Is there a way to display bid/ask Depth in region 2 as a Histogram instead of Candlesticks.I would like the Bid Depth above the zero line and the Ask Depth below the zero line.Thank you

On the Bid/Ask Depth Bars study change the Input of Calculation Mode to Bid Depth vs Ask Depth. The only difference from what you requested is that Ask Depth is above and Bid Depth is below. The documentation for this can be found here: Bid & Ask Depth Bars For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

Hi ,Thanks for the reply. I attempted to create the Bid/Ask Depth study using the instructions you provided for the Histogram display,but every bar is the same on the bid and ask..any ideas ? I am providing a screenshot from another chart provider showing you the display I'm trying to achieve.Thanks again

Assuming that in the attached image, the display of either the Bid or the Ask is based on whichever is dominant, I have put together a Study Collection that will replicate this for you. You will find the file attached to this post. What this does is color out the non-dominant side using the Color Bar Based on Alert condition study. In order to use the Study Collection, refer to the documentation here: Study Collections: Using a Study Collection Provided by Sierra Chart Support For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

How many depth levels would you recommend for this indicator to calculate? Thank you.
