HODAR - Hour Of Day Average Range Bands - Indicators

This indicator is a further adaptation of my DOWAR – Day Of Week Average Range Bands indicator that can be found here:

https://www.prorealcode.com/prorealtime-indicators/dowar-day-of-week-average-range-bands/

This version calculates an all time average range for each hour of the day and then applies it to the chart as bands or a background candle or both. So for example on candles that open at 1000 and close at 1100 the bands (or background candle) will represent the all time average range for all recorded hours of 1000 to 1100 up to that date.

The bands/candles can be made wider or narrower by adjusting the ‘Multiple’ setting.

The centre of the bands/candles can be based on any custom close such as median price, close, typical price, total price etc.

By adjusting the offset you can decide which hours custom close the bands/candles will be centred on. Zero = this hour’s, 1 = the previous hour’s etc.

You can set the start date from when the indicator should start calculating the hourly averages. Set StartDate to zero if you want to use all available history.

Apply the indicator only to the hourly price chart.

I recommend that you download the itf file and import it to get full functionality rather than cut and pasting the code.
