Edo Volatility Regime Engine doesn't just read volatility, it classifies the full regime the market is in.
How to read it
On top of the bands, the Stage tracker labels the phase of the volatility cycle—compression, expansion, normalization—and the multi-timeframe alignment tells you whether that phase is consistent across several scales. The triple sigma marks the statistical extremes.
How to use it in practice
It's the tool for trading regimes: you detect a compression confirmed across several timeframes and get ready for the expansion; you recognize a statistically extreme volatility and adjust risk. It turns volatility from a loose data point into a map of phases.
When not to rely on it alone
The volatility regime describes the environment, not the direction. An expansion can go either way; structure decides which.
