Educational reference. Measured from 69 recorded 5m bars of ZN (10-Year T-Note) on Sunday, September 20, 2026.
CCI crossed above 100 6 separate times during the session, and the typical visit lasted 20 minutes. Across the whole session it sat above 100 for 34.8% of the time, between -100 and 100 for 59.4%, and below -100 for 5.8%.
| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 100 | 34.8% | 24 | 6 | 20 min | 30 min | |
| Between -100 and 100 | 59.4% | 41 | 9 | 5 min | 70 min | |
| Below -100 | 5.8% | 4 | 3 | 5 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 6 times, with a median stay of 20 minutes and a longest of 30. 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.
