Tidal range is the distance between high and low water levels in a tide zone Which type of planetary alignment would you expect to show the HIGHEST tidal range?
Since tides are created by the gravity of large space objects, like the moon or other planets, I'd say the HIGHEST tide will occure if all the planets and the moon and probably all other planet moons allign. This will cause the water on earth to take the most elliptic shape rising the tidal range to its maximum.
