Looking for a way to calculate the net change from the opening price of the 1st bar in the chart (I have 365 days displayed) until the last trade (current price).

Ultimately, I am looking to compare this result to same result of another chart.

Any suggestions?

The closest is the Percent Change Since Open study:

We could create another study to calculate the actual change.

I would be interested in a "change from X bars ago" study or something similar.

This can be done by using the Bar Difference study:

Can I use a higher value than 100 for the Input Data 2 offset field?

Yes we will remove that restriction in the next release.
