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 16 times and left it 16 times, with a median stay of 15 minutes and a longest stay of 45 minutes beginning at 23:15 ET. Below -100 there were 16 visits, a median of 10 minutes and a longest of 65 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 5m bar recorded for MES on Tuesday, September 22, 2026 — 276 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.
