 In words, the first time $C_n $ flags $1$ is when $X_{n-1}<​a$. Then it flags $1$ until $X_{n-1}$ goes above $b$. Then it flags $0$ until $X_n$ goes below $a$. So consecutive sequences of $C_n=1$ are linked with upcrossings of $[a,b] $ for $(X_n) $. Now, define ​ In words, the first time $C_n $ flags $1$ is when $X_{n-1}<​a$.
