Description

The DOM seems to update incredibly slowly. The "PnL" list below the DOM can be out of date for a long time sometimes, like 1000-2000ms. This makes it incredibly confusing because as the market is always moving and your PnL is so far behind, it is hard to know the real PnL.
PnL should be based off Last, or at least have the option to be based off Last like all other DOM's.
As for speed of the DOM, you should not slow it down. Give people the option to set it to tick-by-tick if their computer is fast enough, don't be like Ninja and purposely slow it down.

Steps to reproduce this issue

Use DOM

Dear Mike, 
Currently TT DOM is based on the Ask and Bid prices, not Last - which explains why it is slower to update than DOM based on Last. Currently the feature to have the choice what to base the DOM on is available only for Interactive Brokers. It may make sense to make that available for TT as well. Changing this to a feature request.

We will add an option for TT that will allow the user to choose how the DOM is updated - absed on Ask/Bid or based on Last.
