If you are asking for both how to get the Opening Range and how to get the lines above/below, then the Initial Balance can work to get the Opening Range. For whatever study you use, you need to ensure that your bars are evenly divisible into the range you want. For example, since you want a 30 minute opening range, as long as you have 1 minute, 3 minute, 5 minute, 10 minute, or 30 minute bars, you can gat what you want. But if you have 4 minute or 60 minute bars, it will not work properly.

In terms of the upper/lower lines, since you want multiple lines, the Spreadsheet Study is the easiest way to do it. Just reference the study you use to create the Top/Bottom of the range and then add the amount you want to that (or multiply, if you want to do it as a percentage).

For example, to add 10.00 to the price of the Top of the range, you would enter a formula like:
=ID1.SG1@$3 + 10

This will give you a straight line across the chart.
