Summary
Let us set a threshold for price jumps and when we want to follow them:
E.g. some player creates a dead account to drive down prices of an item and underbids by 10 to 15 platinum
Let me set two things:
A threshold to when it should stop automatically lowering the price to match
An x amount of lower bids to when the condition gets skipped.
This could be the case for both buying and selling, but they should be controlable independently ideally
(I see less value for Buy orders as people just won't sell if the Buy and Sell offers deviate too much, maybe thats a feature request for a different issue)
Problem Statement
People underbidding by huge margins or placing wrong orders which leads to Quantframe "blindly" following and decreasing profit margins
Proposed Solution
Example set up of the two conditions:
Condition 1: Do not follow price decreases higher than 5 Platinum.
Condition 2: Is number of listings below me greater than 3.
Case 1:
Rule 1 decides
I list at 100 P.
Player B lists at 90 P
-> Quantframe does not decrease the price as there is only one order below me at 90 Platinum.
Case 2:
Rule 2 wins
I list at 80 P.
5 People list at 70 Platinum.
-> Quantframe follows down to 70 Platinum as more than 3 people made a listing at that price which is active at the same time.
Case 3:
Normal follow takes place
I list at 80 P
Another player lists at 77 Platinum
-> Quantframe follows down to 77 Platinum
Alternatives Considered
I tried playing with SMA and it did not help (as it is not meant to fix this issue)
Use Cases
Anyone who does not mind sitting on items much longer or who sells items where people have a habit of underbidding by "higher" platinum values
