1. Cumulative Delta Bars have option of Reset at start of Trading Day. If I choose No, then according to the documentation on your site, the CD will be calculated as a cumulative sum from the beginning of the chart. Here is my confusion. In chart settings, I have loaded 30 days of data. So, when I scroll the chart to zoom in & out, the CD value changes, which I don't want. If I have loaded 30 days, then irrespective of scrolling, the CD should show value corresponding to 30 days only. Else, choosing NO option in this study of no use. Am I missing anything?

2. How to plot yesterday's HIGH-LOW & Fibonacci retracements/extensions?

1.

This definitely cannot be the case. The value of each bar will not change other than at the last bar as the chart is updated in real-time.

We would need to see images of the chart showing what you are seeing so we can explain why you see what you do.

2. Use the following studies:
Daily OHLC
Auto Retracement/Projection

Hi - All solved!
But for point 2 - I still didn't understand how to plot it using any study.
I want to plot on today's chart, Fibonacci retracements & extensions of yesterday's range i.e. high-low! Thats it.
Auto retracement/Projection doesn't do it!
please help!

The Auto Retracement study does not support referring to a prior day.

Since every other platform has this kind of indicator/study, I can only request you to include it asap (may be in next update).
BTW - the code should be small & easy as seen in other platforms.

We will look into this but it is not simple to add.

This can be done with the Auto Retracement study. First add Daily OHLC with Reference Days Back set to 1. Then add Auto Retracement/Projection and set Based On study to Daily OHLC.

When I chose Retracement based on what you explained, it worked fine. But, when I choose projection, the chart shrinks and become small. Any suggestions. Thanks!

You need to set the study scale for the Auto Retracement/Projection to 'Same as Region'.
