One thing we want to be clear about, is since the calculation is cumulative, you would only see a difference with the study results when reloading the chart if the first Date-Time in the chart changes. Which it can if loading data based on a number of days, and you have reloaded the chart, in a different day compared to before.

Otherwise, the study result we see is stable. Check to be sure the Bid and Ask Depth Bars study is not based on another study:
