Same reading, previous session: MCL 5m Commodity Channel Index, October 28, 2026
This is a record of where one indicator sat during one completed session. It is not a prediction, 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.
Every 5m bar recorded for MCL on Thursday, October 29, 2026 — 266 bars from 00:00 to 23:55 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.
