Just a wild, unrealistic thought

Posted by: DTravel on Jan 17, 14:32 in response to secretstalker's post I really think HSX should fix/address some of the...

What if HSX got rid of Reset?  As someone who's done programming I know that its either impossible or way more trouble than its worth.  I also realize that the function of Reset is bookkeeping and cleanup so you wouldn't want to entirely remove it from the system but....

Most of the issues and complaints seem to be centered around the impression that after the nightly Reset it takes relatively few shares bought/sold to change the price and the price's sensitivity seems to decrease as the number of shares traded that day increases.  What if some of the tracking that is currently reset every night after midnight PST was changed to a rolling 24 hour setup?  Instead of setting the number of shares traded on stocks to zero each night the "# Stocks Traded Today" became "# Stocks Traded Last 24 Hours"?  Every hour drop the shares traded 24-25 hours previously from the running tally (or every three hours drop 24-27 hours prior, or every six hours, the exact interval can be tweaked).  That would eliminate the "Golden Time" immediately after reset when violitality seems to at its highest and make price manipulation more difficult.

At any rate I know that with only Antibody manning the store it would be more work than is practical but maybe its something to think about?  (Assuming I was able to sufficiently explain what I'm thinking of.)
