What a fertile topic! I think I'll also make a New Year present for Father Christmas ))
From trifle:
* I would really like a tooltip with a variable's value. It's not convenient to add a variable to WatchList every time.
* Simplify the functions. How annoying are endless checks of elementary things when you can't be sure of anything.
Every time I have to check if the history is available and if all the bars are loaded.
It should be simple, convenient and reliable. You specify the data you are going to work with in OnInit, the terminal loads them in synchronous mode and monitors their relevance.
* More flexible settings for the tester. There are a lot of complaints about the tester, the way it tests.
There are some promising ideas:
* The ability to import/export data to the terminal is desperately needed.
* Full-blown creation of synthetic tools and testing on them
* Addressing the terminal's functions (positions, orders, series, terminal, etc.) as objects. These PositionGetInteger() and HistoryDealGetDouble() are some crutches. Sorry.
* Improvement of standard libraries.
P.S. I agree with Vasiliy Sokolov.

Please 24 times. Make a template of the editor view.
That cheesy default view is horrible.
Share your wishes about what needs to be implemented.
This includes the language itself (missing features, graphics capabilities, upgrading the standard library), and the terminal (desktop, other operating systems, mobile systems).
One thing's for sure: locs are forbidden. Any mention of them is punishable by hot iron. No hard feelings afterwards.
1) Own ticks loaded from CSV. The only reason why I'm still using MT4 is that I can load real ticks into it, autogenerated ticks in mt5 is useless and generally harmful.
2) Genetic optimization by its own criterion which is not integrated in OnTester. For example, I want to optimize the result by the total balance divided by Sharpe Ratio :) - If this is not added by OnTester developer, everything is lost.
3) Walk forward optimization. The optimizer should find not only the right parameters but also the duration of backtest and the duration of real trading period.
For example, we give the optimizer 2 years of history, try different parameters and different optimization periods, and get the results that the Expert Advisor needs to be optimized every month on the history of the previous 5 months to maximize profit.
In MT4 in the tester make the testing speed normal: otherwise 31 is slow and 32 is too fast on all ticks.
In MT4, in the tester, make the testing speed normal, because 31 is slow and 32 is too fast on all ticks.
I support
I really miss more advanced optimisation.

I want:
1) Detach the chart of a specific symbol from the window of an MQL program (which can work with any symbol) or introduce a new type of programs run by click.
2) Allow software to work with mouse wheel
3) Include third party fonts as a resource (otherwise I have started porting the svg libraries).
Thanks so much for the kanvas, testing frames and events!
