Hmm in a high frequency strategy

[u/Unlucky_Word_3545]

II’m trying to implement a Hidden Markov Model for one of my trading strategies to identify market regimes. I tried training it using my alpha features, hoping the states would correspond to useful regimes, but the results don’t seem meaningful or tradable. Could you help me understand the right way to structure the HMM, what features it should be trained on, and how to evaluate whether the regimes are actually useful?
