New Release: v3.0.3 - Everything Except Autotrading

This release essentially finishes everything other than automated trading. Admittedly this is kind of funny due to the fact that this is automated trading software :-) But think of it like a pyramid, where everything builds up and feeds into the auto-trading part at the tip.

There are some things you should do after upgrading:

• The messaging area has all changed, so you should check the messaging options (Admin > Options) and broadcast settings (Admin > Broadcast Settings).
• FXCM has changed their timestamps from EST to GMT. Backtesting results will not change, but if you plan on making synthetic bars then I recommend to redownload price history for 2-Hourly to 12-Hourly bars, and also Daily, Weekly, Monthly.

Here is the full list of changes:

Added in v3.0.3

• FXCM - recurring price history and account info downloads.
• Indicator-based alerts, price alerts.
• Helper fields on Indicator window (just like Column window).
• More search criteria on Data Managers - checkboxes for the 4 gathering methods.
• Can be smarter with the Holiday search.
• Change New File wizard so it checks to see if the chosen settings file or any of its associated price history files need upgrading.
• Option on Indicator Test window to only get the smallest number of bars.
• Completed tasks (file load, interval creation, backtest) context menu - "recreate task". Especially useful if a task errors.
• Have checkboxes on Alerts, Systems, Backtest Config entries, so that price data actually used is the same, regardless of the ones chosen on each rule.
• Backtest result window - error message appears if choose not to chart all of the icons, as the max value of the progress bar is set by the visible ones, while the counter is updated for all.
• Interval of price data selected in Auto-Trading section and Backtest Config entry needs to be equal to or smaller than the minimum interval used for all the rules/values.
• New broadcast centre. Ways to be notified of new messages:
  • Email
  • SMS
  • Twitter
  • Growl
  • Snarl
  • Notify.io
  • Notifo
  • Popup-notifier
  • Icon in the system tray
