Educational reference. Measured from 1380 recorded 1m bars of MES (Micro E-mini S&P 500) on Thursday, September 10, 2026.
Fast Stochastics %K crossed above 80 90 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 2 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 80 for 17.0% of the time, between 20 and 80 for 58.5%, and below 20 for 24.6%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 17.0% | 234 | 90 | 2 min | 9 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 58.5% | 807 | 192 | 3 min | 24 min | |
| Below 20 | 24.6% | 339 | 105 | 2 min | 16 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 90 times, with a median stay of 2 minutes and a longest of 9. 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.
