Post From: Studie Market Depth Historical Graph refreshed with Bar Period Type

This actually is not true as you describe it:
because the "Market Depth Historical Graph" studie will only update when a trade arrives (1 additional contract in the "Time and Sell" or "Numbers Bars" or a price shift).

The actual behavior is described here:
Market Depth Historical Graph: Market Depth Historical Graph Timing in Relation to Chart Bar Date-Times

If you have a very short timeframe per bar like 1 second, the behavior would look like you are describing. In the case of a chart bars with a length of like 5 or 10 minutes, there will not be an issue until the bar actually completes.

There is a solution by using a special data recording which is documented in the section linked above.

Here is an example of this:

You must be running the very latest release which is 2393. This recording mode has been enhanced for this specific purpose.
