Educational reference. Measured from 138 recorded 10m bars of ES (E-mini S&P 500) on Tuesday, October 6, 2026.
Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 16 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 20 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 30.4% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 63.8%, and below 20 for 5.8%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 30.4% | 42 | 16 | 20 min | 70 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 63.8% | 88 | 20 | 35 min | 140 min | |
| Below 20 | 5.8% | 8 | 3 | 30 min | 30 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 16 times, with a median stay of 20 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.
