Educational reference. Measured from 138 recorded 10m bars of ES (E-mini S&P 500) on Wednesday, September 23, 2026.
Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 4 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 25 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 9.4% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 58.0%, and below 20 for 32.6%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 9.4% | 13 | 4 | 25 min | 70 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 58.0% | 80 | 20 | 30 min | 180 min | |
| Below 20 | 32.6% | 45 | 16 | 15 min | 110 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 4 times, with a median stay of 25 minutes and a longest of 70. 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.
