Educational reference. Measured from 138 recorded 10m bars of MYM (Micro E-mini Dow) on Thursday, September 10, 2026.
CCI crossed above 100 5 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 50 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 19.6% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 50.0%, and below -100 for 30.4%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 19.6% | 27 | 5 | 50 min | 100 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 50.0% | 69 | 13 | 40 min | 150 min | |
| Below -100 | 30.4% | 42 | 9 | 40 min | 130 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 5 times, with a median stay of 50 minutes and a longest of 100. 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.
