Higher Highs and Lower Lows Condition:

The condition that is evaluated is whether the current candle's high is higher than the previous candle's high and the current candle's low is lower than the previous candle's low. This is defined in the variable higher_highs_lows.
If both conditions are true (higher high and lower low), the script proceeds to calculate the percentage and display it.
Percentage Change Calculation:

The difference between the current candle's range and the previous candle's range is calculated:
range_current: The range of the current candle (the difference between the high and low of the candle).
range_previous: The range of the previous candle (the difference between the high and low of the previous candle).
The percentage change between these two ranges is calculated using the formula:
percentage_change = (range_current / range_previous - 1) * 100.
This value is what will be displayed on the chart.
Bar Color Change:

If the higher_highs_lows condition is true, the bar color is changed to blue using barcolor(color.blue). If the condition is not met, no specific color is applied.
Displaying the Percentage:

If the condition is true and the show_percentage option is enabled, the percentage is displayed on the chart:
y_position: Defines the vertical position of the percentage label based on the user selection ("Above", "Middle", or "Below").
label.new: Creates a new label with the percentage text, using the custom settings for font size, color, and text alignment.
x=bar_index: The horizontal position of the label, corresponding to the index of the current bar on the chart.
y=y_position: The vertical position of the label, determined by the chosen position (above, middle, or below the candle).
text: The text to display, which is the percentage calculated with two decimal points.
textcolor: The color of the text, as defined by the user.
size: The font size, which can be small, normal, or large depending on the configuration.
textalign: Text alignment (centered).
Summary of Options:
Show or hide the percentage: The user can choose whether or not to see the percentage change between the current candle's range and the previous candle's range.
Position of the percentage: The percentage can be displayed above, in the middle, or below the candle.
Customization of color and size: The user can adjust the color and size of the percentage text.
This indicator is useful for quickly visualizing how the range of a candle changes compared to the previous one, helping to identify significant market moves.
