Educational reference. Measured from 67 recorded 10m bars of MES (Micro E-mini S&P 500) on Tuesday, September 22, 2026.
Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 7 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 20 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 20.9% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 64.2%, and below 20 for 14.9%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 20.9% | 14 | 7 | 20 min | 30 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 64.2% | 43 | 11 | 20 min | 140 min | |
| Below 20 | 14.9% | 10 | 3 | 20 min | 60 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 7 times, with a median stay of 20 minutes and a longest of 30. 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.
