I've never heard of a Roman Chair Squat, so I did a Google search. I came up with this link. Hope it helps.

You should go at least to parallel. Most of the benifit comes from squating deep for this exercise.

This exercise removes the posterier chain from the exercise. Make sure you incorporate adequate hamstring exercises.

I couldn't find this exercise on exrx.

I did find it here.

Why did you select this obscure exercise?
