HIGH is the highest price over the selected lookback. It is a rolling resistance line and a common breakout trigger.

A close above the prior HIGH is a breakout read. Failure to clear it after several tests can mean the ceiling is holding. The line itself does not say the next bar will follow through.

Add HIGH to a mix as the breakout level, then require volume, Force Index, or a trend filter so the entry is not a lone stop-run through the high.
