Market Regime Detection Using ML: Dynamic Capital Allocation Strategy Explained

In this video, Aparna Singhal explains how she built a machine-learning-based market regime detection strategy using market breadth and Python. This video features an in-depth conversation between Aparna Singhal, an independent trader, and Mohak Pachisia, discussing her EPAT final project focused on regime classification, capital allocation, and drawdown control. Aparna walks through her journey from discretionary trading to systematic thinking, where she observed that markets move through distinct regimes rather than in a single direction. To address this, she designed a long-only strategy on the Nifty 500 using market breadth indicators and multiple machine learning classifiers. Key topics covered: Market regime detection with ML Feature engineering using market breadth Random Forest classification Regime-based position sizing Backtesting vs buy-and-hold This is a technical, educational walkthrough, not a performance pitch. The focus is on process, modeling decisions, and risk management, making it relevant for traders, quants, and professionals exploring systematic trading. ➡️ Download the codes from the link below: https://bit.ly/4kkKYm4 Join EPAT - Executive Programme in Algorithmic Trading: https://bit.ly/3ZOQPXr Learn to apply AI and ML in trading in a practical hands-on manner EPAT syllabus on Machine learning & AI: https://bit.ly/45NlzM9 Free self-paced course for beginners: https://bit.ly/4c7i0UK Apply AI in trading strategies: https://bit.ly/3Zd898r AI in portfolio management: https://bit.ly/4buDVoK 🎯 What You’ll Learn: -The framework for building a Machine Learning model to detect four distinct market regimes: Bull, Bear, High Volatility, and Low Volatility. -How to utilize Market Breadth indicators—such as participation rates and stocks above moving averages—to find a trading edge. -Technical methods to eliminate look-ahead bias and manage transaction costs using signal smoothing and persistence filters. -A comparison between Active (4-way) and Passive (2-regime) strategies to mitigate drawdowns and outperform a buy-and-hold benchmark.

She also has a strong foundation in credit analysis from her previous role in Wholesale Banking at IDFC FIRST Bank. 🎓 About the Speaker: Mohak Pachisia Mohak Pachisia is a Senior Quantitative Researcher at QuantInsti, specializing in trading strategy development, financial modeling, and quantitative research. Before joining QuantInsti, he worked in the Risk and Quant Solutions division at Evalueserve, where he also led the learning and development function for the Quant team. About EPAT The EPAT program by QuantInsti is a structured learning track focused on algorithmic and quantitative trading. It emphasizes Python-based strategy development, backtesting, risk management, and applied projects guided by mentors. 💡 Key Takeaways: -Market Breadth vs. Index Price: The Nifty 500 is used because it captures the market essence across small, mid, and large-cap stocks more effectively than index price alone. -The Smoothing Effect: Implementing a persistence filter (requiring a signal for 4 out of 5 days) reduces "spikes" and lowers unnecessary transaction costs. -Volatility Sensitivity: High volatility regimes are intentionally not smoothed because they require "instant protection" to save capital from rapid falls. -Risk-Adjusted Performance: The primary contribution of this ML model is lowering the downside and mitigating drawdowns rather than just increasing upside.
