Its called Antinodes
That point is called a 'node'. The point(s) of maximum amplitude, on the other hand, are called quite logically 'antinodes'. The wave is called a "standing" wave, not because it stands still; it does move vertically, but not horizontally. As a sidelight, a book from the golden age of science fiction (when such fiction was still related to science) by J.G. Ballard called Chronopolis postulated a space-time continuum structured as a standing wave surface, whereupon stable time is possible at the nodes.
Antinodes are the points of maximum amplitude on a standing wave.
.I believe it is anti-nodes
bla bla blah? Wht am I talking about? Oh yes, the answer Tide? XD
Vertical distance from a wave's highest point to it's lowest point is called the amplitude of a wave.
The highest point on a transverse wave is called a crest. Also, the lowest point is called a trough.
The highest point of a wave is called a crest and the lowest point is called a trough.

It is called the peak.
The "frequency curves" are called waves. The highest point of a wave is the crest.
