CCI measures how far price sits from its own average, scaled by typical deviation, and it is unbounded — it can reach +300 as easily as +100. The ±100 lines are a convention, not a ceiling.
Here the reading entered above +100 75 times, with a median stay of 3 minutes and a longest of 12. Because CCI has no upper bound, the count of separate excursions matters more here than for a 0-100 oscillator: repeated short pushes past +100 and one sustained drive to +300 can produce a similar share of the session.
