| Band | Share of session | Bars | Separate visits | Median visit | Longest visit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above 80 | 32.9% | 118 | 12 | 11 min | 22 min |
| Between 20 and 80 | 49.9% | 179 | 27 | 5 min | 28 min |

Why the visit count matters more than the percentage
A share of the session says how much time a reading spent in a band. It does not say whether that time came as one sustained stretch or as repeated brief excursions. Here the reading entered the zone above 80 12 times and left it 12 times, with a median stay of 11 minutes and a longest stay of 22 minutes beginning at 23:38 ET. Below 20 there were 15 visits, a median of 3 minutes and a longest of 10 minutes.

What this is and is not
This is a record of where one indicator sat during one completed session. It is not a forecast, and it makes no claim that any reading preceded a move. Whether crossing 80 tends to be followed by a larger move is a separate question, measured separately.
How this was measured
Every 1m bar recorded for ES on Sunday, August 16, 2026 — 359 bars from 18:01 to 23:59 ET — was classified by its Stochastic Oscillator reading. A visit is an unbroken run of consecutive bars in the same band. The session was complete before this page was built.
