Principle of operation
According to Monitoring Depth, the average size of a limit order is calculated yesterday, today all limit orders are compared to yesterday’s average value, and if today’s limit order is more than the average yesterday, a signal appears on the plate.
Load History loads data on the selected range, while deleting the data previously loaded, if the dates of the ranges match.
