Why You Should Understand Market Regimes

A market regime describes the broader environment in which price is moving.

Common regimes include:

- Trending markets.

- Range-bound markets.

- High-volatility markets.

- Low-volatility markets.

- Transitional markets.

Different strategies perform differently across these conditions.

For example, trend-following strategies may struggle during prolonged sideways movement.

Remember: Identify the market environment before choosing your trading approach.
