Feature request: increased bid-ask spread protection

[Chris Wu]

Hi,

I have a suggestion for the PTL Trader.  I think if you add in a feature where the program won't trade a pair that has spreads over X amount.  For example, set X = 0.10.  PTL Trader won't trade any pairs that have a spread of over $0.10.  This will probably prevent disasters in very volatile markets where spreads become big.  Thanks.

Best regards,

Chris

Hello Chris,

the protection again increased spreads is already there. This is the reason why there are two Z-scores - Z-score ASK and Z-score BID. If spreads grow, the difference between both Z-scores grows too and prevents entering position.

This protection is there since the first version of PTL Trader. Since version 1.3.0, both Z-scores are displayed separately.
