Adaptive Trend Regime

Adaptive Trend Regime
Adaptive Trend Regime is a market regime detection indicator designed to identify whether the market is trending bullish, trending bearish, or moving sideways.
The indicator combines EMA alignment, ADX trend strength, and EMA slope momentum to filter market noise and highlight only meaningful directional movement.
Instead of reacting to every price fluctuation, this tool focuses on detecting sustained market conditions.

How It Works
The background zone changes color depending on market regime:
🟢 Bullish Trend — Strong upward momentum
🔴 Bearish Trend — Strong downward momentum
🟡 Range — Low momentum or consolidation
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Parameters
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Best Usage
• Trend-following strategies
• Market regime filtering
• Trade confirmation
• Avoiding low-momentum environments
Works across all markets and timeframes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Notes
This indicator does not provide buy or sell signals.
It is intended to help traders understand market conditions and trade in alignment with prevailing momentum.
