A 64bit version of NTDirect.dll would be really great! Endless possibilities...

About Strategy templates, when you right clicks settings to "Set default", the chapters 'General' , 'Order Handling' and 'Order Properties' are not saved, unlike 'Parameters' and "Historical Fixx Processing' . This can be frustrating, please manage to Set default all chapters (without the need to hard code, that's what templates are for).

I know this has been griped about, but I am not up to date if it is a done deal for NT8: please give us 10 levels of depth on the DOM, like much of the competition has.

Was already covered in the NT8 webinar, it will be there.

10 levels or unlimited ?

I connect to my broker via API and get 20 levels. Would be nice if that works without limitation. Thx

It depends on the exchange/market I believe as to how many levels are delivered. I would imagine @NinjaTrader will support however many the exchange will send, but better to let them answer.

I wish for inverted charts and ability to use inverted prices in indicators like the way TOS does with just adding "-" to the beginning of the ticker.

Multi currency
--------------

Ninja allows trading in instruments denominated in different currencies. It even vaguely acknowledges the fact by putting your local currency symbol (£ for me) in the profit columns on the strategies tab, next to *every* currency amount. Switch to the account performance tab, and the Euro amounts that were listed as pounds are now listed with a dollar sign. In fact everything is now listed with a dollar sign. The same is true of backtest. Many of the amounts are simply wrong. The Gilt and the Bund are listed as dollars, and if you added a Bund profit to a USD loss elsewhere you could be in profit even though you are listed as being in loss.

All trading tools used primarily by professional traders handle multi currency. The fact that Ninja handles it very slightly is even worse than not at all, since it's inconsistent.

Does anyone know if NT8 is planning to add multi-currency support for backtesting?
