What Does Fouda Score Mean?
The Fouda Score is based on a set of technical factors such as trend, momentum, volume, volatility, and relative strength, aiming to assess the quality of a stock's signal. That said, the score is not a guarantee of any specific future move; rather, it serves as a supporting indicator for comparing setups within the same session.
