Cumulative Volume Delta

Cumulative Volume Delta means cumulative delta for a certain period of time. If classic Delta shows the difference between market buys and sells for each bar separately, Cumulative Delta displays the entire dynamics of balance of market buys and sells starting from a certain point of time (from the beginning of a trading session or contract).
