### Key Components

**1. StreamingController**
```rust
struct StreamingController {
    bars: Vec<OHLCVBar>,                // Market data source
    current_index: AtomicUsize,         // Lock-free streaming position
    is_streaming: AtomicBool,           // Active flag
    dropped_bars: AtomicUsize,          // Data loss tracker
}
```

**2. RegimeDetectorState**
```rust
struct RegimeDetectorState {
    current_regime: RegimeType,         // Normal, Trending, Volatile, Crisis
    cusum_detector: CUSUMDetector,      // Structural break detection
    trending_classifier: TrendingClassifier,  // ADX-based trend detection
    volatile_classifier: VolatileClassifier,  // ATR-based volatility detection
    alerts: Vec<RegimeAlert>,           // Alert history
    price_history: VecDeque<f64>,       // Rolling window for CUSUM
}
```

**3. RegimeAlert**
```rust
struct RegimeAlert {
    from_regime: RegimeType,
    to_regime: RegimeType,
    bar_index: usize,
    timestamp: DateTime<Utc>,
    detection_latency_us: u64,          // Sub-millisecond tracking
    trigger: String,                     // "CUSUM", "ADX", "ATR", "NORMALIZATION"
}
```

### Regime Classification Logic

```rust
fn classify_regime(&self, cusum_break: bool, is_trending: bool, is_volatile: bool) -> RegimeType {
    if cusum_break && is_volatile {
        RegimeType::Crisis          // Structural break + high volatility
    } else if is_volatile {
        RegimeType::Volatile        // ATR > threshold (1.5σ)
    } else if is_trending {
        RegimeType::Trending        // ADX > 25.0
    } else {
        RegimeType::Normal          // Ranging/quiet market
    }
}
```

## Integration Points

### Wave C Feature Pipeline
- **Modules**: `ml/src/features/pipeline.rs`
- **Features**: 65+ (price, volume, time, technical, microstructure, statistical)
- **Performance**: <200μs per bar extraction

### Wave D Regime Detectors
- **CUSUM**: `ml/src/regime/cusum.rs` (structural break detection)
- **Trending**: `ml/src/regime/trending.rs` (ADX-based trend detection)
- **Volatile**: `ml/src/regime/volatile.rs` (ATR-based volatility detection)
- **Performance**: <10μs per bar classification

### DBN Data Loader
- **Module**: `ml/src/data_loaders/dbn_sequence_loader.rs`
- **Fallback**: Synthetic data generation (predefined regime zones)
- **Real Data**: ES.FUT, NQ.FUT, ZN.FUT, 6E.FUT

---

## Known Limitations

### 1. Artificial Throttling
- **Issue**: Test sleeps 1ms per bar to simulate real-time cadence
- **Impact**: Measured throughput (~485 bars/sec) caps at 50% of target
- **Resolution**: Remove `sleep()` for batch backtesting (achieves 4000+ bars/sec)

### 2. Synthetic Data Usage
- **Issue**: DBN tensor extraction not implemented in test
- **Impact**: Uses synthetic data with predefined regime zones
- **Resolution**: Implement tensor-to-OHLCVBar conversion or Parquet exports

### 3. Single-Threaded Execution
- **Issue**: All stages run on main thread (feature extraction, regime detection)
- **Impact**: Limits throughput to ~4000 bars/sec on single core
- **Resolution**: Pipeline stages across threads for 10,000+ bars/sec

---

## Next Steps

### Agent D29-D30: Trading Agent Integration
1. **Position Sizing**: Use regime alerts to modulate position size (1.5x trending, 0.5x volatile)
2. **Dynamic Stops**: Adjust stop-loss based on regime (2-4x ATR multipliers)
3. **Performance Attribution**: Track PnL by regime for strategy optimization

### Production Deployment
1. **DBN Integration**: Replace synthetic data with live Databento ES.FUT streams
2. **Multi-Symbol Support**: Extend controller to handle concurrent instruments
3. **Alert Persistence**: Store regime transitions in PostgreSQL for analysis

### Performance Optimization (Optional)
1. **SIMD Acceleration**: Vectorize feature extraction for further latency reduction
2. **Parallel Processing**: Pipeline stages across threads for 10,000+ bars/sec
3. **Memory Pooling**: Pre-allocate buffers to eliminate runtime allocations
