Your questions are not really "Programming Help", so you did not need to mark it as such. Programming Help is for help with ACSIL or involved Spreadsheet items. We do not typically respond to Programming Help items (and we often are the ones that set it).

To answer your questions:

1) The item at the bottom of your window is the Numbers Bars Calculated Values study. There are numerous options available that can be displayed, although the difference between the Maximum Ask Volume Bid Volume Difference and the Minimum Ask Volume Bid Volume Difference per bar is not specifically available (there is a cumulative sum of the difference). Look through the options at the following link to see if any of these are what you are looking for:
Numbers Bars: Numbers Bars Calculated Values Subgraph Descriptions

If you can not find exactly what you want, then you can use the Study Subgraphs Difference study to subtract the two items and get the result. There is not a way to get the new data to show up in the table that makes up the Numbers Bars Calculated Values, but you can display the result as a number by using the Draw Style of Value of Subgraph and setting the Width/Size to a value of around 10. You will have to play with it a bit, but you should get the idea and find how to display it the way you want.

Refer to the following items for this:
Study Subgraphs Subtract/Difference

Chart Studies: Value of Subgraph (ACSIL: DRAWSTYLE_VALUE_OF_SUBGRAPH)



2. It can be done bit it is a bit messy. You have to check each level of the bar, which means a long Alert string. To give you the start of what you need it would look like the following just to check the first 3 levels for the Bid 3 times the Ask:
=OR(BVAP(L, 0) > 3 * AVAP(L, 0), BVAP(L + TICKSIZE * 1, 0) > 3 * AVAP(L + TICKSIZE * 1, 0), BVAP(L + TICKSIZE * 2, 0) > 3 * AVAP(L + TICKSIZE * 2, 0))

You would need to continue that above for however many price levels there could be in a bar. Refer to the Alert information at the following link:
