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 95 minutes and a longest stay of 130 minutes beginning at 11:25 ET. Below 20 there were 4 visits, a median of 175 minutes and a longest of 365 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 MET on Monday, August 31, 2026 — 256 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.
