Educational reference. Measured from 138 recorded 10m bars of ES (E-mini S&P 500) on Tuesday, September 8, 2026.
Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 5 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 50 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 20.3% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 62.3%, and below 20 for 17.4%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 20.3% | 28 | 5 | 50 min | 80 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 62.3% | 86 | 15 | 40 min | 330 min | |
| Below 20 | 17.4% | 24 | 10 | 25 min | 50 min |
The fast line is the unsmoothed version of the same range calculation, so it reaches the extremes far more often than the smoothed %K and leaves them sooner.
Here the reading entered overbought territory 5 times, with a median stay of 50 minutes and a longest of 80. The gap between this page's visit count and the smoothed Stochastics page for the same session is a direct measure of how much the smoothing removes.
