Post From: _mbo symbol depth not working & question about symbol settings behavior

After a ton of testing I think I finally figured out the cause of my intermittent issues getting the book depth to display in DOM on _MBO symbols.

If I have a chart in my chartbook that has the "Market Depth Historical Graph" study loaded, it will not load the depth for that symbol.

Oddly, if I load the chart dom first without the study, (and it loads the depth correctly as mentioned above), THEN I add the study, everything works fine.

I've reproduced this multiple times, and is definitely the cause of my specific issue.

I'm still on build 2561, so not sure if this has been fixed, but didn't see anything in the release log about it.

@John if you would like more details for a possible bug investigation, let me know. Happy to assist.

*EDIT*: Also, upon further investigation, it seems that having other charts, studies (not even market depth studies), loaded in the chartbook will also sometimes cause the chart dom to not display market depth. So it's not just limited to the market depth study. However, the market depth study is the most direct, consistent, and easily reproducible issue. That can be seen just by one chart dom in the chartbook, and having no studies (works fine) or load with the market depth study (stops proper depth load).

Hopefully this is something that is just happening to me, but sharing here in case it's a larger issue that others are reproducing. And FWIW, I have zero issues on CME books with all the same types of charts and studies.

This only happens when connected to the IB service/API via SC, not if I'm connected only to SC DATA.
