As Marc Galanter has stated, there is no option within the native Numbers Bars study for Sierra Chart that has the full candlestick to the side of the Numbers Bar like it is shown in the image provided, and as you have already discovered, you can't just create the candlestick in Column 1 without some data displayed.

Conversely, you can create thin Candlesticks and use the Volume by Price study to display the volume profile along with the Bid and Ask Prices, but then you will not be able to highlight the various aspects or color the text.

Therefore, our recommendation goes along with with Marc has stated. Use the Numbers Bars study with either the Vertical Bars or Candlestick Body Outline for the Marker Style and setup the rest of the Numbers Bars as you desire.

In addition, to place specific text above/below the bars you need to use a combination of studies. Refer to this post regarding this: Number Bar Ratio (Low Bid Volume or High Ask Vol percent) to display on the chart

To help you get this all started, we have put together a Study Collection based on the post referenced above along with the Numbers Bars study with the Bid x Ask Volumes and a Volume Profile along with the Candlestick Outline. In order to use this Study Collection, refer to the following:
