Trading - Market Regime Detection
Methods for classifying the current market state into **discrete regimes** so your strategy can adapt. The bridge between "markets change" and "what do I do about it?" Regime detection answers the question every quant eventually asks: is this a trending market, a choppy market, or a crisis?

Why Detection Matters
A momentum strategy that crushes it in trending markets will bleed in choppy/mean-reverting markets. Without regime awareness, you're running the same playbook in every environment β the equivalent of wearing the same clothes in summer and winter. Knowing the regime tells you which strategy to run, how to size positions, or whether to sit out entirely.
