Trigger mark?

I'm program challenged. But it would seem that this would be basic.
I have charts set to a fast speed (5 trades per bar), so when my Volume Study hits a certain level, I want to mark that specific price that the Volume was at.

BUT, it flies by so quickly I'm losing valuable seconds to get into a trade at that specific price (=/- per my rules) whiling scrolling back to see the price.

My Question:
Is there a study or a simple copy/paste program sentence to add a "marker" at that price (eg: Say a horizontal line at the price extended right from that point?)that I can see easily as the chart moves along?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Yes you can use the Horizontal Ray drawing tool.

yes, that would be the tool to use. But my question was how do I get it to trigger automatically? I obviously have to set an alert with that tool. But I don't know how to program.
Thank you
