Post From: Bid & Ask Depth Bars study

"Each Time and Sales record is equivalent to one trade or one Bid/Ask quote update. The Number of Stored Records applies for each symbol being tracked. Using a high Records setting could potentially take a considerable amount of memory. It is recommended to maintain about 5000 Records. If you use 100000, that is going to consume a lot of memory!"

If each time and sales record is equivalent to one bid/ask quote update, then using a setting of 100,000 isn't even gong to store a days worth of data in a liquid market like the ES.

Would it not make more sense for the bid & ask depth bars to now be stored with the market depth data/ built off the market depth data, instead of the time and sales data?
