Educational reference. Measured from 52 recorded 15 minute sessions of BTCUSD (Bitcoin), September 3 to October 24, 2026. Updated as each new session is recorded.
In a typical session the 15 minute Stochastics %K on BTCUSD spends 17.5% of its time above 80, 68.5% between 20 and 80 and 14.0% below 20. It enters the upper zone about 4 separate times per session and the lower zone about 3.
The most time above 80 was on September 3, 2026 (36.5% of the session). The most time below 20 was on October 12, 2026 (32.3%).
Over the last 5 sessions the Stochastics %K spent 15.0% of its time above 80 and 15.8% below 20 — less time in the upper zone than its 52 session average of 17.5%.
Stochastics places the close within the recent high low range, so 80 means the market is finishing near the top of where it has traded — a statement about position in the range, not about momentum.
In a trending market the reading can pin near 100 for hours, so the longest single visit is the number that tells you whether this was a range day or a trend day.
