Heatmap filter logic. Final currency score = Seasonals + COT + COT-Hedging + Term Structure + Interest-Rate Bias. Pair score = base currency score minus quote currency score, in fixed canonical FX notation.

Seasonals, COT, COT-Hedging: +1 bullish / −1 bearish · Term Structure: +1 premium / −1 discount · Interest Rates: +2 highest / −2 lowest, scaled across the FX basket. Pairs shown are the strongest divergences, ranked by score spread.
