Updated Candle Statistics | by beidou_123
Script Description
Candle Statistics is a quantitative market analysis indicator that provides a structured statistical overview of recent price behavior using candlestick classification.
The script analyzes historical candles over four user-defined lookback periods and classifies each candle into one of three categories:
Key Features
Users can define four independent candle windows (e.g., 15, 60, 240, 480 bars).
A Doji is identified when the candle body is small relative to total price range, ensuring consistency across instruments and timeframes.
For each lookback period, the script computes the Bullish Percentage, defined as:
Bullish % = Bullish Candles ÷ (Bullish + Bearish Candles)
Doji candles are intentionally excluded from this calculation to avoid diluting directional bias.
If Bullish % > 50%, the value is displayed using a user-defined bullish dominance color
If Bullish % ≤ 50%, the value is displayed using a user-defined bearish dominance color
All results are presented in a compact, non-intrusive table displayed directly on the main chart.
Table position is fully configurable.
Intended Use
It is not a signal generator, but a statistical context tool that helps traders assess whether recent price action is dominated by bullish pressure, bearish pressure, or indecision.

This indicator is provided for educational and analytical purposes only and does not constitute financial or investment advice.
