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 25 17 times and left it 17 times, with a median stay of 15 minutes and a longest stay of 20 minutes beginning at 01:40 ET. Below 20 there were 37 visits, a median of 5 minutes and a longest of 290 minutes.

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 25 tends to be followed by a larger move is a separate question, measured separately.
Every 5m bar recorded for MBT on Wednesday, August 5, 2026 — 287 bars from 00:00 to 23:55 ET — was classified by its ADX reading. A visit is an unbroken run of consecutive bars in the same band. The session was complete before this page was built.
