Educational reference. Measured from 102 recorded 10m bars of MES (Micro E mini S&P 500) on Friday, October 9, 2026.
Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 14 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 20 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 35.3% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 57.8%, and below 20 for 6.9%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 35.3% | 36 | 14 | 20 min | 70 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 57.8% | 59 | 17 | 20 min | 120 min | |
| Below 20 | 6.9% | 7 | 3 | 20 min | 40 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 14 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.
