Deals in the updated MetaTrader 5 synthetic Market Depth chart

The updated chart in MetaTrader 5 build 2755 displays all transactions executed on the exchange, which are now shown as colored circles.

• Red circles show Sell trades.
• Blue circles show Buy trades.
• Green is used when the direction is undefined. If an exchange does not provide trading direction data, this characteristic is determined based on the deal price as compared to Bid and Ask. A Buy transaction is executed at Ask or a higher price and a Sell transaction is executed at Bid or a lower price. If the transaction price is between Ask and Bid, the direction is considered to be undefined.

The circle size depends on the deal volume. The volumes are additionally shown as a histogram below the tick chart.

Depth of Market is one of the basic tools reflecting supply and demand for liquid tradable assets.
