I started drawing Volume profile using the Tools>draw Volume Profiles. Then I made changes and saved it under Analysis from one symbol 'A'. Say now I want to draw volume profile in a new Symbol 'B'. I choose the volume profile I saved in the Analysis. It now draws the volume profile at the same spot as the previous volume profile and copies to all the symbols in my watchlist. I only want it to be displayed in one symbol not all. I want the volume profile to be its single entity for each symbol in my watchlist.

It sounds like you have saved a "Study Collection" that was created from a "Drawn Volume Profile". This would result in what you are seeing.

To have a specific setup for the "Drawn Volume Profile" you need to create a Study Collection and then save that to a specific Tool Configuration. Refer to the following:
Volume By Price Study: Step by Step Instructions to Configure the Draw Volume Profile Tool

With regards to "copies to all the symbols in my watchlist". If you have added the Volume by Price as a study, then it will show on all the charts as you change the symbol through the Watchlist. If you actually have a proper "Drawn Volume Profile" then this will only be associated with the one symbol.
