You have the right idea, but if you are using the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition, then you need the condition to be true when the Ask Volume at that price is NOT bigger than the Bid Volume (i.e. hide all the POC lines when the condition is not met).

Therefore, your Alert Condition should be the following:
=BVAP(ID1.SG1, 0) >= AVAP(ID1.SG1)

Where ID1.SG1 is the Volume Point of Control study and subgraph.

Note that you do not need to use the IF, as an alert condition evaluates to True/False by default.

Also, make sure that the Color Bar Based On Alert Condition is lower in the list of studies than the Volume POC, as it has a dependency on that study.
