A reset window is a fixed shop-local hour (or range of hours) during which the strategy does no dynamic pricing and instead resets the price to a baseline value. This is useful in two situations:
  • Avoid price battles: when two competitors keep undercutting each other, the price collapses. A regular reset breaks the spiral and returns the price to a healthy level.
  • Phases that don’t need dynamic pricing: during times with enough organic demand, constant repricing isn’t necessary. The reset keeps the price stable.

How it works

  • Outside reset hours, the strategy behaves normally — it matches or undercuts the cheapest competitor.
  • During a reset hour, the price is reset to the default price. If no default price is set, the compare-at price is used — but only when the Fallback to compare at price option is enabled.
  • The reset price still respects the minimum price: if it would fall below, no change is created.

Configuring reset hours

Default (reset) price – the price the variant is reset to during reset hours. Reset hours – semicolon-separated hours in the shop timezone:
  • Single hours: 19;23 → 19:00 and 23:00
  • Ranges: 8-12;18-22 → 08:00–12:00 and 18:00–22:00
  • Ranges across midnight: 22-2 → 22, 23, 0, 1, 2
Times apply in the shop timezone (default Europe/Berlin). The advanced settings let you override the reset hours per weekday (Monday–Sunday); an empty weekday field uses the default reset hours.
