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 4 times and left it 4 times, with a median stay of 65 minutes and a longest stay of 130 minutes beginning at 03:25 ET. Below 20 there were 5 visits, a median of 115 minutes and a longest of 240 minutes.

Same reading, previous session: MET 5m ADX, August 20, 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 5m bar recorded for MET on Friday, August 21, 2026 — 211 bars from 00:00 to 23:30 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.
