Educational reference. Measured from 102 recorded 10m bars of ES (E mini S&P 500) on Friday, October 16, 2026.
Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 4 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 20 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 8.8% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 56.9%, and below 20 for 34.3%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 8.8% | 9 | 4 | 20 min | 40 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 56.9% | 58 | 10 | 55 min | 120 min | |
| Below 20 | 34.3% | 35 | 7 | 40 min | 140 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 20 minutes and a longest of 40. 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.
