Market Depth and scrolling of the chart

I would like to know how to avoid color changing while scrolling through the chart.

I believe that the issue is that "Maximum Quantity For Coloring" does not increase the maximum quantity value used for coloring if all visible historical market depth quantities are less than the Maximum Quantity For Coloring

What can I do in order to have coloring independent by the highest viewable market depth value?

This is not changeable. It is how this study functions.

Just for completeness, you can see how the information is calculated from the visible bars in this section of the documentation:

is it possible to modify it as requested by user993113?

coloring changing during scrolling is very annoying to me too. It is not possible to understand how many contracts are in the depth because colors continue to change. I can't think "yellow is equal to x lots" or whatever because my yellow 's value changes with visible bars.

It's a nightmare, maybe because I am used to Bookmap where it's possible to remove the dependace with visible bars

Could you please consider to add an option to have coloring indipendent by visible bars as in Bookmap with "Exact size" activated in its Colormap settings?
