**Elephant Bars Indicator**

This indicator identifies and highlights candlesticks that are significantly larger than the recent average candlestick size. It helps traders quickly spot strong price movements.

- **Percentage Threshold:** The candlestick must be this much larger than the average of the last 5 candles (default is 50%).
- **Body Percentage Threshold:** The candle body must be at least this percentage of the total candle size (default is 80%).
- **Border Color:** Sets the color of the highlighted candle's border.
- **Border Thickness:** Sets the thickness of the border around the highlighted candle.

**How It Works:**
1. The script calculates the size of the current candlestick and its body.
2. It computes the average size of the last 5 candlesticks.
3. The indicator highlights candles that are both significantly larger than the average size and have a body that is a substantial portion of the total candle size.

This indicator is particularly useful for identifying potential breakout or reversal points, as large candlesticks often signify strong market sentiment.
