Hello Penny,

You can use the HIGHEST instruction for that :
```
lasthigh = HIGHEST[55](high)
```
It returns the previous high over the last 55 periods over the current timeframe.

Hmm sorry… that is not clear 🙂

But, if your request is just a simple comparison between the current bar high and the 55 days highest, here is the code :
```
lasthigh = HIGHEST[55](high)

muchhigher = high>lasthigh[1]
```
Then use this boolean result in your condition :
```
if muchhigher then
...
endif
```
or directly into your SCREENER instruction :
```
SCREENER [muchhigher]
```

Yes you can!

If your variable is:
```
lasthigh = HIGHEST[55](high)
```
Then you can catch what was its value 5 days before with:
```
5daysbefore = lasthigh[5]
```
Then you can make your conditional statement with this 2 variables.
