Market History

The Market History window lists trades as they occur for the current market. Each trade will have a price, volume, and time. The color of the text indicates whether it was a bid or offer that completed the trade (second half of the trade).

Switch between market months by using the market tab at the top of the Market History window.

To open a new Market History window, Click the Market History option from the Main window’s New Items Menu.
