The fact that it is ending up at the bottom of the region is related to the resulting value for that study. This is controlled by the "Output When Condition is True" Input.

Therefore, if that region keeps a consistent range, then you can use the option for "Use Custom Value" and set it to whatever value is visible at the top of the region.

But if the region changes scaling (i.e. there is not a consistent value to enter for the top of the range), then the best option is to set "Output When Condition is True" to be "Use Input Data" where "Use Input Data" is set to whatever item represents the top of something that is displayed in that region. Then you can use the Offset options to push the item a bit higher so it is not interfering directly with the study displayed in that region.
