Indicator Name: ClusterDelta_#TS_DOM
The #TS_DOM indicator is an indicator that displays DOM (Depth of Market) known as orders book and ticks stream also known as Time&Sales. The indicator does not accumulate data and shows the data as it comes from the exchanges. All data goes online only. Above and below the current price the total number of orders are displayed (above the price - the sell limits, and below the price - the buy limits)..
The indicator contains several controls for organizing the workspace. Using the "Move" button (by clicking on it), you can move the window, and the indicator window height (which initially adjusts to the chart window height) is adjusted by dragging the box icon in the lower right corner of the indicator (to drag, click on the box and release the left button), change the position of the box, and press again to fix the new position of the indicator. When you press the T&S button, the tape starts/stops displaying. Pressing the DOM button reflects to displaying DOM (orders book) data. The orders book can be moved by the box, which is always positioned at the current price between the ASK and BID offers. If you move this control close to the left (or right) part of the screen, the orders book automatically changes the drawing direction.
The indicator receives data from the exchange and normalizes prices (number of decimal places) for the current instrument.
The ticks stream comes from top to bottom. This indicator does not provide for the ability to view history or scroll to previous data.
