Limiting Depth Levels for Time and Sales Total Ask/Bid Size Depth Studies

Is there a way to limit the number of levels summed in the T&S Total Depth Studies (i.e. only sum the five nearest price levels). I tried setting the Maximum Market Depth Levels to "5" in the Advanced Settings 3 tab, but it appears 10 levels are still being summed.

Thanks.

Yes with this setting:
Data/Trade Service Settings: Maximum Time and Sales Depth Levels (Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Common Other Settings)

This setting does work but it does not affect any prior totals already calculated.

Because the calculation is based on the order book, not actual trades, it won't work in replay. The sum will only be visible when the market is open and there are orders showing in the DOM.

thanks for the response!


but on replay
- orders hitting and lifting the market is showing on my dom
- depth is showing on my dom
- depth is showing on my 'market depth historical study'
- orders hitting and lifting the market is showing on my T&S
- best bid and best ask are showing on my T&S as well for each order line
