Educational reference. Measured from 138 recorded 10m bars of ES (E-mini S&P 500) on Thursday, October 1, 2026.
Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 11 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 30 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 34.8% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 50.0%, and below 20 for 15.2%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 34.8% | 48 | 11 | 30 min | 140 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 50.0% | 69 | 18 | 35 min | 140 min | |
| Below 20 | 15.2% | 21 | 8 | 20 min | 80 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 11 times, with a median stay of 30 minutes and a longest of 140. 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.
