CCI crossed above 100 7 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 40 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 26.8% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 58.5%, and below -100 for 14.6%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 26.8% | 33 | 7 | 40 min | 110 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 58.5% | 72 | 13 | 40 min | 130 min | |
| Below -100 | 14.6% | 18 | 6 | 25 min | 70 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 7 times, with a median stay of 40 minutes and a longest of 110. 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.
