Your Dimensions, What is your fencing, how tall is your fence, is it shaded at all, what do you do in it?
Actually an outdoor arena can be shaded - there is something called trees that grow where I live, they actually offer something called shade.
Considering one side 150' will be parallel to a stone wall with large tall maple trees, I am going to have a pretty shaded half side of arena.
 
i ride mostly in a pasture that's about 3 or so acres big, i'm not sure of the dimensions of it though. it has a 4 ft fence made of welded fencing wire with wood posts and boards across the top and there's 3 or 4 big trees that shade some of the area. i school everything from dressage, to jumping, to barrels and poles in there. there's an arena about 200 x 120 that i also use sometimes, it's made with 4 ft pipe fencing, not shaded, and i school in there when i need to fine tune something or work on something new as it gives me a space to work in where my gelding won't get frustrated and not pay attention to boundaries.
 
Well, my barn kinda uses their outdoor as a supplement. It's not very big, and not shaded... Because that would make it indoor? For shows and whatnot its a warm up arena, and when its nice out we use it. Its probably.... 50 yds by 30 yds.
 
200ftx90ft(way too small). It's wood fencing that is about 3ft 6in tall. One side of the arena is shaded, but only at certain times of the day. It also has lights so that we can ride when it's dark. Jumping, dressage, mostly all of our training. We also have a 90x60 covered arena, but we only ride in there when the outdoor is frozen or really wet. It is mainly used for lunging.
