What should the price glass be like?

 

I am writing a price tumbler for the CODO BASE and am confronted with a misunderstanding of what it should be. I drew the standard base - three columns, asc, bid and price. But what to add further to it?

Who knows, please advise.

Here is the draft version.

From the picture you can see that you've never worked with the glass.

This is what a standard glass looks like

Top ASK, bottom BID

Added

And this is how the cup looks like in MT5

You're not quite right. I worked with the price tumblr a long time ago. It was on the TWS and NJ platform. Structurally my stack is similar to those stacks because I got used to them back then. I don't quite understand the configuration of MT cup. Asc is always at the top, and bid at the bottom and to combine them in one column is not very convenient in my opinion.

The whole world uses this particular tumbler configuration, BUT

You know best....

 

Yes, buttons can be added, like in the trading panels. I see too much empty space, it should be cut. Better yet, make the visual part fully customizable.

It's all customizable in Quicksilver, you can make any configuration of a cup.

It's all adjustable in QuickBooks, you can make any configuration of the tumbler.

About the buttons. I know that we need to add buy and sell, as well as lot setting window. Can be added at the bottom, as in MT. But, it could also be on the sides, in the empty spaces. Also, limit orders seem to be set by clicks on boxes.

I was asking what features and options to add to it.
 
Make it so that your glass appears from the mt5 glass, and then another one, and then a bottle. Also, make the flowers around it look nice.
 

The TWS tumbler seemed to have a histogram, but I don't remember what it showed...

There was also an L2, but it doesn't seem to be in the MT.

And so:

1. Add buy, sell, lot, take and stop buttons (that's easy).

2. Set pending by click on cell and close by click on cross (need to think about it).

3.?

4.?
