Hi, I finally determined by digging through the documentation & Support board that; - No market depth is provided during your 15-day trial period - http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SCRealTimeFOREX.php - In order to get Market Depth you need to link SC to a data/trading account - http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_FileMenu.html#OpenMarketDepthWindow - SC cannot display market depth through IB brokers for US equities and presumably ASX equities (I am yet to open an IB account but this was stated here) LEVEL 2 My question is, are there any real time data instruments supplied by SC during the trial period (Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Forex and CFD Data Service) to allow testing of the Market depth/DOM/volume profiling/TPO features of the platform? It would be a great help if I could test/view these features before settling on a platform and linking to a broker and moving forward. NB: I was unable to attach a screenshot of how my market depth window looks as the browse popup stopped working for some reason. At the moment I can only see 1-line of depth with Bid/Ask size always 1 for the Forex/CFD offered as real time data during the trial period, real time updates of chart\chartbooks is working fine. - I may be able to upload an image later if a screenshot is required. Thanks for your help. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2015-11-30 03:08:47

First, Market Depth is the same as Depth of Market (DOM). Market Depth Data is not used for Volume Profiles or TPO Profiles or Numbers Bars. There is zero reliance on it for these features. So you can use any of these features without any reliance on market depth data. The easiest way to access market depth data during the trial is to use the Bitcoin Data service: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/Bitcoin.php Most or all of those symbols will provide market depth data. Be sure to look at the BTCUSD ones. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users. Try to keep your questions brief and to the point.
