In my charting approach, what I call 'historically normal level' refers to the 25th to 75th percentile range based on historical price action.

Why this matters? Because that middle band captures where the market spends about half its time. It's not some random range—it's where price naturally gravitates for roughly 50% of the period you're analyzing.

Think of it as the comfort zone for price action. When you're trading, knowing where this zone sits gives you perspective on whether current levels are stretched, compressed, or sitting right in that historically typical range.

The 25-75 percentile theory sounds good, but is it really that magical in practice?

This 25-75 percentile approach is quite good, but the key issue is—most people simply can't use this system effectively. Why? Because they haven't understood that the historical cycles themselves are changing.

This median range approach is quite good, but in practical use, it's easy to overestimate its stability. When the market suddenly erupts, it can still be broken through.
