CCI crossed above 100 79 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 2 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 15.6% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 61.6%, and below -100 for 22.7%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 15.6% | 201 | 79 | 2 min | 9 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 61.6% | 792 | 180 | 4 min | 17 min | |
| Below -100 | 22.7% | 292 | 105 | 2 min | 12 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 79 times, with a median stay of 2 minutes and a longest of 9. 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.
