Same reading, previous session: MES 1m ADX, September 16, 2026
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 1m bar recorded for MES on Thursday, September 17, 2026 — 1,380 bars from 00:00 to 23:59 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.
