| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 17.5% | 225 | 81 | 2 min | 16 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 62.0% | 799 | 177 | 4 min | 21 min | |
| Below -100 | 20.6% | 265 | 99 | 2 min | 11 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 81 times, with a median stay of 2 minutes and a longest of 16. 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.
