Educational reference. Measured from 102 recorded 10m bars of MNG (Micro Natural Gas) on Friday, September 4, 2026.
CCI crossed above 100 9 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 10 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 19.6% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 66.7%, and below -100 for 13.7%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 19.6% | 20 | 9 | 10 min | 50 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 66.7% | 68 | 14 | 25 min | 160 min | |
| Below -100 | 13.7% | 14 | 5 | 30 min | 50 min |
CCI measures how far price sits from its own average, scaled by typical deviation, and it is unbounded — it can reach +300 as easily as +100. The ±100 lines are a convention, not a ceiling.
Here the reading entered above +100 9 times, with a median stay of 10 minutes and a longest of 50. Because CCI has no upper bound, the count of separate excursions matters more here than for a 0-100 oscillator: repeated short pushes past +100 and one sustained drive to +300 can produce a similar share of the session.
