Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 5 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 75 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 47.8% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 48.9%, and below 20 for 3.3%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 47.8% | 44 | 5 | 75 min | 360 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 48.9% | 45 | 7 | 30 min | 420 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 5 times, with a median stay of 75 minutes and a longest of 360. 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.
