You can begin to use the Market Depth Historical Graph feature in Sierra Chart prerelease version 1428 and higher.

This feature is not yet complete, but it is functional. It may not work completely perfect yet and there is still a lot more related development we are doing to it.

Follow the below steps.

1. Update Sierra Chart following these instructions:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/download.php#FastUpdate

2. After the update is complete, select Global Settings >> Symbol Settings.

3. Locate the Symbol pattern for the symbol in the list of symbols, that you want to use the market Depth Historical Graph study with.

4. Select the Intraday tab.

5. Enable the Record Market Depth Data option.

6. Press OK.

7. Reconnect to the data feed with File >> Disconnect and File >> Connect to Data Feed after altering the symbol settings.

8. Go to the chart.

9. Select Analysis >> Studies.

10. Add the Market Depth Historical Graph study.

11. Press the Settings button. Set the colors as you require.

12. Press OK. Press OK.

13. As the market depth data begins to become active you will see the color-coded rectangles on the chart.

14. The market depth data is permanently recorded in depth files. One for each day.

This feature is available currently to all users on Sierra Chart service package 5. For users with direct accounts, it will continue to be available. For those with accounts that are through brokers, a higher service level will be required but that is still yet to be finalized.

Most importantly, do not ask for any enhancements to this feature because we are still not yet done with it. And we may not respond to any questions about it or reports of problems with it because it is still under development. If you encounter any problems with it, just wait rather than making a posting about it now.
