CCI crossed above 100 9 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 50 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 37.4% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 46.8%, and below -100 for 15.8%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 37.4% | 52 | 9 | 50 min | 180 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 46.8% | 65 | 14 | 35 min | 130 min | |
| Below -100 | 15.8% | 22 | 5 | 20 min | 90 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 50 minutes and a longest of 180. 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.
