Post From: BID -ASK Highlight on DOM?

Thank you for the reference GANZ

IMO an improved ladder would include an option to bold/increase the font size of the bid ask...have the last price highlight option remain...you also could option the font color of the bid ask....

so for example prices that are firing off at the offer would have a green bold font and the price box would be highlighted yellow....
...prices that are firing off the bid would have a red bolded font and also have the same yellow highlighted price box....being able to see green/red behind yellow would provide a clear indication of immediate market sentiment and a central focul point in the DOM...

the bid-ask columns provides price location...knowing whether price traded at the bid or the ask provides intent...by highlighting the bid-ask it allows you to see immediate intent of buyers and sellers....

many traders are not tape readers...have a different time frame...or different process...that's what makes a market...for 10+ years part of how I read price action in THE DOM is based on what I described...

I am certain many users find the many customization options that you offer highly usable...As an NT subscriber for the past 8+ years I also like having many of these options available...especially the % of bids/offers in the DOM...as this is not available in the NT DOM.
but nuts and bolts must always come first....

run a poll?
