So I got the Squier and I'm having trouble with strumming or picking the strings up. Going down is detected pretty consistently, but strumming up, I have to pick MUCH harder for it to be detected. This is really making faster sequences awkward to play, and I would like to know if there is some way to correct this behaviour.

Well strum it normally before the song starts, then alternate strumming up and down and notice how it picks up the strings. You could be starting your upstrum on the B string (2nd to bottom string) or higher than what you intended, which for some chords, would not register since it would be wrong. Though if you believe you are strumming correctly, and the strings arent properly registering, then I would suggest using your warranty and getting a replacement.
EDIT: If you have an xbox live account, PM me with your xbox account and I'll add you and we could play some matches and I'll give you some tips.
Unfortunately got the guitar second-hand, albeit unopened in its box, so no warranty for Jakucha. Also, I play on the Wii, so no can do for Xbox accounts. Thanks for the offer, though.
there's a pot you can adjust. i have the same guitar & had the same problem, & foun this thread on one of the rock band forums. found the thread, lots of pages to go through and their forum engine stinks.
