Educational reference. Measured from 67 recorded 10m bars of MYM (Micro E-mini Dow) on Tuesday, September 22, 2026.
CCI crossed above 100 8 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 30 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 41.8% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 35.8%, and below -100 for 22.4%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 41.8% | 28 | 8 | 30 min | 80 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 35.8% | 24 | 10 | 20 min | 50 min | |
| Below -100 | 22.4% | 15 | 2 | 75 min | 80 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 8 times, with a median stay of 30 minutes and a longest of 80. 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.
