| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 19.2% | 53 | 11 | 20 min | 70 min | |
| Between 20 and 80 | 72.1% | 199 | 19 | 35 min | 205 min | |

Stochastics places the close within the recent high low range, so 80 means the market is finishing near the top of where it has traded — a statement about position in the range, not about momentum.
Here the reading entered overbought territory 11 times, with a median stay of 20 minutes and a longest of 70. In a trending market the reading can pin near 100 for hours, so the longest single visit is the number that tells you whether this was a range day or a trend day.
