A few suggestions I think would improve on v5:

* On the SuperDom the instrument should change when the strategy dropdown is changed. For instance if I have an ES adn ER strategy and change strategy per the dropdown the instrument should change accordingly.

* The strategy dropdown on the SuperDom acts weird. If I'm in ES1 strategy for example and am in a trade, once the trade is completed (hits target or stop) the strategy dropdown may revert to ER1 or something other than ES1. Unsettling.

* Please save state on the SuperDom and the account tab. Especially for the account chosen. I usually close Ninja with all in sim but it always opens in my live account. I know about the global simulation choice in the file menu but would prefer to simply have my settings save as in v4.

Overall really like the changes. Thanks.

Strategies are instrument indpendant so this can't be done.

This is likely because you included the instrument name as part of the strategy. I suggest not doing this.

On the above q&a when the strategy is completed (hits target or stop) why can't the dropdown simply go back to the strategy just executed? I just renamed my strategies so the instrument name is not part of and now the strategy dropdown goes to "none" when the strategy is completed. This is really counter-intuitive! I keep two SDoms open at a time. One for my ES strategy and one for my ER strategy. It doesn't seem unreasonable to me that when a strategy is completed the strategy dropdown defaults back to it's original choice.

I have a suggestion that would alleviate an annoyance with ver. 5. When you enter an order on the DOM, the pop-up confirmation window covers the DOM. In a fast moving market the price may have already moved past your target and you can't see the present market. In ver. 4 the window opened off to the side of the DOM. In ver. 5 I have to drag the darn thing off to the side to see where the market is. Can you fix this?

Other than this, I love the new version. Thanks!
