🧭 Regime: Range

Volatility Contraction — Bollinger width is in the 7th percentile of the last six months.

Suits: Mean reversion / range trading. No directional edge: buy near range support, sell near resistance, and treat breakouts with suspicion until volume confirms them.

Classified from ADX, the 20/50-day EMA stack and price's distance from the 50-day average; volatility from band-width and ATR expansion.
