Stance (Higher, Lower, Level)
The stance is the direction the tradition reads for a period: clearly higher, higher, level, lower or clearly lower.
How it is built
The engine weighs natural benefics against natural malefics, using the scorer's own weights and whether each planet is working or afflicted. The result, a tilt, is placed into five bands calibrated separately for daily, weekly and monthly periods.
Level is a real outcome
When benefic and malefic weight cancel out almost exactly, the period is reported level and the text says so. Level is never given out as a quota; it only appears when the sky balances.
Honesty
The stance was chosen on classical grounds. When graded against real prices it lands close to a coin flip, and AstroFinex says so. It describes how the tradition reads a period; it does not promise an outcome.
