We can do conditional formating (icon) and define the rules and choose an icon for each rule.

Thanks for quick response.

Is it possible to create icon based on previous day values.

Example :

           Yesterday - 5000 -- stright arrow

           Today - 6000 -- cross above arror : indicate data got increase  

Note: Please once again refer my screenshot and please guide me.

you calculate the value for yesterday date (A)and calculate value for today's date(B). Find the difference (B-A). Aplly conditional formatting on the difference.
