Performance analytics - Data from last 30 days

I'm creating an index of several indicators. The data is for over the last 30 days. I created all of the indicator sources to look at the last 30 days and found a post (can't find it now) stating that indicator sources should almost always collect for 'opened on today'. So I recreated a few of the indicators to test this out and am getting different results. What is the proper recommendation? Since this in development, I want to make sure it's done correctly. Don't want a year to go by and find out it was set up incorrectly. See example of differences in attached.

I *don't* see a downside.   I think they're darn near essential, unless you like "Piranha Teeth" graphs.  
I just read in this thread about indicators doing the aggregation instead of the time series and I wanted to know if someone knew something I didn't.
