Market Regime

What it means

Market regime is the backdrop that determines which tools and expectations make sense right now.

What to watch

A setup that works in one regime can fail badly in another, so traders should avoid treating every session like the same market.

Where traders usually run into this

Market Regime is most useful once it is tied to a concrete page, chart decision, or workflow question.
