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.

View forecast history
This reading is based on the last 20 trading days of 15-minute price, volume, and VWAP data. Price is only slightly below the recent estimated cost basis of 15.63. Price is in the upper half of the main cost band (15.40 to 15.56), which is usually a healthier short-term location because price is holding the stronger side of recent trading activity. The lower down support area sits around 15.14 to 15.17. It looks more like a first buffer than a major floor. The higher up selling area sits around 15.63 to 15.67, so rebounds may begin to slow as price pushes into that zone. Recent positioning looks fairly balanced, with 62% in profit and 38% under water. Recent trading is fairly concentrated, so the nearby heavy zones may matter more than usual. From a trading point of view, the structure is still best read by comparing price with the main cost band first, then watching whether the lower support zone or higher supply zone becomes the next directional checkpoint.
