It looks like what you are looking for is the Maximum extent of the Bid/Ask Difference over the entire range of a Zig Zag line. This is not something that is directly supported, but you should be able to accomplish what you are trying to do using the Spreadsheet Study and the Zig Zag study itself. Be aware that there is a particular setting in the Zig Zag study to output additional information to the Spreadsheet. Refer to the documentation for this here:
Zig Zag: Additional Output for Spreadsheets

Also, the documentation for the Spredsheet study can be found here:
Using the Spreadsheet Study

It is beyond the scope of Sierra Chart to help put together a complex spreadsheet like this. But you will find some Spreadsheet example formulas here that may help:
Spreadsheet Example Formulas and Usage

In order to get the bars to look like a single large bar across a range of time, you just need to increase the width of the bar. Refer to the following for this:
Chart Studies: Subgraphs Tab >> Line Width

And finally, in terms of coloring bars based on whether they are above or below, you would need to use the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition study. Refer to the following:
