Is it possible to have an alert on cumulative delta bars? For instance, if the size of the bar is bigger than 60 (I see this can be a positive and negative number). How can I set an alert on cumulative delta bars?

You need to setup the Alert as you would with any other study - by using the Subgraph data that makes up the study. For the Cumulative Delta Bars, you have Open/Close/High/Low subgraphs, so to find the size of a bar, you would subtract the Low from the High, and since it's possible for one to be positive and the other negative, you would take the Absolute Value of the result. If you are entering the alert on the Cumulative Delta Bars study alert tab, then the alert would look like the following:
=ABS(SG2 - SG3) > 60
