Educational reference. Measured from 275 recorded 5m bars of SI (Silver) on Thursday, September 10, 2026.
CCI crossed above 100 8 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 12 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 9.1% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 57.1%, and below -100 for 33.8%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 9.1% | 25 | 8 | 12 min | 40 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 57.1% | 157 | 33 | 20 min | 75 min | |
| Below -100 | 33.8% | 93 | 25 | 10 min | 60 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 12 minutes and a longest of 40. 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.
