Outside Bar Percentage by Hour Indicator
Description:
The "Outside Bar Percentage by Hour" indicator is a powerful tool designed to analyze the occurrence of outside bars within each hour of the trading day. This indicator not only tracks the frequency of these key market events but also provides a detailed breakdown of their distribution, allowing traders to identify potential patterns and key trading hours.

What It Does:
Outside Bar Detection: The indicator identifies "outside bars," which occur when the high of a bar is higher than the previous bar's high, and the low is lower than the previous bar's low. These bars often signal significant market moves and potential reversals.

Hourly Analysis: The script tracks the total number of bars and outside bars for each hour (0 to 23) of the trading day. This granular analysis helps traders pinpoint specific hours when outside bars are more likely to occur.

Percentage Calculation: It calculates the percentage chance of an outside bar occurring for each hour, based on the total bars observed. This percentage provides a clear view of the likelihood of encountering an outside bar within a given hour, which can be critical for timing entries and exits.

Visual Representation: The data is displayed in a table format directly on the chart, showing:

Hour: The specific hour of the day.
Total Bars: The total number of bars observed during each hour.
Outside Bar Count: The number of outside bars detected in that hour.
Percentage: The calculated percentage chance of an outside bar occurring in each hour.
How It Works:
The indicator uses a loop to analyze each bar in real-time, checking if it qualifies as an outside bar. It then records the occurrence in arrays that track data for each hour.
At the start of each new day, the counts are reset to ensure the data remains relevant and accurate.
The percentage chance of an outside bar occurring is computed using the formula: (Outside Bar Count / Total Bar Count) * 100.
The results are neatly organized in a table that updates dynamically, providing traders with real-time insights.
How to Use It:
Identify Key Trading Hours: Use the table to observe the distribution of outside bars across different hours. This can help you identify when significant market moves are more likely to occur.

Time Your Entries and Exits: Understanding the likelihood of outside bars can assist in timing your trades, particularly if you use strategies that rely on volatility or market reversals.

Market Analysis: The percentage data can provide insights into the market's behavior during specific times, helping you refine your trading strategy based on historical patterns.

Concepts Underlying the Calculations:
The script leverages the concept of "outside bars," which are often considered indicators of potential reversals or significant market movements. By analyzing these bars across different hours, the indicator provides a temporal dimension to market analysis, helping traders understand when these pivotal events are most likely to occur.

The detailed hourly breakdown and percentage calculations offer a nuanced view of market activity, making it a valuable tool for traders looking to enhance their timing and strategic decision-making.

This indicator is suitable for all types of traders, including those focused on day trading, swing trading, or even longer-term analysis. It provides a unique perspective on market activity that can complement other technical indicators and analyses.
