AI Crypto Market-Regime Research: A Prompt That Requests Evidence and Invalidation

Regime labels — trending, ranging, volatile — are only useful if they are defined. A prompt can make the AI apply a definition rather than invent one.

Short answer

An AI market-regime prompt should give a regime definition (e.g. trend = ADX above 25 and price beyond the 50-EMA; high volatility = ATR percentile above 80) and ask the AI to classify a named market and window using closed-bar values. It should ask how long the current regime has lasted, what the last change looked like, and what readings would signal a change. Reject answers that assign a regime without values or switch definitions mid-answer.
