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 100 22 times and left it 22 times, with a median stay of 4 minutes and a longest stay of 16 minutes beginning at 20:54 ET. Below -100 there were 22 visits, a median of 2 minutes and a longest of 9 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 100 tends to be followed by a larger move is a separate question, measured separately.
How this was measured
Every 1m bar recorded for GC on Sunday, August 16, 2026 — 359 bars from 18:01 to 23:59 ET — was classified by its Commodity Channel Index reading. A visit is an unbroken run of consecutive bars in the same band. The session was complete before this page was built.
