DeepDom's advanced DOM

DeepDom's DOM (Depth of Market) is a vertical price ladder surrounded by execution and analysis columns. You open it through New → Book → ADV DOM, then pick the instrument. Here are the columns to know.

Placing and managing an order from the DOM

In automatic mode, the order type depends on where the mouse is:

  • Left click on Bid, below price: buy limit; above price: buy stop.
  • Left click on Ask, above price: sell limit; below price: sell stop.
  • Right click Bid: buy market. Right click Ask: sell market.
  • Managing an order: drag to move it, right click to delete it, double click to change the quantity.

OCO strategies (order cancels order) attach a profit target (limit) and a protective stop to the same entry: when one executes, the other is cancelled. Configure it once through the gear icon, then let it do its job.
