Educational reference. Measured from 37 recorded 15 minute sessions of ES (E mini S&P 500), September 3 to October 23, 2026. Updated as each new session is recorded.
In a typical session the 15 minute CCI on ES spends 21.5% of its time above 100, 57.4% between -100 and 100 and 21.1% below -100. It enters the upper zone about 6 separate times per session and the lower zone about 5.
The most time above 100 was on September 21, 2026 (44.6% of the session). The most time below -100 was on October 14, 2026 (38.0%).
Over the last 5 sessions the CCI spent 13.2% of its time above 100 and 28.1% below -100 — less time in the upper zone than its 37 session average of 21.5%.
CCI measures how far price sits from its own average, scaled by typical deviation, and it is unbounded — it can reach +300 as easily as +100. The ±100 lines are a convention, not a ceiling.
Because CCI has no upper bound, the count of separate excursions matters more here than for a 0-100 oscillator: repeated short pushes past +100 and one sustained drive to +300 can produce a similar share of the session.
