[User Discussion] - Limit Chase - move based on bid/offer change rather than last price change?

After the order is submitted, and the last trade price rises in the case of a Buy order, then the order is adjusted up by the amount the last trade price increased by, no more than the specified Set >> Max Chase for Chase Limit Orders amount.

The behavior I experience, in line with the documentation above:

#1. market trades at bid price
#2. place limit chase at the current bid
#3. market trades at ask
#4. limit chase crosses the spread and fills at the ask

Ideally, at #3 above, the limit chase remains in the queue at the bid price as it may have good queue position. It should only move up by 1 tick if the ask price trades out and becomes the new best bid.

Could this be added as a feature - or with the current ACSIL is it possible to program an order type with this characteristic? i.e. stays pinned to the best bid/ask (or whatever offset from the inside market I choose).
