- Parameterized by `period` (default 50), `lambda` (default 3.0).
- Output range: Varies (see docs).
- Requires `period` bars of warmup before first valid output (IsHot = true).
- Validated against TA-Lib, Skender, and Tulip reference implementations where available.
The Exponential Distribution CDF transforms a min-max normalized price into the cumulative distribution function of the exponential distribution, producing an output in $[0, 1]$. The exponential distribution models memoryless waiting times: the probability that a normalized value falls below a threshold depends only on the rate parameter $\lambda$, not on any history. Higher $\lambda$ values compress the CDF curve toward zero, making the indicator more sensitive to small normalized deviations. With $O(N)$ normalization and $O(1)$ CDF evaluation, EXPDIST provides a nonlinear percentile ranking that emphasizes the lower end of the price range while compressing the upper end.
