Arrow on highest CLOSE

I am looking for a script to put on a daily chart that would show an arrow on the candle, during a 200 day period, whereby the candle is the highest CLOSE of the period, not the highest high.

I have the following HOWEVER this gives a result whereby the arrow is on the highest high, not the highest CLOSE.

Any help is appreciated. TY

input aggregationperiod = Aggregationperiod.DAY;
input length = 200;

input showonlylastperiod =yes;

plot alltimehigh;
if showonlylastperiod and !isnan(close(period = aggregationperiod)[-1]) { alltimehigh = double.nan; } else {alltimehigh=highest(close(period = aggregationperiod)[-displace], length);}
alltimehigh .setdefaultcolor(color.yellow);
alltimehigh.setpaintingstrategy(PaintingStrategy.ARROW_UP);

See if this helps. This keeps finding through hclose the closes that meet your highest code. The plot then finds the highestall (last one) that occurred and plots a boolean (1/0) arrow at the high of that bar.

Ruby:
input aggregationperiod = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
input length = 200;
input displace = 0;


def hclose = if Highest(close(period = aggregationperiod)[-displace], length)
             then close
             else if close > hclose[1]
             then close
             else hclose[1] ;

plot alltimehighclose = close == HighestAll(hclose);
alltimehighclose .SetDefaultColor(Color.YELLOW);
alltimehighclose.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);
alltimehighclose.SetLineWeight(4);
