Whenever you open a Depth window, the color green means that the login member has an active order in at that row. This is found in a Normal and Cumulative Depth window.

Additionally: Once the Cumulative Depth window has been opened, you can use the shortcut key F4, in order to toggle between the view of the normal and cumulative depth windows.
