Hi,

Pls help - the market depth indi is slow today. was ok last week. Had this problem some months ago, but then disappeared.

Setting is to show last depth, not max depth. Also sierra chart server setting is se to 'Yes', on 'allow market depth'. Update interval is 500 ms, depth is 60 rows..


I am on latest 2333 version.

Thanks

The basic problem was that you were not scrolled to the end of the chart, therefore it was showing you the depth data after the last bar for the bar that is last shown on the screen. You will note in the documentation that it states for the Input Display Market Depth Quantities after Last Bar that "When this is set to Yes, the depth quantities for the last visible bar will be extended from the last bar to the right side of the chart". Refer to the documentation here:
Market Depth Historical Graph: Display Market Depth Quantities After Last Bar

In addition to this, you have the Lock Fill Space active, which makes it a bit harder to know if you are at the end of the chart or not. Refer to the following documentation for information about how to know if you are scrolled to the end of the chart or not:
