Educational reference. Measured from 52 recorded 1 minute sessions of BTCUSD (Bitcoin), September 3 to October 24, 2026. Updated as each new session is recorded.
In a typical session the 1 minute ADX on BTCUSD spends 40.3% of its time above 25, 21.1% between 20 and 25 and 38.7% below 20. It enters the upper zone about 25 separate times per session and the lower zone about 29.
The most time above 25 was on September 13, 2026 (66.3% of the session). The most time below 20 was on October 23, 2026 (51.2%).
Over the last 5 sessions the ADX spent 32.6% of its time above 25 and 45.1% below 20 — less time in the upper zone than its 52 session average of 40.3%.
ADX measures trend STRENGTH and says nothing about direction — 30 is a strong move that may be up or down. Below 20 the market is ranging, and trend following rules tend to be chopped up there.
ADX is the filter most strategies gate on, so how long it actually held above the threshold decides how many of a day's signals would have been allowed through at all.
