Order book
The instrument panel is three zones in one window: clusters on the left, the tick tape in the middle and the order book on the right. All trading control is concentrated here.

|---|---|---|
| Clusters | A “price × time” grid with the traded volume. A double click expands the clusters to full width and hides the tick tape, another one brings it back. | Settings → Clusters |
| Tick tape | The stream of exchange trades at their prices, new ones on the right. | Tick tape |
| Order book | Orders at every price, trading by click, order badges, TP/SL lines, position zone. | Order book display settings |
Zone borders are dragged with splitters, the width is remembered for the tab.
