I wanted to share an algorithm where you can generate yesterday (9:30am - 4:00pm) High from 5-min 24hr data. I used Math.Max method (introduced earlier to me by Alexandre Catarino) and Rolling Windows.
1st you find intraday High between those hours; then you make an assumption that intraday High up to 4pm is that day's High. Lastly you place those 'intraday Highs up to 4pm' into a RollingWindow.
RollingWindow[1] is Yesterday's High. RollingWindow[2] is Day Before Yesterday High.

You could reset _todayMax to a non-positive number (less or equal to zero), since financial assets cannot have non-positive price. _todayMax = 1 works for ES, but what if we want to us this logic to a penny stock?
Also, please consider using Schedule Events wherever it is possible. E.g.:
// In Initialize Schedule.On( DateRules.EveryDay(_symbol), TimeRules.At(16, 0), () => { dayHighHistory.Add(_todayMax); });

Thank you for your comment, again.
I adjusted my algorithm according to your suggestions. Also, now RollingWindow[0] is Yesterday's High, if you are looking for Yesterday High during Market hours before 4pm today.
