Educational reference. Measured from 138 recorded 10m bars of SIL (Micro Silver) on Thursday, September 24, 2026.
CCI crossed above 100 7 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 10 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 10.9% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 69.6%, and below -100 for 19.6%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 10.9% | 15 | 7 | 10 min | 40 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 69.6% | 96 | 17 | 40 min | 170 min | |
| Below -100 | 19.6% | 27 | 10 | 20 min | 50 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 10 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.
