[Programming Help] - Draw Value Areas and PoC from day before

Hi,

I would like to see drawed in a 3min chart (and have it in spreadsheet to use it) the VAH and VAL and PoC for the last RTH session (I mean, not today's session but yesterday's). I think it has to be with "Volume Value Area Lines" study, but I frankly cannot get what I want by changing settings.

Any idea how to do it?

Thank you very much.

What study you use depends on how your charts are setup.

If you have a chart that is just the RTH, then the "Volume Value Area Lines" study is the right one. Set the following Inputs as follows:
- Time Period Type: Days
- Time Period Length: 1
- Reference n Periods Back: 1

But if you have a chart with both RTH and ETH, and you just want the RTH, then you would need to use the "Volume by Price" study and set the following:
- Draw Mode: POC, VAH, VAL, VWAP Lines Only
- Number of Periods Back to Reference: 1
- Volume Graph Period Type: One Period from Start Time to End Time
- Start Time: Your RTH Starting Time
- End Time: Your RTH Ending Time
