For those who are running multiple strategies on a single account (and do not use Meta Trader) it would be a great feature if it was possible to tag trades so that one could perform custom analysis on trades belonging to a single strategy.

For example if someone has a breakout strategy, a trend following strategy and indulges in the occasional punt based on nothing but gut feel it would be awsome if it was possible register 3 tags: BO for breakouts, TRND for trend trades and GMBL for gambles and then be able to assign one of those tags to each trade one makes so that one could to perform custom analysis on trades with a certain tag. It would work perfectly if it was done the same way that analysing trades by currency pair is done - using checkboxes in the custom analysis area.

Forgive me for bumping my own thread, but I'd only like to add that this is not really a suggestion for a new feature as much as an extension of a feature already available to Meta Trader 4 users to everyone else. So give this some more yes votes you bastards ;) !

If the dislike is from Ranesh of RBFX then please disregard it. We have personal differences stemming from my critique of his PAMM's performance and he is petty enough to dislike this suggestiong just because of that.

I see you chaps got a bit steamed up today. Chill, it's only numbers.
I think every member has one vote and it's none of our business where they put it. If you want more yes votes you could sign up with a dozen different usernames - that's a trendy way of getting vouches these days as well lol lol lol

You're seeing Ranesh everywhere? It was not him. The No vote was me.

I think calling me a bastard when asking for my support is not a good idea.
I think 'please' is a word which could get you much farther than 'bastards'.

Let's wait and see how the other 'bastards' will like your suggestion ...

Surround yourself with people whose eyes light up when they see you and who have no agenda for your reform.

May I ask why you voted 'no' on this? Like I've said, I'm only asking that a feature available to MT4 users be extended everyone else. And I thought that it was clear from the context that 'bastards' was used in a humorous manner, not an insulting one.

speki,

why would you not like this idea? It only makes sense for traders to analysis their trades by strategy

It can also be used for System developers to filtering logic.

The magic # is already implemented, so why not sort by Comment or Tag?

4+ pluses ?!?! Monkey balls!!! That's like a billion people in the real world - with that kind of popular support, you are surely already working on implementing this ;). BTW Will's idea of tagging trades using the comment box is very good too. Personally I don't care if its done using a dedicated button or using the comments.

I just read another users comment in the suggestion box and maybe we should have Both

--- the Comment Field - for sorting from EA's and for the use of comments as it was designed for

and

--- Add the TAG option.

this way we can still use the comments effectively(sorting and comments) and still TAG the strategies for sorting.

tagging is done manually by the user, and the comment can be done manually or implemented by our EA's.
