I would like to be able to route print output to different output windows . . . e.g, Output1, Output2, Output 3, etc. Often I would like to track tick or bar activity in one output window and monitor custom strategy performance metrics in another window, for example, that updates less frequenlty or is presented as a form vs a line-by-line report format, still using the print statement, of course. This idea would also be useful to parse information by setup type. For extra credit, it would be nice to be able to name the output window and reference that name programmatically when it is printed to.

Thanks for your consideration of this idea.

Regards,

Whitmark

Hi Mark:

Thank you for the suggestion.

I will pass on to development and make sure they add it to thier list of possible future enhancements to the NT Software.

Have a great day and happy trading. :)

Along the same line, I would like to be able to redirect the output from the Output window to a file.

I would like to be able to do this without an Output window by specifying an output filename in the StrategyAnalyzer parameters screen; or later, as an after-thought, by selecting the Output window and doing a right-click, and using a "Save-As" option.
