Suggestions for Forex Tester Online UI Enhancements

1. Data Integrity for HK33HKD Index

  • Issue: Missing data between 01:00 AM – 02:59 AM causes disruptive gaps at the 9:15 AM session open.

  • Request: Fill historical data gaps during this critical pre-market window to ensure accurate backtesting for strategies reliant on continuity.

2. Smooth Candles Visualization

  • Request: Introduce a "Smooth Candles" toggle to minimize abrupt gaps between candles, improving visual clarity during volatile periods.

3. Improve Interface Fluidity with Higher Refresh Rate

  • Current Issue: Chart navigation and animations during backtesting feel sluggish, likely due to a low refresh rate (~30Hz).

  • Request: Upgrade the chart panel’s refresh rate to 60Hz/120Hz to ensure smoother interactions (e.g., scrolling through historical data, zooming, or replaying trades). This would enhance the overall user experience by making the interface feel more responsive and visually seamless.

4. Fibonacci Tool Customization

  • 4.1 Level Value Visibility: Option to hide price/value labels on Fib levels.

  • 4.2 Label Positioning: Allow placement adjustments (Left/Center/Right & Top/Middle/Bottom).

  • 4.3 Decimal Precision: Reduce default decimal places from 3 to 1 (e.g., display 0 instead of 0.000 where appropriate).

  • 4.4 Font Customization: Enable adjustable font size for Fib level labels.

  • 4.5 Ratio Display Standardization: Show ratios as 1.0 (100%) and 0.618 (61.8%) instead of "100" or "61.8" for intuitive readability.

5. Text Annotation Borders

  • Request: Add a border option for text annotations to improve visibility against chart backgrounds.

6. Reward-to-Risk Line Simplification

  • Issue: Outer lines of Buy/Sell markers obscure precise price levels.

  • Request: Remove outer lines and retain only the central line for accurate price reference.

7. Rectangle Tool Flexibility

  • Request: Add options to:

    • Remove border lines entirely.

    • Adjust border opacity.

    • Set line thickness to 0px (effectively hiding borders).


Additional Notes

  • These changes would significantly improve usability for technical traders relying on precision and visual clarity.

  • Prioritizing items 1 (data gaps) and 3 (refresh rate) would address critical functionality issues.
