I saw that there was the ability to download the market depth data, and I deleted the recorded market depth on my computer to free up some space, and figured I would just redownload the data when I needed it. But I can't figure out how to actually re download it? It is enabled in global settings, but my chart is only showing 5 days, and market depth is set for 30 days. I have reloaded the chart, and unsurprisingly that did nothing.

To re-download the historical market depth data from a particular Date-Time in the chart. Add the Chart Shortcut Command "Download Depth Data from Date-Time" through Global Settings >> Customize Chart Shortcut Menu. To use this command, right click on the chart at the point in time you want to start the download at, and select the command.

You can only download the last 15 days of historical market depth data.

Damn, I was not aware of this. Did I over look some documentation? I would not have deleted all of my depth, but it may have been my own carelessness in not reading carefully enough.

We will allow up to 60 days of market depth data to be downloaded.

We need to make a software change for this and it should be available before Sunday evening.
