Definition
The highest price an asset has ever reached.
An all time high is exactly what it says. It matters psychologically because above it, every single holder is in profit, which removes the supply of people waiting to break even before selling.
That is also why old all time highs often act as resistance on the way back up. A lot of people who bought there have been waiting a long time to get out.
In practice
Watch how price behaves at a previous all time high. Reclaiming it convincingly is a different signal from touching and rejecting it.

Support and resistancePrice zones where buyers or sellers have repeatedly stepped in.Bull marketA sustained period of rising prices and rising optimism.Market capPrice multiplied by circulating supply. Far more useful than price alone.

Want this explained out loud?
Some of these land faster in conversation than in writing. Sessions are one to one and you can ask anything, including the things that feel too obvious to ask.
