Is there a way to disable sticky orders?

Well the hard part is doing proper order execution: if you KNOW the price will go up 5% in seconds you should do a market order since you can't risk not buying before it goes up. But Gekko strategies usually don't know these kind of things. The "sticky order" is conservative in trading but this has benefits:

- you never pay maker fees.
- you never have slippage.
- you never have to pay to cross the spread.

Here is a video where I explain this: https://youtu.be/r0yc1sonYvo

The main thing I want to prevent is people trading on illiquid markets (for example on binance) and doing market orders that end up costing 3% of your money.
