Anyone know how to see the market depth in ViewPoint. I have the widget set, but it indicates no market depth available.

Hi

There is a an issue with the Market Depth widget. The best bid and offer is shown on the quote widget. The market depth issue will soon be sorted out. 

 

Expected date  for the resolution is Monday 30 January 2017.

Hi Staal

 

You should be able to see this with the MarketDepth widget

From the 1st of March you will have the option to see multiple levels of MarketDepth, shown below.

When you say it is unrealiable what do you mean specifically?

 

Thanks

Thx for responding.

I use it to trade ALSI futures. My comment relates to the fact that it frequently stops updating (goes blank) for me. Often many times per hour. Sometimes I have to rebuild the worksheet to get it going again. Unlikely to be a problem with the setup on my side as other widgets and apps work fine. I have not tried it with less active counters.

Hope that explains my comment?
