Yes, there is a strategy name and you can see all your parameters but it would be helpful to be able to define some kind of alias (user entered text field) as one strategy can be used with different parameters and settings. So alias can be useful if you have many stategies (or strategy-settings combinations) and comments field to be able to restore why this combination is here and so on.

You need to remember why you put that strategy to the SM?? To me it sounds like feature creep and overloading the GUI.

A strategy-params-settings combination - yes, I need this.

Let's say I have 20 strategies. I can use one strategy for Russian futures, stocks, US futures, US stocks - all with different params' values etc. You also may need to use different param values for the same strategy-dataset combination - it can be used for improving robustness. So it can be many-many combinations. Do I need comments and aliases? - Absolutely)).

It's this feature that is to prevent GUI overloading)).

So as I've said that comments field can be about why you added this combination. There also can be a specialised field for "why". I've recently added a request about Strategy Ranking persistence (https://www.wealth-lab.com/Discussion/A-lack-of-persistence-in-Strategy-Ranking-tool-6841), so this specialised "why" field can refer to a backtest and its results.

So you can check at any time what is the base for this combination to be here, to check whether it's up to date and so on.

This "why" field is more experimental though).

More columns would indeed overload the GUI for everyone. To accomplish this you can simply append info to your strategy's name.

https://www.wealth-lab.com/Discussion/Can-you-store-columns-settings-with-Workspace-6057 - This one is to prevent table overloading. If you are talking about Strategy Settings window - you always can use tabs for grouping settings.

You know I'm strongly opposed to that request.
