Hello,

I am learning to use the Trade DOM in Sierra Chart.

Could you please explain what each column in the Trade DOM represents?

Specifically, I would like to understand:

Which columns show pending orders?
Which columns show executed trades?
Which columns represent Buy and which represent Sell?
Which DOM columns should I enable if I want to see all available Order Book information?
Does the free trial include pending orders (Market Depth / Level 2), or is this feature only available with a paid service or specific market data?
When using XAUUSD, is it possible to see pending buy and sell orders in the Trade DOM? Or does XAUUSD not provide a full order book?

Thank you.

The information on the each of the columns can be found starting here:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Chart/Trade DOM Column Descriptions

The Trial includes market depth data for products traded on the CME Group and EUREX. XAUUSD, however, is a CFD, and we do not have any market depth data for our CFD data from FXCM.

Hi,

I understand that XAUUSD (CFD) does not provide Market Depth.

I would like to ask about GC (COMEX Gold Futures).

Does the free trial include full Level 2 / Market Depth data for GC?

Will I be able to see all pending buy and sell orders in the Trade DOM for GC during the trial?

Thank you.

GC is not a valid symbol while on a trial. Refer to the following for what symbols are available while on a trial:
Sierra Chart Trial Account

The symbols that will have the full market depth that are available during the trial are the following:
YM?##-CBOT
MES?##-CME
FDAX?##-EUREX
