrade to link to NT 8 in Windows 11! So I can trade stocks via NT8 too.
