Auto Re-centered - This will make the ladder remain static while the best bid and offer are on the screen. If either the best bid or offer is not visible (e.g due to a wide market or market movement) then the ladder will automatically shift instantly to the center of the market.
Smooth - The market scrolls up and down to constantly center itself.
Centered - Stays centered on the current market best bid.
Depth - This shows the bids and offers as a list instead of on a ladder. Prices where there are no bids/offers are hidden. This can be helpful in wide or thin markets
• Mouse Follow Ensures that the mouse remains in the row that contains a specific price. If this is enabled then resting the mouse pointer over a bid or offer price will cause the system to automatically move the mouse pointer when the market moves so that the mouse remains over the same price row. Having the mouse remain over the same price row lowers the risk of submitting an order at the incorrect price.
