We are not sure exactly what you are referring to in terms of the Trading DOM tending to "snap". But here are some things to look into:

1) It sounds like your Global Chart Update Interval is 40ms. Make sure that is the Global setting - this is set with Global Settings >> General Settings >> General >> Chart Update Interval in Milliseconds. Also, if this is the Global setting, then 40ms for the Global Setting creates a lot of overhead in terms for the study calculations in the charts. Our recommendation is to keep chart updates around 500ms and Trading DOM updates around 100 (if you want to make them 40, that is fine).

2) Check the method you have selected for the Constant Range Scale Mode under the Scale Settings. The default is Keep the Last Bar Within View, but you might want to change this to Re-Center to Last Price on Every Update. Try the various options to see if there is one that works better for you. Refer to the options at the following link:
