Can one of you guys tell me how to resize the columns (make them wider) for bid/ask depth so that this doesn't happen?

Currently, you can not specify the width, as it auto sizes to the largest size. I know the 'K' items used to work, something must have changed. I would post it to support and it will get fixed. User defined widths have been asked for before, but I would ask for it again while you are at it. I would think allowing the user to specify a number of characters wide would be easy enough.

Thanks @aslan.

The 'K' doesn't save any space until it's more than 10,000 anyway

9999
9.99K

The 'K' actually takes more space.

I will forward to support.

Mike

Hello Mike,

This was resolved. We were experimenting with abbreviations but that has been removed unless the quantity is more than 10,000 and even in that case, there should now be enough width to allow for the suffix. You are on a pre-release. Please update with Help >> Download Prerelease.

There was still a width issue involving quantities greater than or equal to 10,000 and this has now been worked out in version 778.
