Great suggestions - I'll add them to the mix we maintain from this forum and all our customer feedback sources.

As for the print alert you are correct that we set the threshold at 5x before showing an alert. This is to preserve the usefulness of the alert and avoid it becoming a noise factor. Note that 5x is the minimum - you can set a higher value here.

Also the alert's time frame is not 3 minutes. That was just an example to help explain how the alert works. It is calculated by the second.

The definition could have easily read, if a stock prints as many times in a 36 second period as it usually does in 180 seconds, then we report an alert.
