Regime Cartographer

Market environment fit

The same setup can win in trend and bleed in chop. The Regime Cartographer maps which market environments carry your edge — and which ones are costing you money.

Reads pre-computed regime metrics: volatility distribution and performance_by_regime (high/normal/low vol), quant_regime_performance from Quant Lab, session and day-of-week splits, directional alignment (long vs short by vol), per-setup volatility sensitivity, ATR percentiles, and pre-built opportunity/danger lists — then coaches regime-aware trade selection.

What the Regime Cartographer actually outputs

Not a chat summary — a structured forensic report from your canonical trade tape, with grades, benchmarks, and prioritized recommendations.

Regime Cartographer's Assessment

Edge is regime-dependent: normal volatility carries 2.35 PF and +$4,250 P&L, while high vol bleeds −$320. New York session shows size drift — 62% win rate but −0.1R expectancy. Long-biased with chop-regime underperformance.

What you're doing well

50 trades, 62% win rate, +$4,250 — your primary edge environment.

London session shows positive avg R across 28 trades.

Areas needing attention

high volPF 1.15high

23 trades in high volatility with negative total P&L — reduce size or sit out.

ny session−0.1Rhigh

62% win rate masks negative expectancy — classic size-drift pattern in US hours.

Recommended actions

Priority 1

Cut high-vol exposure by 50% or require A+ setup only when volatility_regime = high.

Expected impact: Avoids ~$320/mo in high-vol losses per pre-computed danger block.

Priority 2

Audit New York session sizing — win rate is fine but avg R is negative.

Expected impact: Fixes size drift without abandoning the session entirely.

What it reads from your tape

The Regime Cartographer receives pre-aggregated metrics from your completed trades — not a generic chat summary. Every input comes from your canonical trade tape.

  • Volatility regime distribution and performance (high / normal / low vol)
  • Quant Lab GMM regime performance (trend, chop, etc.) when quant_regime is stamped
  • Session-level win rate, expectancy, and avg R (Asia, London, New York)
  • Day-of-week performance and directional long/short alignment by regime
  • Per-setup volatility sensitivity — setups that only work in specific vol conditions

What it detects

  • Negative expectancy in specific volatility or quant regimes
  • Session-level bleed — high win rate but negative R (size drift pattern)
  • Directional misalignment — long-biased edge in bear vol or vice versa
  • Regime-sensitive setups with large expectancy spread across vol buckets
  • Over-concentration in a single volatility regime (>70% of trades)

What it delivers

  • Regime assessment with awareness grade and best/worst regime labels
  • Volatility regime performance table and session performance table
  • Pre-computed regime opportunities and dangers with monthly savings
  • Regime rules, directional bias, and prioritized regime_recommendations

How it fits the Council

The Regime Cartographer runs in parallel with six other specialists on the same audit period. Each agent sees metrics tuned to its domain. When specialists disagree, they debate transparently in The Situation Room before the Chief Coaching Officer synthesizes everything into a dollar-ranked Kill List.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

How does it determine market regime?

Volatility regime uses ATR-based high/normal/low classification stamped on each trade. Quant regime uses Quant Lab GMM tags (quant_regime, quant_regime_label) when the pipeline has run. Legacy bull/bear/sideways uses market_regime when populated. The agent cites data_coverage to show how much of your tape is classified.

Can it tell me when NOT to trade a setup?

Yes. per_setup_volatility_sensitivity flags setups where expectancy diverges across vol buckets. Combined with quant_regime_performance and session_performance, the agent quantifies dollar cost of trading outside your edge environment and surfaces kill-list candidates in regime_dangers.

How is this different from the Setup Surgeon?

The Setup Surgeon ranks and kills setups — drift, compliance, and per-setup quant_regime_dependency. The Regime Cartographer maps portfolio-level environment fit: vol distribution, session/day splits, directional alignment, and cross-setup regime opportunities/dangers. They complement each other; the CCO synthesizes both.

What if quant_regime is not on my trades?

The agent still analyzes volatility_regime, session_performance, day_of_week_performance, and directional_alignment. data_coverage.quant_regime_coverage_pct tells you how much of the tape lacks Quant Lab tags — conclusions are weighted accordingly.

How many trades do I need per regime bucket?

Volatility splits appear from the first classified trade. Pre-computed opportunities and dangers require 5+ trades per regime bucket. Per-setup volatility sensitivity needs 5+ trades per setup and 3+ per vol sub-bucket. Session analysis needs entry timestamps.
