xtickat = 0:60:length(YourData)-1;  %every hour from 00:00
set(gca, 'XTick', xtickat, 'XTickLabel', cellstr( num2str( mod(round(xtickat .' ./ 60),24) ) ) )
This will use hour 0, 1, 2, ... 23, 0, 1, 2, ... 23, and so on, with no indication of the day of the week (as the question asked for x axis to be in 24 hour, not for day and hour)
 
This will try to produce 168 ticks, which might perhaps be too much for your purposes. If so you can increase the 60 in xtickat to a more appropriate number such as 360 (6 hours).
