Four regimes. One signal.

Every tick is classified into one of four micro-structure regimes using a hybrid online K-means + HMM pipeline. No lagging indicators. No guesswork.

🟢
Bullish

Accumulation

Institutional buying with large lot sizes, tight spreads, and suppressed volatility. Smart money is building positions.

Detection Signal
High OFI + Low Vol + Large Lots
🔵
Neutral

Absorption

Large sell pressure absorbed by buyers with minimal price movement. Market makers are taking the other side.

Detection Signal
High Kyle's λ + Stable Price + Volume
🔴
Reversal

Momentum Exhaustion

High trade rate with declining size and burst activity fading. The move is running out of fuel.

Detection Signal
High Trade Rate + Small Size + Bursts
🟡
Risk

Low Liquidity

Wide spreads, erratic prices, and low trade rate. Elevated slippage risk — proceed with caution.

Detection Signal
High Amihud + Wide Spread + Low Rate
