    The new Depth of Market allows placing, modifying and deleting orders quickly and with maximum clarity providing best opportunities for profitable trading.

  4. Terminal: The time of opening and closing the orders, execution of deals and placing positions is now displayed up to seconds in the list of opened orders and positions, trading history and trade reports.

    bool  ResourceReadImage(
       const string      resource_name,       // name of the graphic resource for reading

       );
