Educational reference. Measured from 92 recorded 15m bars of MYM (Micro E-mini Dow) on Thursday, September 10, 2026.
CCI crossed above 100 3 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 90 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 18.5% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 54.3%, and below -100 for 27.2%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 18.5% | 17 | 3 | 90 min | 135 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 54.3% | 50 | 8 | 90 min | 225 min | |
| Below -100 | 27.2% | 25 | 6 | 52 min | 150 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 3 times, with a median stay of 90 minutes and a longest of 135. 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.
