Educational reference. Measured from 44 recorded 5 minute sessions of CL (Crude Oil), September 3 to October 23, 2026. Updated as each new session is recorded.
In a typical session the 5 minute Stochastics %K on CL spends 20.9% of its time above 80, 59.7% between 20 and 80 and 19.4% below 20. It enters the upper zone about 10 separate times per session and the lower zone about 8.
The most time above 80 was on October 16, 2026 (36.8% of the session). The most time below 20 was on October 18, 2026 (49.3%).

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.
