CCI crossed above 100 78 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 2 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 16.0% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 64.3%, and below -100 for 19.7%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 16.0% | 199 | 78 | 2 min | 11 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 64.3% | 802 | 160 | 4 min | 18 min | |
| Below -100 | 19.7% | 246 | 88 | 2 min | 15 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 78 times, with a median stay of 2 minutes and a longest of 11. 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.
