How to read the score
The 0–100 composite combines relative strength (30%), momentum (20%), volume (15%), ETF weight (15%), node correlation (5%), new inclusion (5%) and short-squeeze positioning (10%). It is not a return forecast or a pure relative-strength ranking. A dash means data is unavailable, not zero.
