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 20 times and left it 20 times, with a median stay of 5 minutes and a longest stay of 35 minutes beginning at 13:40 ET. Below -100 there were 13 visits, a median of 10 minutes and a longest of 25 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 100 tends to be followed by a larger move is a separate question, measured separately.
Every 5m bar recorded for MET on Wednesday, August 5, 2026 — 227 bars from 00:10 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.
