Post From: Depth of Market displays different numbers in DOM and Market Depth Historical Graph

The first thing to check, although we do not think this is the case, is that the data that is displayed after the last bar is the Last market depth data and not the Max market depth data. In other words, ensure that the Input for Depth Quantity Type to Display After Last Bar is set to Last Depth. Refer to the information here:
Market Depth Historical Graph: Depth Quantity Type to Display After Last Bar

Offhand, the main reason we can think of for what you are seeing is that the Chart Update Intervals for the two charts are different. Take a look at both and ensure that they are both set to the same setting (typically this would be set to the Global Setting for both). Refer to the following:
Chart Settings: Chart Update Interval in Milliseconds (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Display >> Chart Update Interval menu)

One other thing to do is to look at the Market Depth in the chart against the same Market Depth in the same chart in the DOM on the chart. That way you would not need to worry about updating time differences. I have personally done a lot of work recently on the Market Depth Historical Graph and looked at these numbers in comparison to one another and I have never seen a disconnect between the data when using the same chart.
