Post From: Rithmic DOM pulling-stacking restart

Dear Sierra,

Sierra is a magnificent tool. Thank you for that!

The base of my question is:
I have Rithmic as a data provider, so I see a very deep DOM.
Pulling/Stacking counting, as per Sierra's default setting, reset themselves only when the spread gets to them.
However, sometimes a Stacking amount gets pulled after a longer period of having been Stacked and therefore this the net effect is zero, so it does not show as a Pulling (for example at 10.00 AM a level get stacked with 700 contracts, but then after 11.00 AM 700 get pulled: the Pulling/Stacking at this level will show basically no change, ie around zero).
The question:
To avoid the "misunderstanding" described above: It would be useful to have a time setting, where one could limit how long a Pulling or Stacking amount is "remembered".
It is in my view a really important piece of Information and a vital Setting that would enable users to chose how long a Pulling/Stacking is remembered and included into the calculation of the net number.
This could be time-related, or could be defined in renko bar or range chart bars, but in any case in my view the Pulling/Stacking information becomes quickly obsolete and should not be "remembered" too long.

This is a really important piece of Information and a vital Setting that would enable much more visibility. It could be time-related, or could be defined in renko bar or range chart bars, but in any case: the pulling/stacking information becomes quickly obsolete and should not be "remembered".

I have been contacted by others both in the Forum and personally, who see my point and joined in asking the question, so the request appears to be a valid concern.

I would very much appreciate to hear back from you.
