Relative Strength Index measures where price sits within its own recent gains and losses, on a 0–100 scale. This page reports what it actually read on E-mini Nasdaq-100 10-minute charts — not what it is supposed to do, but the distribution of 6,149 recorded values over the last 90 days.
| Series | Median | Middle half | 5th / 95th | Full range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Relative Strength Index | 51.62 | 43.39 – 59.78 | 31.07 / 71.97 | 7.83 – 92.76 |
| Avg | 51.29 | 43.69 – 59.34 | 30.71 / 67.20 | 21.74 – 73.56 |
The median is the middle reading, so a single unusual session cannot drag it. The middle half is where Relative Strength Index sat on half of all bars — the range you should expect to see most of the time on this chart.
How often it reaches the levels people watch
| Reading | Bars | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Above 70 | 403 | 6.6% |
| Between 30 and 70 | 5,504 | 89.5% |

Relative Strength Index spent 90% of its time between 30 and 70 on this chart. A reading beyond 70 appeared about once every 15 bars, and below 30 about once every 25. How rare a signal is matters as much as what it says.
