Sum of volume in standard Depth of Market
Sum of volume in standard Depth of Market

Adding additional row of data to standard Depth of Market summarizing all the volume for buy/sell orders (separately).
This way you could take a quick look on the Depth of Market and have an idea how it is shaped without the need of analyzing all the volume amount for all the prices. There is a visualisation of that with bars, but values are relative and not summed up. The bar takes 100% width for the highest volume, but you don't have an idea how much that actually is until you read the volume amount itself. Assuming the view is updated several times a second, trying to sum it manually is a difficult task to do.

yes ctrader is simply not using the depth of market data fully. with such kind of data there could be amazing stuff inside charts and also dom itself.
