## What it does

This skill provides 38 trading patterns mapped to specific regimes, including Uniform Bearish, Uniform Bullish, and Mixed Mostly Bullish. The agent identifies the active regime using price movement and volatility, then selects an approach meeting a 60% confidence threshold.

Guidelines specify position sizing at 2% equity risk with a 2:1 reward ratio, target trade frequencies, and indicator interpretations. During steep downward regimes, an oversold RSI reading near 28 serves as confirmation for short entries rather than a reversal buy signal. During broad market rallies, rules point the agent toward passive long positions or very low trading volume.

Short-term bearish alignments on 15m, 1h, or 4h charts do not override higher-timeframe daily or weekly bullish trends.

## When to use it
- select trade frequency and bias based on market conditions
- filter out false oversold reversal signals during market drops
- apply a 2% equity risk limit with a 2:1 reward ratio
- target high-momentum crypto assets in broad bull markets

## Example prompts
- Evaluate the current market regime and look up strategy guidance in `market-regimes`.
- The market looks Uniform Bearish. What trade frequency does `market-regimes` recommend?
- Check `market-regimes` to see how an agent should handle an oversold RSI during a selloff.

## How to Use This Skill

1. Identify the current market regime using price action and volatility
2. Look up the recommended strategy for that regime below
3. Adjust your trading approach accordingly
4. Monitor for regime changes

## Regime Strategies

### Uniform Bearish

**Recommended approach** (95% confidence, seen 1x):
> HIGH-frequency SHORT-biased strategy (150-200 trades/24h) with multi-timeframe bearish confirmation. skill_aware_oss achieved +$2911.52 with 200 trades. Focus on highest-volatility losers: SOLUSDT (-11.31%), ETHUSDT (-9.62%).
- Total observations: 0
- First identified: 2026-02-01

### Uniform Bearish

**Recommended approach** (92% confidence, seen 1x):
> Avoid LONG positions entirely regardless of oversold signals. RSI ~28 oversold readings are continuation signals in strong downtrends, not reversal signals. skill_aware_oss correctly used oversold RSI as SHORT confirmation.
- Total observations: 0
- First identified: 2026-02-01

### Uniform Bullish

**Recommended approach** (92% confidence, seen 1x):
> ZERO trading or passive LONG-only allocation. When ALL assets gain (+1.33% to +3.82%), any SHORT-biased strategy loses. index_fund's $0 PnL beats all active agents. If must trade, use <20 trades/24h with LONG bias only.
- Total observations: 0
- First identified: 2026-02-02

### Uniform Bearish

**Recommended approach** (90% confidence, seen 1x):
> Trade frequency sweet spot is 149-200 trades/24h. Below 20 trades (ta_baseline: -$99, gpt_simple: -$163) fails to capture momentum. Zero trades (index_fund) misses directional opportunity entirely.
- Total observations: 0
- First identified: 2026-02-01

### Uniform Bullish

**Recommended approach** (90% confidence, seen 1x):
> CRITICAL: Multi-timeframe bearish alignment on lower timeframes (15m, 1h, 4h) does NOT override daily/weekly bullish regime. Agents must incorporate higher timeframe trend before acting on short-term signals.
- Total observations: 0
- First identified: 2026-02-02

### Uniform Bearish

**Recommended approach** (88% confidence, seen 1x):
> Position sizing at 2% equity risk with 2:1 reward ratio SUCCEEDS when combined with trend-aligned entries. skill_aware_oss consistently cited this framework in high-confidence decisions.
- Total observations: 0
- First identified: 2026-02-01

### Uniform Bullish

**Recommended approach** (88% confidence, seen 1x):
