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.

This reading is based on the last 20 trading days of 15-minute price, volume, and VWAP data. Price is trading 7.7% below the recent estimated cost basis of 112.56, so the recent structure is still leaning under pressure. Price is in the lower half of the main cost band (100.17 to 109.36), so price support and pullback behavior matter more than immediate upside follow-through. The higher up selling area sits around 107.52 to 108.44, so rebounds may begin to slow as price pushes into that zone. Roughly 71% of recent positioning remains under water, so rebound attempts can still run into supply from trapped holders. From a trading point of view, the main question is whether rebounds remain healthy enough to reach and absorb the higher overhead supply zone.
