Hi Rakesh,
I have brought up the very same issues you did regarding #2.Once you plot a daily and weekly chart in the same sheet,I believe every other sheet will have the very same layout.And if I am not mistaken,changing a chart in sheet 3 will impact sheet 1.
It makes things very difficult to truly customise as you are bound by these conditions
