Depth of Market Confussion
14 Sep 2020, 14:20

Dear members

I hope you are doing well.

I have a confussion.

One broker shows me this:

The other broker shows me this:

So, for broker one it shows amounts like these:

100.00 250.00 50.00 This means in lots, right?

But for broker two it shows two decimals ,00 but it shows 20 000 000.00 is this in lots or in millions? if it is in million, why does it show two decimals, it can not be possible... I think it's in lots.

But why such big difference between 300 lots broker A and 20 000 000 (20k lots) broker B. Liquidity providers?

Thank you so much

Volume DO(Market)

I didnt think forex traders use DOM given there is no centralised exchange showing "market" depth and as
such can only show local "broker" depth?

maybe I'm wrong and there is a way to see market depth so would like to hear more on this?

thanks

Hi tradex1,

The absence of a centralized exchange does not exclude the possibility of different pools of liquidity with different market depths.
