How to find the maximum of a normalized fit of a histogram

I'd like to find, point, and label the maximum of a normalized fit curve on a histogram

The code I'm using to build the histogram/fit curve is:

        Average_Insert_Time = mean(All_Data); %Find average of data for random codon to mark on histogram
        Histogram = histfit(All_Data,5000,'normal');
        hold on 
        xlim([0 (Average_Insert_Time*2)]);%places average at center of graph
        line([Average_Insert_Time, Average_Insert_Time], ylim, 'LineWidth', 2, 'Color', 'g'); %add average vertical
        hold off

It produces a figure that looks like this:

I want to place a marker on the maximum value of this normalized distribution, which then denotes the Y-value

You can use histcountsto find the frequency of each bin.

N=histcounts(All_Data,200);

Then use max to find the max value and the bin index using max:

[val,idx]=max(N);

Then simply use plot to plot the marker:

plot(idx,val,'r*') ;

This would give me the max of the histogram instead of the max of the normalization curve, no?

Try this:

dist = Histogram(2)
maxnorm = max(dist.YData);
line([min(dist.XData) max(dist.XData)], [maxnorm maxnorm], 'LineWidth', 2, 'Color', 'g');
