What was the high of the highest volume day?

Hi guys! I need to find the date and high of day price for the day with the highest vol in a year--the same for a date X days from today

#I want to find the number of days were volume was >= X. I want to know the date of 2 specific days. 1) The day with the highest vol. 2) The date where the criteria was #met closest to current date. I Need to know the HOD of those 2 days. Below is the code I managed to write with a few days reading about thinkScript.
#I wasn't able to figure out the rest.

input volCriteria = 1;
def vol = volume (period = "DAY");

# Here is where I count the number of days that met the criteria
def conditionMet = if (vol >= volCriteria)then 1 else 0;
def counter = if conditionMet == 1 then counter[1] + 1 else counter [1];
addLabel(yes,"Leyers: "+ counter);

addLabel(yes," 1 Year Highest vol: "+ HighestAll(vol));

your words are confusing. not sure what you are asking.
here is something to experiment with.
it finds the highest day volume, within x days. set to 20 for testing.
finds the high of that day.

Code:
#vol_hi_day

#https://usethinkscript.com/threads/what-was-the-high-of-the-highest-volume-day.18498/
#What was the high of the highest volume day?

# date and high of day ,
#.. day with the highest vol in a year
#.. a date X days from today

def dat = getyyyymmdd();
#def days = 252;
def days = 20;

def agg = aggregationperiod.day;
def vol = volume(period = agg);
def hi = high(period = agg);
def daycnt = if hi != hi[1] then daycnt[1] + 1 else daycnt[1];
def hivol = highest(vol, days);
def hivoloff = GetMaxValueOffset(vol, days);
def hivolhi = getvalue(hi, hivoloff);

addlabel(1, "highest vol " + hivol, color.yellow);
addlabel(1, "days to highest vol " + hivoloff, color.yellow);
addlabel(1, "high of highest vol " + hivolhi, color.yellow);

#---------------------------------
# test stuff

input test1 = no;
addchartbubble(test1 and !isnan(close), 0,
#vol + "\n" +
hivol + "\n" +
hivoloff + "\n" +
hivolhi
, color.yellow, no);
#
