Bias is our best read of which direction the flow leans — bullish, bearish, or neutral — based on the call/put mix and where the size is landing. It's the directional companion to the (direction-free) confidence score.
Bias is context, not a promise. It's most useful paired with a catalyst: a bullish lean with a real news reason behind it is far more meaningful than a lean with nothing driving it.
