Educational reference. Measured from 225 recorded 1m bars of ZN (10-Year T-Note) on Sunday, September 6, 2026.
CCI crossed above 100 12 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 1 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 11.1% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 62.2%, and below -100 for 26.7%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 11.1% | 25 | 12 | 1 min | 7 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 62.2% | 140 | 29 | 4 min | 13 min | |
| Below -100 | 26.7% | 60 | 18 | 2 min | 10 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 12 times, with a median stay of 1 minutes and a longest of 7. 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.
