Default condtional format - hightlight max results

maybe...

equal to:
=max($l$4:$l$20)

or
formula is:
=L4=max($L$4:$L$20)
(with L4 the active cell)

Have 3 columns, L M N which display percentage results based on values
entered in other columns (cells in columns contain count formulas)
In these columns I want the max result to highlight in different color

I tried
cell value is - equal to - =max(L4:L20)
but does nothing

I tried
formula is =L4=max(L4:L20)
changes everything to red except for the lowest value
