I am trying to find a Sierra Chart study or drawing tool, but I do not know the correct name for it.

What I am looking for is something where I can manually select an area on the chart and Sierra Chart will create a profile for that selected range.

I would like the profile to show:

Value Area High (VAH)
Value Area Low (VAL)
Point of Control (POC)

Ideally I would also like:

VAH, VAL and POC displayed as horizontal lines.
The lines extended into the future as potential support/resistance levels.
The ability to use those levels on other charts.

I have seen traders draw profiles over specific areas and then use the resulting VAH, VAL and POC as key trading levels, but I do not know what the Sierra Chart study or tool is called.
Can the VAH, VAL and POC lines remain on the chart after the profile is removed?

i will attached images of such profiles so you know what i mean.
