Accessing VbP Peaks and Valleys

Hello,

Is it possible to access the Volume by Price study's Peaks or Valleys (High or Low Volume Nodes) programmatically (via Color Bar Based On Alert Condition, Spreadsheet Study, or ACSIL Study)?

I tried accessing SG19 (Volume Valleys in VbP), which properly displays the Volume Valleys on my charts, but the Color Bar by Alert that I wrote to test access showed no results (it just was supposed to color the bar if SG19 was non-zero). I also don't see the value for Valleys in the Chart Values for Tools window when I click around (I do have Display Study Name, Subgraph Names and Subgraph Values - Global enabled as well as Display Name and Value in Chart Value Windows).

While on this topic, is it possible to also access the developing Valleys (and Peaks) like how the Volume Value Area Lines study draws the developing Point of Control, Value Area High, and Value Area Low when Draw Developing Value Area Lines is enabled, please? This would display the Peaks and Valleys (High and Low Volume Nodes) where they were in the past as well as current data.

Thank you for your help.
