One model, two time views: what the market looks like right now, and where the larger trend is heading over time.
SRE (WhaleQuant Structural Regime Engine) SRE evaluates how price structure evolves across daily and weekly timeframes to define the prevailing market regime. Beyond identifying trends, consolidations, and exhaustion phases, it distinguishes between raw structural strength and deployable participation quality. The model dynamically adjusts for structural context and extension risk, assessing whether conditions are supportive, stretched, fragile, or structurally impaired. Its purpose is not to forecast precise price levels, but to determine whether risk deployment is aligned with underlying market structure.

The model sees a credible bullish edge, with 64.1% upside probability, strong signal alignment, and reward/risk that remains meaningfully favorable.
Up probability is 64.1%, with predictability at 52% and signal agreement at 93%. Reversal risk is 14%, while reward/risk stands at 0.30.
