Directional Score

What it measures

Direction only. Each timeframe contributes a weighted portion based on its Ichimoku trend state.

Why it matters

The directional score determines the Grey Rabbit Bias label (Strong Bullish through Strong Bearish). It is independent of alignment confidence.

How to interpret

Negative scores indicate bearish structure; positive scores indicate bullish structure. Magnitude reflects strength, not probability.
