| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 37.0% | 34 | 12 | 45 min | 105 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 58.7% | 54 | 16 | 37 min | 210 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 12 times, with a median stay of 45 minutes and a longest of 105. 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.
