If I get it right, then you could simply write:
Mov(C,5,E)>Mov(C,30,E) AND
Cross(H,(ValueWhen(1, Fml("SwingHigh"),H)))
This way, you are in permission long mode since you have the
short-term moving average above the mid-term one.
The code that you wrote cannot check whether there has been a change
in the smas' level condition, thus leaving the possibility that there
has been a "trend" change before your swing-high formula got into action.
