The issue is that your "High/Low for Time Period" only covers that specific time. Since you are looking for a crossover event outside of that time frame, it will not occur, as the values for those lines do not exist beyond the specified time. Or, if you prefer, they do exist, but the values are zero, which is why you see the bars colored at the start and end of the High/Low for Time Period period.

You should use the "High/Low for Time Period - Extended" in order to have the line extended out further. Then you can see if a crossover event occurs beyond the given timeframe. Refer to the following:
High/Low for Time Period - Extended
