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 9 times and left it 9 times, with a median stay of 10 minutes and a longest stay of 20 minutes beginning at 04:10 ET. Below -100 there were 25 visits, a median of 20 minutes and a longest of 50 minutes.

Same reading, previous session: NQ 5m Commodity Channel Index, October 13, 2026
What this is and is not
This is a record of where one indicator sat during one completed session. It is not a prediction, 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 NQ on Wednesday, October 14, 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.
