Please ...

We need to be able to configure RTQ window output format on a
per-signal basis.  (Make a group configurable that way, or
something.)

Why?

In these days of increased correlation between equities and
particular currency pairs, it's pretty much essential that any active
trader have an eye on both currencies and equities on the same
screen.

Even with dollar-based equities, this results in a necessary extra
TWO zeros appended to every equity price if one is also looking at
EUR/USD, which of course is priced to 4 places.

For yen-based equities, one must put up with FOUR useless zeros
appended to *every* equity value in order to get an accurate price
for EUR/USD.  This takes up incredible screen real estate if one is
also looking at bid/ask, as well as open-high-low.  Counting
'current', we are now looking at a total of TWENTY-FOUR useless
horizontal zeros in the case of Japan.  "Just" TWELVE useless
horizontal zeros in the case of dollar-based equities.

This begins to add up, you know ...

Can anything be done about this?  It's one of the few really "clunky"
parts of AB.  But "clunky" it is because of this inability to format
to suit.  It looks like the RTQ window was borrowed from another
company and never re-worked.  ^_^

Anyone else think this is a good idea?
