 # HLV: High-Low Volatility (Parkinson)
 
+*Also known as: PV (Parkinson Volatility)*
+
 > "The simplest solution is often the most elegant. When you only need the peaks and valleys, why ask for the whole journey?"
 
 High-Low Volatility (HLV), also known as the Parkinson estimator, is a range-based volatility measure that uses only the high and low prices of each period. Developed by Michael Parkinson in 1980, this estimator achieves approximately 5x better efficiency than close-to-close methods by exploiting the information content in the trading range. The implementation includes RMA (Wilder's) smoothing with bias correction and optional annualization.

+# JVOLTY: Jurik Volatility
+
+> "The volatility measure that ignores the noise—because sometimes, the best signal comes from knowing what to throw away."
+
+Jurik Volatility (JVOLTY) is the adaptive volatility component extracted from Mark Jurik's JMA algorithm. Unlike traditional volatility measures that treat all price movements equally, JVOLTY uses a 128-bar trimmed mean distribution to compute a robust volatility reference that rejects outliers by design. The result: a volatility measure that remains stable during flash crashes, earnings surprises, and 5-sigma events while still tracking genuine regime changes.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+When Mark Jurik developed JMA in the 1990s, he embedded a sophisticated volatility measurement system within it. This wasn't documented. It wasn't marketed separately. It was just part of the compiled DLL that powered the adaptive smoothing.
+
+The reverse-engineering efforts that revealed JMA's true algorithm also exposed this volatility component. While the forum approximations used simple exponential smoothing for volatility (easy to implement, reasonable results), Jurik's actual approach was radically different: maintain a 128-sample distribution of recent volatility readings and compute a trimmed mean that discards the tails.
+
+JVOLTY extracts this volatility measurement system as a standalone indicator. The same percentile trimming that makes JMA stable during market dislocations now provides a standalone volatility metric. For traders who need JMA's volatility reference without the smoothed price output, JVOLTY delivers exactly that.
+
+The implementation matches the decompiled reference within floating-point tolerance.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+JVOLTY computes volatility through a four-stage pipeline: adaptive band tracking, local deviation measurement, short-term smoothing, and distribution-based trimmed mean calculation.
+
+### 1. Adaptive Envelope (UpperBand / LowerBand)
+
+Two asymmetric bands track price extremes:
+
+$$
+U_t = \begin{cases}
+P_t & \text{if } P_t > U_{t-1} \\
+U_{t-1} + \beta_t (P_t - U_{t-1}) & \text{otherwise}
+\end{cases}
+$$
+
+$$
+L_t = \begin{cases}
+P_t & \text{if } P_t < L_{t-1} \\
+L_{t-1} + \beta_t (P_t - L_{t-1}) & \text{otherwise}
+\end{cases}
+$$
+
+where $\beta_t$ is the adaptive decay rate derived from the volatility-adjusted exponent.
+
+When price breaks a band, it snaps immediately. Otherwise, the band decays toward price at rate $\beta$. This creates an envelope that expands quickly during breakouts and contracts slowly during consolidation.
+
+### 2. Local Deviation
+
+The instantaneous deviation measures distance from the adaptive bands:
+
+$$
+\Delta_t = \max(|P_t - U_{t-1}|, |P_t - L_{t-1}|) + 10^{-10}
+$$
+
+The epsilon prevents division by zero in downstream calculations. This deviation captures how far price has moved relative to the recent range established by the bands.
+
+### 3. Short Volatility (10-bar SMA)
+
+The local deviation is smoothed with a 10-bar simple moving average:
+
+$$
+V_t = \frac{1}{10} \sum_{i=0}^{9} \Delta_{t-i}
+$$
+
+This smoothed deviation represents the "raw" volatility reading that feeds into the distribution buffer. The 10-bar window provides enough smoothing to avoid tick-level noise while remaining responsive to genuine volatility changes.
+
+### 4. Volatility Distribution (128-sample trimmed mean)
+
+The core innovation: instead of exponential smoothing, JVOLTY maintains a 128-sample circular buffer of raw volatility readings. On each bar, the buffer is sorted and a trimmed mean is computed:
+
+**Full buffer (128 samples):**
+$$
+\hat{V}_t = \frac{1}{65} \sum_{i=32}^{96} \text{sorted}[i]
+$$
+
+The middle 65 values (indices 32-96) represent approximately the 25th-75th percentile. Extreme values on both tails are discarded.
+
+**Partial buffer (16-127 samples):**
+$$
+s = \max(5, \text{round}(0.5 \times \text{count}))
+$$
+$$
+k = \lfloor(\text{count} - s) / 2\rfloor
+$$
+$$
+\hat{V}_t = \frac{1}{s} \sum_{i=k}^{k+s-1} \text{sorted}[i]
+$$
+
+During warmup, the trim ratio adapts dynamically based on available samples.
+
+**Why trimmed mean?** A 5% gap-up creates a massive spike in traditional volatility measures. With exponential smoothing, this spike persists—half its effect remains after the EMA period, a quarter after two periods. With trimmed mean, a single spike falls outside the 25th-75th percentile and gets discarded entirely. JVOLTY asks: "Is this volatility reading unusual relative to recent history?" If yes, ignore it.
+
+### 5. Dynamic Exponent (Output)
+
+JVOLTY outputs the ratio of current volatility to reference volatility, raised to an adaptive power and clamped:
+
+$$
+r_t = \frac{|V_t|}{\hat{V}_t}
+$$
+
+$$
+d_t = \text{clamp}(r_t^{P_{exp}}, 1, \text{logParam})
+$$
+
+where:
+- $P_{exp} = \max(\text{logParam} - 2, 0.5)$
+- $\text{logParam} = \max(\log_2(\sqrt{L}) + 2, 0)$
+- $L = (N - 1) / 2$, and $N$ is the period
+
+This dynamic exponent:
+- Returns 1.0 during normal volatility (no adaptation needed)
+- Increases toward `logParam` during high volatility (faster response)
+- Never drops below 1.0 (bounded minimum smoothing)
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Adaptive Decay Rate
+
+The bands decay toward price at a volatility-adjusted rate:
+
+$$
+\text{adapt} = \text{sqrtDivider}^{\sqrt{d}}
+$$
+
+where:
+$$
+\text{sqrtDivider} = \frac{\sqrt{L} \times \text{logParam}}{\sqrt{L} \times \text{logParam} + 1}
+$$
+
+Higher volatility (higher $d$) produces faster band decay (more responsive envelope).
+
+### Warmup Period
+
+JVOLTY requires substantial warmup to fill the distribution buffer:
+
+$$
+W = \lceil 20 + 80 \times N^{0.36} \rceil
+$$
+
+For JVOLTY(14): $W = \lceil 20 + 80 \times 14^{0.36} \rceil = \lceil 20 + 80 \times 2.49 \rceil = 220$ bars.
+
+Additionally, the 128-bar distribution buffer needs to fill before trimmed mean calculations are fully robust. Allow 220 + 128 = 348 bars for maximum accuracy.
+
+### Trimmed Mean Statistics
+
+The trimmed mean (Winsorized estimator) has well-known statistical properties:
+- **Breakdown point**: 25% (robust to contamination up to 25% of samples)
+- **Efficiency**: ~90% of sample mean under normality
+- **Bias**: Negligible for symmetric distributions
+
+For fat-tailed financial returns, trimmed mean significantly outperforms sample mean in terms of mean squared error.
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
+
+Per-bar operations:
+
+| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| ADD/SUB | 45 | 1 | 45 |
+| MUL | 5 | 3 | 15 |
+| DIV | 2 | 15 | 30 |
+| CMP/ABS | 7 | 1 | 7 |
+| SQRT | 2 | 15 | 30 |
+| EXP | 2 | 50 | 100 |
+| POW | 1 | 80 | 80 |
+| SORT (128 elem) | 1 | ~900 | 900 |
+| **Total** | **65** | — | **~1,207 cycles** |
+
+The 128-element sort dominates (~75% of total cycles).
+
+### Batch Mode (512 values, SIMD/FMA)
+
+JVOLTY is inherently recursive—each bar depends on previous state. Within-bar vectorization is limited:

+
+## Validation
+
+JVOLTY is proprietary. No open-source library implements it. Validation is performed against the decompiled JMA reference implementation.
+
+| Library | Status | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **TA-Lib** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Skender** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Tulip** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Ooples** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **JMA Reference** | ✅ | Extracted from JMA; matches decompiled algorithm |
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Warmup Period Is Long**: JVOLTY requires ~220 bars (for period=14) plus 128 bars to fill the distribution buffer. The `IsHot` property indicates when the indicator has sufficient data, but full distribution stability requires 348+ bars.
+
+2. **Output Range**: JVOLTY returns values ≥1.0. A value of 1.0 means "normal volatility" (current matches historical reference). Values above 1.0 indicate elevated volatility relative to the trimmed mean reference. The maximum is bounded by `logParam` (period-dependent).
+
+3. **Not Traditional Volatility**: JVOLTY is not standard deviation, ATR, or any conventional volatility measure. It's a relative measure: "How does current volatility compare to the robust historical reference?" Direct comparison to other volatility indicators requires normalization.
+
+4. **Computational Cost**: ~1,200 cycles per bar, dominated by the 128-element sort. For high-frequency applications scanning thousands of symbols, consider caching or reduced update frequency.
+
+5. **Memory Footprint**: ~1.5 KB per instance (two ring buffers + state). For 5,000 concurrent instances, budget ~7.5 MB.
+
+6. **Using isNew Incorrectly**: When processing live ticks within the same bar, use `Update(value, isNew: false)`. When a new bar opens, use `isNew: true` (default). Incorrect usage corrupts buffer snapshots and state.
+
+7. **Comparison with JMA**: JVOLTY is a component of JMA, not a replacement. JMA outputs smoothed price; JVOLTY outputs the volatility regime measure that JMA uses internally for adaptation. Use JVOLTY when you need the volatility signal without the price smoothing.
+
+## Use Cases
+
+1. **Volatility Regime Detection**: JVOLTY > 2.0 often indicates a volatility regime shift. Use for strategy switching (trend-following in low volatility, mean-reversion in high volatility).
+
+2. **Position Sizing**: Inverse volatility weighting: `size = base_size / JVOLTY`. Lower volatility → larger position; higher volatility → smaller position.
+
+3. **Stop Loss Adjustment**: ATR-based stops can be scaled by JVOLTY. During elevated volatility (JVOLTY > 1.5), widen stops proportionally.
+
+4. **Filter Adaptation**: Use JVOLTY to adjust other indicator parameters dynamically. Shorter periods during high JVOLTY, longer periods during low JVOLTY.
+
+5. **Regime Change Alerts**: Track JVOLTY crossovers (e.g., crossing above 1.5 or below 1.2) to signal potential market condition changes.

+# JVOLTYN: Normalized Jurik Volatility
+
+> "When you need to compare apples to apples, normalize your volatility—0 is calm, 100 is chaos."
+
+Normalized Jurik Volatility (JVOLTYN) maps the raw JVOLTY dynamic exponent to a 0-100 scale. While JVOLTY outputs values in the range [1, logParam] (where logParam is period-dependent), JVOLTYN transforms this to a universal scale where 0 represents minimum volatility and 100 represents maximum volatility. This normalization enables direct comparison across different periods and instruments.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+JVOLTY extracts the adaptive volatility component from Mark Jurik's JMA algorithm. The raw output—a dynamic exponent clamped between 1.0 and logParam—is meaningful within the JMA context but awkward for standalone analysis. A period-7 JVOLTY might reach 3.5 at maximum while a period-50 JVOLTY peaks at 4.8. Comparing these raw values across instruments or timeframes requires mental gymnastics.
+
+JVOLTYN applies a simple linear normalization that maps the entire valid range to [0, 100]. Now a reading of 50 means "halfway between minimum and maximum volatility" regardless of the underlying period. This makes JVOLTYN suitable for:
+
+- Cross-instrument volatility comparisons
+- Threshold-based strategy rules (e.g., "if volatility > 60, reduce position size")
+- Regime classification (low: 0-30, medium: 30-70, high: 70-100)
+- Heatmap visualization across a portfolio
+
+The normalization is mathematically trivial but practically essential for systematic trading applications.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+JVOLTYN wraps the complete JVOLTY algorithm and applies a final normalization step.
+
+### 1. Core JVOLTY Computation
+
+The full JVOLTY pipeline executes:
+
+1. **Adaptive Envelope**: Tracks price extremes with volatility-adjusted decay
+2. **Local Deviation**: Measures distance from adaptive bands
+3. **Short Volatility**: 10-bar SMA of local deviation
+4. **Distribution Buffer**: 128-sample circular buffer with trimmed mean
+5. **Dynamic Exponent**: Ratio of current to reference volatility, raised to adaptive power
+
+See [JVOLTY documentation](../jvolty/Jvolty.md) for complete algorithmic details.
+
+### 2. Normalization Transform
+
+The raw JVOLTY output $d_t \in [1, \text{logParam}]$ is normalized:
+
+$$
+\text{JVOLTYN}_t = \frac{(d_t - 1)}{\text{logParam} - 1} \times 100
+$$
+
+where:
+- $\text{logParam} = \max(\log_2(\sqrt{L}) + 2, 0)$
+- $L = (N - 1) / 2$
+- $N$ is the period
+
+**Boundary conditions:**
+- $d_t = 1$ → JVOLTYN = 0 (minimum volatility)
+- $d_t = \text{logParam}$ → JVOLTYN = 100 (maximum volatility)
+
+### 3. Precomputed Normalization Factor
+
+For efficiency, the normalization factor is computed once in the constructor:
+
+$$
+\text{normFactor} = \frac{100}{\text{logParam} - 1}
+$$
+
+Then each update simply computes:
+
+$$
+\text{JVOLTYN}_t = (d_t - 1) \times \text{normFactor}
+$$
+
+This avoids repeated division in the hot path.
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Period-Dependent Scaling
+
+The logParam value determines the raw JVOLTY range:
+
+| Period | L | logParam | Max Raw JVOLTY | Norm Factor |
+| :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| 5 | 2.0 | 3.00 | 3.00 | 50.00 |
+| 7 | 3.0 | 3.29 | 3.29 | 43.64 |
+| 10 | 4.5 | 3.58 | 3.58 | 38.76 |
+| 14 | 6.5 | 3.85 | 3.85 | 35.09 |
+| 20 | 9.5 | 4.12 | 4.12 | 32.05 |
+| 50 | 24.5 | 4.78 | 4.78 | 26.46 |
+| 100 | 49.5 | 5.28 | 5.28 | 23.36 |
+
+Longer periods have larger logParam values, meaning the raw JVOLTY has more "headroom" before hitting maximum. The normalization factor compensates for this, ensuring that 100 always represents maximum possible volatility for the given period.
+
+### Edge Case: Very Short Periods
+
+For period = 2 or 3, logParam approaches small values:
+- Period 2: L = 0.5, logParam = max(log₂(0.707) + 2, 0) ≈ 1.5
+- Period 3: L = 1.0, logParam = max(log₂(1.0) + 2, 0) = 2.0
+
+The normalization handles these correctly, though such short periods provide limited statistical significance.
+
+### RawVolatility Property
+
+JVOLTYN exposes the underlying raw JVOLTY value via the `RawVolatility` property. This allows users to access both:
+- `Last.Value` → Normalized [0, 100] output
+- `RawVolatility` → Raw [1, logParam] value
+
+Useful when the normalized value is needed for display but the raw value is needed for JMA adaptation or other calculations.
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
+
+JVOLTYN adds minimal overhead to JVOLTY:
+
+| Operation | JVOLTY | JVOLTYN Addition | Total |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| ADD/SUB | 45 | 1 | 46 |
+| MUL | 5 | 1 | 6 |
+| All other ops | ~1,150 | 0 | ~1,150 |
+| **Total** | **~1,207** | **~2** | **~1,209 cycles** |
+
+The normalization adds ~2 cycles per bar (<0.2% overhead).
+
+### Memory Footprint
+
+Identical to JVOLTY plus one double for the normalization factor:
+- State record struct: ~100 bytes
+- Two ring buffers (10 + 128 elements): ~1.1 KB
+- Normalization factor: 8 bytes
+- **Total per instance**: ~1.5 KB
+
+### Quality Metrics

+| **Comparability** | 10/10 | Universal 0-100 scale |

+| **Regime Detection** | 8/10 | Inherited from JVOLTY |
+| **Stability** | 9/10 | Inherited from JVOLTY |
+| **Interpretability** | 9/10 | Intuitive percentage scale |

+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Not the Same as Percentile Rank**: JVOLTYN is a linear transformation of the raw exponent, not a percentile rank of historical values. A reading of 50 means "halfway between min and max possible" for the current period, not "50th percentile of historical readings."
+
+2. **Period Affects Behavior, Not Scale**: While the 0-100 scale is consistent, the underlying volatility dynamics still depend on period. A period-5 JVOLTYN responds faster than period-50. The normalization doesn't change the algorithm's temporal characteristics.
+
+3. **First Bar Returns 0**: On initialization, JVOLTYN returns 0 (corresponding to raw JVOLTY = 1). This is mathematically correct but may not reflect actual market volatility until the indicator warms up.
+
+4. **Warmup Period Inherited**: JVOLTYN requires the same ~220 bars (for period=14) plus 128 bars for distribution buffer stability. The `IsHot` property indicates warmup completion.
+
+5. **Using RawVolatility for JMA**: If feeding JVOLTYN output to JMA or other algorithms expecting raw JVOLTY values, use `RawVolatility` property, not `Last.Value`.
+
+6. **Threshold Interpretation**: A threshold like "JVOLTYN > 70" means different absolute volatility levels for different periods. Period-14 at JVOLTYN=70 implies raw d ≈ 3.0, while period-50 at JVOLTYN=70 implies raw d ≈ 3.6. For cross-period consistency, this is correct—both represent "70% of maximum possible adaptation."
+
+## Use Cases
+
+1. **Universal Volatility Threshold**: Set position sizing rules using fixed thresholds:
+   - JVOLTYN < 30: Full position size
+   - JVOLTYN 30-60: 75% position size
+   - JVOLTYN > 60: 50% position size
+
+2. **Portfolio Heatmap**: Display JVOLTYN across multiple instruments on a 0-100 color scale. Red indicates high volatility, green indicates low volatility—no per-instrument calibration needed.
+
+3. **Regime Classification**: Classify market regimes using consistent thresholds:
+   ```
+   Low volatility:    JVOLTYN < 25
+   Normal volatility: 25 ≤ JVOLTYN < 60
+   High volatility:   60 ≤ JVOLTYN < 85
+   Extreme volatility: JVOLTYN ≥ 85
+   ```
+
+4. **Strategy Switching**: Toggle between trend-following (JVOLTYN < 40) and mean-reversion (JVOLTYN > 60) strategies based on normalized volatility regime.
+
+5. **Alert Generation**: Trigger alerts when JVOLTYN crosses specific levels (e.g., rises above 75 or falls below 20) without needing to know the underlying period or raw scale.

+/// Developed by Donald Dorsey to identify trend reversals by measuring the narrowing

+/// when Mass Index rises above 27 and then drops below 26.5.
+///
+/// Calculation:
+/// 1. EMA1 = EMA(High - Low, emaLength)
+/// 2. EMA2 = EMA(EMA1, emaLength) (double-smoothed)
+/// 3. Ratio = EMA1 / EMA2
+/// 4. MASSI = Sum(Ratio, sumLength)

+# MASSI: Mass Index
+
+> "The Mass Index doesn't predict direction—it predicts the moment of maximum uncertainty before clarity emerges."
+
+The Mass Index, developed by Donald Dorsey and introduced in the June 1992 issue of *Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities*, identifies potential trend reversals by measuring the narrowing and widening of the range between high and low prices. Unlike directional indicators, MASSI focuses on the *pattern* of range expansion and contraction, particularly the characteristic "reversal bulge" that often precedes significant market turns.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+Donald Dorsey designed the Mass Index to detect trend reversals without predicting direction. His key insight was that range patterns—specifically, a sequence of widening followed by narrowing—often precede major trend changes. The classic signal occurs when MASSI rises above 27 (indicating expanding volatility) and then drops below 26.5 (indicating consolidation), forming what Dorsey called a "reversal bulge."
+
+The indicator gained popularity because it provides advance warning of potential reversals regardless of whether the subsequent move is up or down. This makes it valuable for traders who want to tighten stops or prepare for volatility shifts.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+### 1. Range Input
+
+The Mass Index uses the High-Low range as its primary input:
+
+$$
+\text{Range}_t = \text{High}_t - \text{Low}_t
+$$
+
+This measures the bar's trading range—the battlefield between buyers and sellers.
+
+### 2. Double EMA Smoothing
+
+The range undergoes two levels of exponential smoothing:
+
+$$
+\text{EMA1}_t = \alpha \cdot \text{Range}_t + (1 - \alpha) \cdot \text{EMA1}_{t-1}
+$$
+
+$$
+\text{EMA2}_t = \alpha \cdot \text{EMA1}_t + (1 - \alpha) \cdot \text{EMA2}_{t-1}
+$$
+
+where $\alpha = \frac{2}{\text{emaLength} + 1}$ (default emaLength = 9).
+
+The double smoothing creates a lagged reference. EMA2 always lags EMA1, so their ratio reveals whether range is currently expanding or contracting relative to its recent average.
+
+### 3. Warmup Compensation
+
+This implementation uses proper warmup compensation to eliminate initialization bias:
+
+$$
+e_t = (1 - \alpha) \cdot e_{t-1}, \quad e_0 = 1
+$$
+
+When $e_t > 10^{-10}$, apply compensation factor $c = \frac{1}{1 - e_t}$ to both EMAs. This ensures accurate values from the first bar rather than gradual convergence.
+
+### 4. EMA Ratio
+
+The ratio captures the relationship between current and smoothed range:
+
+$$
+\text{Ratio}_t = \frac{\text{EMA1}_t}{\text{EMA2}_t}
+$$
+
+- Ratio > 1.0: Range is expanding (EMA1 leads EMA2 upward)
+- Ratio < 1.0: Range is contracting (EMA1 leads EMA2 downward)
+- Ratio ≈ 1.0: Range is stable
+
+### 5. Rolling Sum
+
+The final Mass Index sums the ratios over `sumLength` periods (default 25):
+
+$$
+\text{MASSI}_t = \sum_{i=0}^{\text{sumLength}-1} \text{Ratio}_{t-i}
+$$
+
+With stable ranges, ratios hover near 1.0, so MASSI hovers near sumLength (25). Deviations indicate systematic expansion or contraction patterns.
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### EMA Smoothing Coefficient
+
+For emaLength = 9:
+
+$$
+\alpha = \frac{2}{9 + 1} = 0.2
+$$
+
+$$
+\text{decay} = 1 - \alpha = 0.8
+$$
+
+### Reversal Bulge Threshold
+
+The classic signal uses fixed thresholds:
+
+- **Setup**: MASSI rises above 27.0
+- **Trigger**: MASSI falls below 26.5
+
+With sumLength = 25, this means:
+- Above 27: Average ratio > 1.08 (sustained range expansion)
+- Below 26.5: Average ratio < 1.06 (range contraction beginning)
+
+### State Variables
+
+The implementation maintains:
+- `Ema1Raw`: Uncompensated EMA of range
+- `Ema2Raw`: Uncompensated EMA of EMA1
+- `E`: Compensation factor (decays toward 0)
+- `IsCompensated`: Flag for when E <= 1e-10
+- `LastRange`: Last valid range (for NaN handling)
+- `Bars`: Bar counter for warmup tracking
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode)
+
+| Operation | Count | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| FMA (EMA1 update) | 1 | `decay * ema1Raw + alpha * range` |
+| FMA (EMA2 update) | 1 | `decay * ema2Raw + alpha * ema1Raw` |
+| MUL (compensation) | 2 | Only during warmup |
+| DIV (ratio) | 1 | EMA1 / EMA2 |
+| ADD (rolling sum) | 1 | Buffer manages incremental sum |
+| **Total** | **~6** | Per bar after warmup |
+
+### Memory Footprint
+
+- State struct: ~48 bytes
+- RingBuffer: sumLength × 8 bytes (200 bytes for default 25)
+- **Total per instance**: ~250 bytes
+
+### Quality Metrics
+
+| Metric | Score | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **Accuracy** | 9/10 | Exact algorithm with warmup compensation |
+| **Timeliness** | 6/10 | Inherent lag from double EMA + sum window |
+| **False Signals** | 7/10 | Reversal bulge is specific but not infallible |
+| **Simplicity** | 8/10 | Conceptually straightforward |
+| **Actionability** | 7/10 | Clear threshold-based signals |
+
+## Validation
+
+| Library | Status | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **TA-Lib** | ✅ | `MASS` function, matches with proper warmup |
+| **Skender** | ✅ | `GetMassIndex`, matches within tolerance |
+| **Tulip** | ✅ | `mass` function available |
+| **Pine Script** | ✅ | Reference implementation in massi.pine |
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Threshold Rigidity**: The 27/26.5 thresholds were calibrated for Dorsey's original markets. Modern markets may require adjustment. Some practitioners use 26.5/25 or 27.5/27.
+
+2. **No Direction Signal**: MASSI only signals that a reversal may occur, not which direction. Always combine with trend analysis or other directional indicators.
+
+3. **Warmup Period**: Need emaLength + sumLength bars (default: 34) for stable readings. The implementation tracks `IsHot` status.
+
+4. **False Bulges**: Not every bulge above 27 leads to a reversal. The signal works best in conjunction with support/resistance levels or other confirmation.
+
+5. **Range-Only Focus**: MASSI ignores price direction entirely. A stock trending strongly upward with consistent ranges will show stable MASSI readings despite significant price movement.
+
+6. **Parameter Sensitivity**: Shorter emaLength makes the indicator more responsive but noisier. Longer sumLength smooths the output but delays signals.
+
+## Usage Patterns
+
+### Classic Reversal Bulge
+
+```csharp
+var massi = new Massi(9, 25);
+bool setupTriggered = false;
+
+foreach (var bar in bars)
+{
+    var result = massi.Update(bar);
+    
+    if (result.Value > 27.0)
+        setupTriggered = true;
+    
+    if (setupTriggered && result.Value < 26.5)
+    {
+        // Reversal bulge complete - prepare for trend change
+        setupTriggered = false;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Batch Processing
+
+```csharp
+// From TBarSeries
+var massiSeries = Massi.Batch(barSeries, emaLength: 9, sumLength: 25);
+
+// From pre-calculated ranges
+var rangeSeries = /* High - Low values */;
+var massiSeries = Massi.Batch(rangeSeries);
+```
+
+### Span-Based Calculation
+
+```csharp
+Span<double> ranges = stackalloc double[500];
+Span<double> output = stackalloc double[500];
+
+// Fill ranges with High - Low values
+Massi.Calculate(ranges, output, emaLength: 9, sumLength: 25);
+```

+# NATR: Normalized Average True Range
+
+> "The same volatility reads different on different price scales. NATR speaks the universal language of percentages."
+
+NATR normalizes the Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage of the closing price. This is mathematically identical to ATRP (Average True Range Percent)—both compute `(ATR / Close) × 100`. The difference is purely nomenclature: NATR is the term used in TA-Lib and many charting platforms.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+NATR derives from J. Welles Wilder Jr.'s ATR, introduced in his 1978 *New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems*. While Wilder's original ATR provided absolute volatility in price units, traders and quantitative analysts quickly recognized the need for percentage-based normalization.
+
+The "Normalized" moniker became standard in the TA-Lib open-source library, which formalized the calculation as `NATR = (ATR / Close) × 100`. This naming convention spread through the algorithmic trading community, creating the parallel terminology alongside "ATRP" (Average True Range Percent) used in other contexts.
+
+Both names describe the same mathematical transformation: making volatility comparable across instruments with different price levels.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+NATR consists of three cascaded components:
+
+### 1. True Range (TR)
+
+Captures the actual price movement including gaps:
+
+$$
+TR_t = \max(H_t - L_t, |H_t - C_{t-1}|, |L_t - C_{t-1}|)
+$$
+
+Where:
+
+- $H_t$: Current high
+- $L_t$: Current low
+- $C_{t-1}$: Previous close
+
+First bar uses simple range: $TR_0 = H_0 - L_0$
+
+### 2. RMA Smoothing (Wilder's Method)
+
+ATR smooths TR using Wilder's RMA with $\alpha = 1/N$:
+
+$$
+ATR_t = \alpha \cdot TR_t + (1 - \alpha) \cdot ATR_{t-1}
+$$
+
+With warmup compensation to eliminate initialization bias:
+
+$$
+e_t = e_{t-1} \cdot (1 - \alpha), \quad e_0 = 1
+$$
+
+$$
+ATR_{compensated} = \frac{ATR_{raw}}{1 - e_t} \quad \text{when } e_t > \epsilon
+$$
+
+### 3. Percentage Normalization
+
+$$
+NATR_t = \frac{ATR_t}{C_t} \times 100
+$$
+
+This transforms absolute volatility into relative volatility, enabling cross-asset comparison.
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Complete Formula Chain
+
+Given period $N$:
+
+1. **Parameters**: $\alpha = \frac{1}{N}$, $\text{decay} = 1 - \alpha$
+
+2. **True Range**:
+$$
+TR_t = \begin{cases}
+H_t - L_t & \text{if } t = 0 \\
+\max(H_t - L_t, |H_t - C_{t-1}|, |L_t - C_{t-1}|) & \text{otherwise}
+\end{cases}
+$$
+
+3. **RMA with FMA optimization**:
+$$
+ATR_{raw,t} = \text{FMA}(ATR_{raw,t-1}, \text{decay}, \alpha \cdot TR_t)
+$$
+
+4. **Warmup compensation**:
+$$
+ATR_t = \frac{ATR_{raw,t}}{1 - e_t}
+$$
+
+5. **Normalization**:
+$$
+NATR_t = \frac{ATR_t}{C_t} \times 100
+$$
+
+### Warmup Period
+
+Convergence threshold: $e < 0.05$ (5% remaining bias)
+
+$$
+\text{WarmupPeriod} = \left\lceil \frac{\ln(0.05)}{\ln(1 - \alpha)} \right\rceil
+$$
+
+For $N = 14$: $\text{WarmupPeriod} \approx 42$ bars.
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+| Metric | Score | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **Throughput** | 10/10 | O(1) calculation via RMA + single division |
+| **Allocations** | 0 | Zero-allocation streaming; state in record struct |
+| **Complexity** | O(1) | Constant time regardless of period |
+| **Accuracy** | 10/10 | Exact mathematical computation |
+| **Timeliness** | 4/10 | Inherits ATR's lag from RMA smoothing |
+| **Overshoot** | 0/10 | Mathematically bounded |
+| **Smoothness** | 8/10 | Smooth RMA decay; minor noise from close price variation |
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode)
+
+| Operation | Count | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| SUB | 3 | H-L, H-PrevC, L-PrevC |
+| ABS | 2 | Gap calculations |
+| MAX | 2 | True Range selection |
+| FMA | 1 | RMA update |
+| MUL | 1 | Decay for warmup |
+| DIV | 2 | Warmup compensation + percentage |
+| MUL | 1 | × 100 |
+| **Total** | ~12 ops | Dominated by FMA and divisions |
+
+## Validation
+
+NATR is validated by computing ATR from external libraries and applying the same percentage formula.
+
+| Library | Status | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **QuanTAlib** | ✅ | Native implementation |
+| **TA-Lib** | ✅ | Via `(ATR / Close) × 100`; tolerance 0.10 for warmup divergence |
+| **Skender** | ✅ | Via `(GetAtr / Close) × 100` |
+| **Tulip** | ✅ | Via `(atr / Close) × 100` |
+| **Ooples** | ✅ | Via `(CalculateAverageTrueRange / Close) × 100` |
+
+Note: QuanTAlib's warmup-compensated RMA may diverge 4-7% from classic Wilder implementations over long histories. Both approaches are mathematically valid; QuanTAlib prioritizes accurate early-series values.
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### Cross-Asset Volatility Comparison
+
+Compare volatility across different price scales:
+
+| Asset | Price | ATR | NATR |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| Penny Stock | $2.50 | 0.25 | 10.0% |
+| Mid-Cap | $150 | 4.50 | 3.0% |
+| Blue Chip | $500 | 5.00 | 1.0% |
+
+ATR suggests Blue Chip is most volatile. NATR reveals Penny Stock has 10× the relative volatility.
+
+### Volatility-Adjusted Position Sizing
+
+```
+Position Size = (Account Risk %) / NATR
+```
+
+Ensures equal percentage risk per position regardless of asset price.
+
+### Regime Detection
+
+| NATR Range | Interpretation | Strategy Implication |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| < 1% | Low volatility | Mean reversion, tight stops |
+| 1-3% | Normal | Standard trend-following |
+| 3-5% | Elevated | Wider stops, reduced size |
+| > 5% | High volatility | Crisis mode, capital preservation |
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Lag Inheritance**: NATR inherits ATR's smoothing lag. It measures recent volatility, not current or future volatility.
+
+2. **Close Price Spikes**: A sharp close creates transient NATR spikes since it affects both TR (numerator) and the denominator simultaneously.
+
+3. **Near-Zero Prices**: Assets approaching zero produce extreme NATR values. Implement minimum price thresholds.
+
+4. **Gap Sensitivity**: Large overnight gaps inflate TR significantly. Consider using gap-adjusted data for equity analysis.
+
+5. **Warmup Period**: The first 40+ bars (for period=14) contain warmup bias. Use `IsHot` to filter unreliable values.
+
+6. **OHLC Requirement**: NATR requires bar data (Open, High, Low, Close). It cannot be computed from close prices alone. Use `Update(TBar)` not `Update(TValue)`.

+# RSV: Rogers-Satchell Volatility
+
+> "The best estimator is one that extracts maximum information from all available data while remaining robust to the noise of market microstructure."
+
+Rogers-Satchell Volatility (RSV) is a drift-adjusted OHLC-based volatility estimator that uses all four price points (Open, High, Low, Close) to provide more accurate volatility estimates than simpler range-based methods. Developed by L.C.G. Rogers and S.E. Satchell in 1991, this estimator is unique in its ability to account for price drift, making it particularly suitable for trending markets. The implementation uses SMA smoothing and optional annualization.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+Rogers and Satchell introduced this estimator in their 1991 paper "Estimating Variance from High, Low and Closing Prices" published in the Annals of Applied Probability. The key innovation was recognizing that the Parkinson and Garman-Klass estimators assume zero drift (no trend), which can introduce bias during trending markets.
+
+The Rogers-Satchell estimator was designed to be independent of the drift rate, meaning it provides unbiased variance estimates regardless of whether the underlying asset is trending up, down, or sideways. This makes it theoretically superior for real-world markets where trends are common.
+
+The estimator achieves approximately 8.4x the efficiency of close-to-close methods, making it one of the more efficient OHLC-based estimators available. It sits between Garman-Klass (7.4x) and Yang-Zhang (14x) in the efficiency hierarchy.
+
+Unlike Parkinson (HLV) which uses only High-Low, or some implementations that focus on the close-to-close return, RSV extracts information from all four price relationships simultaneously: H/O, H/C, L/O, and L/C.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+### 1. Log Price Ratios
+
+All calculations use log ratios to normalize percentage returns:
+
+$$
+\ln\frac{H_t}{O_t}, \ln\frac{H_t}{C_t}, \ln\frac{L_t}{O_t}, \ln\frac{L_t}{C_t}
+$$
+
+where:
+
+- $O_t, H_t, L_t, C_t$ = Open, High, Low, Close prices at time $t$
+
+Log transformation ensures that equal percentage moves have equal magnitude regardless of price level.
+
+### 2. Rogers-Satchell Variance
+
+The single-period Rogers-Satchell variance estimator:
+
+$$
+\hat{\sigma}^2_{RS,t} = \ln\frac{H_t}{O_t} \cdot \ln\frac{H_t}{C_t} + \ln\frac{L_t}{O_t} \cdot \ln\frac{L_t}{C_t}
+$$
+
+This formula has a beautiful symmetry: both terms are products of log ratios involving the high or low price against both open and close.
+
+**Key Property:** For valid OHLC data, this variance estimate is always non-negative:
+
+- The first term: $\ln(H/O) \geq 0$ and $\ln(H/C) \geq 0$ (since $H \geq O$ and $H \geq C$)
+- The second term: $\ln(L/O) \leq 0$ and $\ln(L/C) \leq 0$ (since $L \leq O$ and $L \leq C$)
+- Both products are non-negative, so the sum is non-negative
+
+### 3. SMA Smoothing
+
+Unlike HLV and GKV which use RMA (Wilder's) smoothing, RSV uses a Simple Moving Average with a circular buffer:
+
+$$
+SMA_t = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=t-n+1}^{t} \hat{\sigma}^2_{RS,i}
+$$
+
+where $n$ = period (default 20).
+
+SMA provides:
+
+- Equal weighting of all observations in the window
+- Complete adaptation after exactly $n$ bars
+- No exponential decay bias requiring correction
+
+### 4. Volatility Calculation
+
+Convert smoothed variance to volatility (standard deviation):
+
+$$
+\sigma_t = \sqrt{\max(0, SMA_t)}
+$$
+
+The max(0, ...) guard protects against potential floating-point artifacts.
+
+### 5. Optional Annualization
+
+If annualization is enabled (default):
+
+$$
+\sigma_{annual,t} = \sigma_t \times \sqrt{N}
+$$
+
+where $N$ = annual periods (default 252 trading days).
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Drift Independence
+
+The Rogers-Satchell estimator's key mathematical property is its independence from drift. For a geometric Brownian motion:
+
+$$
+dS = \mu S dt + \sigma S dW
+$$
+
+The standard close-to-close variance estimator:
+
+$$
+\hat{\sigma}^2_{CC} = (\ln C_t - \ln C_{t-1})^2
+$$
+
+includes the drift term $\mu dt$, biasing the estimate.
+
+The Rogers-Satchell formula, through its specific combination of high-low-open-close ratios, cancels out the drift component mathematically, yielding an unbiased estimate of $\sigma^2$ regardless of $\mu$.
+
+### Why This Formula Works
+
+Consider the log price path within a single bar:
+
+- The high and low represent extrema of the Brownian path
+- The open-to-high and close-to-high paths share the high point
+- The open-to-low and close-to-low paths share the low point
+
+The product structure $\ln(H/O) \cdot \ln(H/C)$ captures the "spread" between how far the high was from both boundaries (open and close). Similarly for the low. This geometric information is invariant to drift.
+
+### Comparison of Variance Formulas
+
+| Estimator | Formula | Drift Adjustment |
+| :--- | :--- | :---: |
+| Close-to-Close | $(\ln C/C_{prev})^2$ | None |
+| Parkinson | $\frac{1}{4\ln 2}(\ln H/L)^2$ | None |
+| Garman-Klass | $\frac{1}{2}(\ln H/L)^2 - (2\ln 2-1)(\ln C/O)^2$ | Partial |
+| **Rogers-Satchell** | $\ln(H/O)\ln(H/C) + \ln(L/O)\ln(L/C)$ | **Full** |
+| Yang-Zhang | RS + overnight + open-close | Full |
+
+### Efficiency Comparison
+
+| Estimator | Relative Efficiency | Data Required |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| Close-to-Close | 1.0 | C |
+| Parkinson (HLV) | 5.2 | H, L |
+| Garman-Klass (GKV) | 7.4 | O, H, L, C |
+| **Rogers-Satchell (RSV)** | **8.4** | **O, H, L, C** |
+| Yang-Zhang | 14.0 | O, H, L, C (+ prev C) |
+
+RSV achieves 8.4x the efficiency of close-to-close, meaning it produces the same statistical precision with 8.4x fewer observations.
+
+### SMA Properties
+
+**Period Characteristics:**
+
+| Period | Window Size | Adaptation Time |
+| :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| 10 | 10 bars | Complete after 10 bars |
+| 14 | 14 bars | Complete after 14 bars |
+| 20 | 20 bars | Complete after 20 bars |
+
+SMA (unlike RMA) has no exponential tail — old values are completely dropped after exactly $period$ bars.
+
+### Annualization Factor
+
+For daily data with 252 trading days:
+
+$$
+\sqrt{252} \approx 15.875
+$$
+
+Common annualization factors:
+
+| Data Frequency | Periods/Year | Factor |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: |
+| Daily | 252 | 15.875 |
+| Weekly | 52 | 7.211 |
+| Monthly | 12 | 3.464 |
+| Hourly (6.5h/day) | 1638 | 40.472 |
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
+
+Per-bar operations after warmup:
+
+| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| DIV | 4 | 15 | 60 |
+| LOG | 4 | 25 | 100 |
+| MUL | 2 | 3 | 6 |
+| ADD | 1 | 1 | 1 |
+| Buffer update | 1 | 3 | 3 |
+| SMA sum | 1 | 5 | 5 |
+| DIV (SMA) | 1 | 15 | 15 |
+| SQRT | 1 | 15 | 15 |
+| MUL (annual) | 1 | 3 | 3 |
+| **Total** | — | — | **~208 cycles** |
+
+The dominant cost is the four LOG operations (48% of total). RSV is ~40% slower than HLV but provides drift independence.
+
+### Batch Mode (512 values, SIMD/FMA)
+
+| Operation | Scalar Ops | SIMD Ops (AVX2) | Speedup |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| LOG (vectorized) | 2048 | 256 | 8× |
+| DIV (vectorized) | 2048 | 256 | 8× |
+| MUL/ADD (FMA) | 1536 | 192 | 8× |
+| SMA (sliding sum) | 512 | 512 | 1× |
+| SQRT (vectorized) | 512 | 64 | 8× |
+
+**Note:** SMA computation can be optimized with a rolling sum (O(1) per bar) but is inherently sequential for the running state.
+
+### Memory Profile
+
+- **Per instance:** ~88 + 8×period bytes (state + circular buffer)
+- **With period=20:** ~248 bytes
+- **100 instances (period=20):** ~24.8 KB
+
+### Quality Metrics
+
+| Metric | Score | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **Accuracy** | 9/10 | Drift-adjusted, unbiased |
+| **Efficiency** | 8/10 | 8.4x better than close-to-close |
+| **Timeliness** | 8/10 | SMA provides faster adaptation than RMA |
+| **Smoothness** | 7/10 | SMA can be jumpier than RMA |
+| **Robustness** | 8/10 | Handles trends well |

+RSV is well-documented in academic literature but implementations vary:
+
+| Library | Status | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **TA-Lib** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Skender** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Tulip** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **OoplesFinance** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **PineScript** | ✅ | Matches rsv.pine reference |
+| **Manual** | ✅ | Validated against original paper formula |
+
+The implementation is validated against the original Rogers-Satchell 1991 paper formula.
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Warmup period**: RSV requires $period$ bars before producing stable results. With default period=20, the first 19 values are warming up. The `IsHot` property indicates when warmup is complete.
+
+2. **OHLC data quality**: RSV requires all four OHLC prices. Missing or invalid data (high < low, prices ≤ 0) will trigger last-valid-value substitution. Ensure data quality before feeding to RSV.
+
+3. **Zero prices**: Log ratios require positive prices. Prices of zero are clamped to a small epsilon (1e-10) to prevent log(0) = -∞.
+
+4. **Annualization assumption**: Default annualization assumes 252 trading days/year. For other frequencies (hourly, weekly), adjust the `annualPeriods` parameter accordingly.
+
+5. **SMA vs RMA**: Unlike HLV/GKV which use RMA, RSV uses SMA. This means:
+   - Complete adaptation after exactly $period$ bars (faster)
+   - No bias correction needed
+   - Can be "jumpier" when old high/low variance values drop out of the window
+
+6. **Comparison with HLV**: HLV only uses High-Low, ignoring Open-Close. RSV uses all four prices and is drift-adjusted. Use RSV when OHLC data is available and markets are trending; use HLV when only High-Low data exists.
+
+7. **Comparison with GKV**: Both use OHLC, but RSV is fully drift-adjusted while GKV is only partially. RSV is slightly more efficient (8.4x vs 7.4x) and better for trending markets.
+
+## Trading Applications
+
+### Position Sizing
+
+Use RSV to scale position sizes inversely with volatility:
+
+```
+Position size = Risk per trade / (RSV × Price × multiplier)
+```
+
+Lower RSV allows larger positions; higher RSV requires smaller positions. RSV's drift adjustment makes it more reliable during trends.
+
+### Volatility Regime Detection
+
+Track RSV percentile rank over lookback period:
+
+```
+High rank (>80%): High volatility regime — reduce position size, widen stops
+Low rank (<20%): Low volatility regime — potential for breakout
+```
+
+### Options Pricing Input
+
+RSV provides a realized volatility estimate for comparison with implied volatility:
+
+```
+If IV > RSV significantly: Options may be overpriced (sell vol)
+If IV < RSV significantly: Options may be underpriced (buy vol)
+```
+
+RSV's drift adjustment makes it preferable to HLV/GKV for options analysis during trending markets.
+
+### Trend Quality Assessment
+
+Compare RSV with simpler estimators during trends:
+
+```
+If RSV ≈ HLV: Low drift, range-bound market
+If RSV < HLV: Significant drift (trending), HLV is overstating vol
+```
+
+### Stop-Loss Calibration
+
+Use RSV to set dynamic stop-loss levels:
+
+```
+Stop distance = Entry price ± (RSV × K × Price)
+where K is a multiplier (typically 1.5-3.0)
+```
+
+RSV's drift adjustment prevents stops from being set too wide during strong trends.
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+### Circular Buffer for SMA
+
+The implementation uses a fixed-size circular buffer for O(1) updates:
+
+```csharp
+// Buffer stores RS variance values
+_buffer[_bufferIndex] = rsVariance;
+_bufferIndex = (_bufferIndex + 1) % _period;
+_bufferSum = _bufferSum - oldest + rsVariance;
+```
+
+This avoids O(n) summation on each update.
+
+### Price Protection
+
+All price ratios are protected against zero/negative values:
+
+```csharp
+open = Math.Max(open, 1e-10);
+close = Math.Max(close, 1e-10);
+```
+
+### FMA Optimization
+
+The variance calculation uses FMA where beneficial:
+
+```csharp
+rsVariance = Math.FusedMultiplyAdd(lnHO, lnHC, lnLO * lnLC);
+```

+# RV: Realized Volatility
+
+> "The sum of squared returns—a direct measure of how much the market actually moved, free from the assumptions embedded in standard deviation."
+
+Realized Volatility (RV) measures price volatility using the sum of squared logarithmic returns over a rolling window, then applying SMA smoothing for stability. Unlike traditional Historical Volatility (HV) which calculates standard deviation of returns, RV directly accumulates squared returns—the raw building blocks of variance—providing a more direct measure of realized price variation.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+Realized volatility emerged from the academic literature on high-frequency econometrics in the late 1990s and early 2000s, most notably through the work of Andersen, Bollerslev, Diebold, and Labys (2001). The concept was developed to provide model-free volatility estimates using intraday data, addressing limitations of parametric approaches like GARCH.
+
+The key insight was that as sampling frequency increases, the sum of squared returns converges to the quadratic variation of the price process—the true integrated variance. While the original formulation targeted tick-by-tick or 5-minute returns, the concept applies at any frequency.
+
+This implementation adapts the realized volatility concept to standard bar data:
+- Calculate squared log returns within a rolling window (period)
+- Take the square root to convert variance to volatility
+- Apply SMA smoothing for noise reduction
+- Optionally annualize for comparability
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+### 1. Log Return Calculation
+
+Each period's return is computed as the natural logarithm of price ratios:
+
+$$
+r_t = \ln\left(\frac{P_t}{P_{t-1}}\right)
+$$
+
+where:
+
+- $P_t$ = Closing price at time $t$
+- $P_{t-1}$ = Closing price at time $t-1$
+
+### 2. Squared Return Accumulation
+
+The realized variance is the sum of squared returns over the rolling window:
+
+$$
+RVar_t = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} r_{t-i}^2
+$$
+
+where $n$ = period (default 5).
+
+This differs from standard variance which subtracts the mean:
+- Standard variance: $\sigma^2 = E[(X - \mu)^2]$
+- Realized variance: $RVar = \sum r^2$ (assumes zero mean over short windows)
+
+### 3. Volatility Conversion
+
+Convert realized variance to volatility (standard deviation scale):
+
+$$
+RVol_t = \sqrt{RVar_t}
+$$
+
+### 4. SMA Smoothing
+
+Apply simple moving average to smooth the raw volatility:
+
+$$
+RV_t = \frac{1}{m} \sum_{i=0}^{m-1} RVol_{t-i}
+$$
+
+where $m$ = smoothingPeriod (default 20).
+
+### 5. Optional Annualization
+
+If annualization is enabled:
+
+$$
+RV_{annual,t} = RV_t \times \sqrt{N}
+$$
+
+where $N$ = annual periods (default 252 trading days).
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Theoretical Basis
+
+Under the standard diffusion model $dS = \mu S dt + \sigma S dW$, the quadratic variation is:
+
+$$
+\langle \ln S \rangle_T = \int_0^T \sigma^2 dt
+$$
+
+The realized variance estimator:
+
+$$
+RVar = \sum_{i=1}^{n} r_i^2
+$$
+
+is a consistent estimator of integrated variance as the sampling frequency increases.
+
+### Why Sum Squared Returns (Not Standard Deviation)?
+
+The realized volatility approach differs from HV in a subtle but important way:
+
+| Aspect | HV (Standard Deviation) | RV (Sum Squared Returns) |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **Formula** | $\sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\sum(r - \bar{r})^2}$ | $\sqrt{\sum r^2}$ |
+| **Mean treatment** | Subtracts sample mean | Assumes zero mean |
+| **Interpretation** | Dispersion around mean | Total quadratic variation |
+| **Best for** | Longer windows | Short windows, intraday |
+
+For short windows (5-10 bars), the mean return is essentially noise. RV avoids estimating this noisy mean, providing a more stable measure.
+
+### Relationship to HV
+
+For a window with $n$ returns and mean $\bar{r}$:
+
+$$
+\sum r_i^2 = n \cdot \sigma_{pop}^2 + n \cdot \bar{r}^2
+$$
+
+When the mean is small (short windows, mean-reverting markets), both measures converge. RV will be slightly higher when there's a directional move within the window.
+
+### SMA Smoothing Rationale
+
+Raw realized volatility can be noisy, especially with small period values. The SMA smoothing:
+- Reduces day-to-day noise
+- Provides more stable signals
+- Allows customization (shorter smoothing = more responsive, longer = more stable)
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
+
+Per-bar operations after warmup:
+
+| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| LOG | 1 | 25 | 25 |
+| DIV (price ratio) | 1 | 15 | 15 |
+| MUL (squared) | 1 | 3 | 3 |
+| ADD/SUB (ring buffer) | 2 | 1 | 2 |
+| SQRT | 1 | 15 | 15 |
+| ADD/SUB (SMA) | 2 | 1 | 2 |
+| DIV (SMA) | 1 | 15 | 15 |
+| MUL (annualize) | 1 | 3 | 3 |
+| **Total** | — | — | **~80 cycles** |
+
+The dominant costs are LOG (31%) and SQRT/DIV (19% each).
+
+### Memory Profile
+
+- **Per instance:** ~120 bytes (state struct + two RingBuffer references)
+- **Return buffer:** 8 bytes × period (default 5 = 40 bytes)
+- **Volatility buffer:** 8 bytes × smoothingPeriod (default 20 = 160 bytes)
+- **100 instances @ defaults:** ~32 KB
+
+### Quality Metrics
+
+| Metric | Score | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **Accuracy** | 7/10 | Model-free, converges to integrated variance |
+| **Timeliness** | 8/10 | Short period captures recent moves quickly |
+| **Smoothness** | 7/10 | SMA smoothing provides stability |
+| **Flexibility** | 8/10 | Two parameters allow tuning responsiveness |
+| **Simplicity** | 8/10 | Clear interpretation, straightforward implementation |
+
+## Validation
+
+RV is a custom implementation based on the realized volatility literature. Direct library comparisons are not available:
+
+| Library | Status | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **TA-Lib** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Skender** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Tulip** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **OoplesFinance** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **PineScript** | ✅ | Matches rv.pine reference |
+| **Manual** | ✅ | Validated against formula |
+
+The implementation is validated against the mathematical formula and internal consistency tests (streaming = batch = span).
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Warmup period**: RV requires `period + smoothingPeriod` prices before producing valid results. With defaults (5, 20), you need 25 prices. The `IsHot` property indicates when warmup is complete.
+
+2. **Zero or negative prices**: Log transformation requires positive prices. Zero or negative values trigger last-valid-value substitution to prevent NaN propagation.
+
+3. **Period selection**: The period parameter controls how many squared returns are summed. Shorter periods (3-5) capture recent volatility bursts; longer periods (10-20) provide more stable variance estimates.
+
+4. **Smoothing vs responsiveness trade-off**: Higher smoothingPeriod reduces noise but increases lag. For trading signals, consider shorter smoothing (5-10); for regime detection, longer smoothing (20-50).
+
+5. **Comparison with HV**: RV measures total squared returns; HV measures dispersion around mean. During strong trends, RV > HV because it captures the directional move. Neither is "better"—they measure different things.
+
+6. **Annualization assumptions**: Default annualization assumes 252 trading days. Adjust for intraday data, cryptocurrency (365 days), or weekly data.
+
+7. **Minimum period constraint**: Period must be ≥ 2 to have at least one squared return in the window. SmoothingPeriod must be ≥ 1.
+
+8. **Not the same as VIX methodology**: VIX uses option prices to derive implied volatility. This RV measures realized (historical) volatility from price data only.
+
+## Trading Applications
+
+### Volatility Regime Detection
+
+Track RV percentile over lookback:
+
+```
+High RV (>80th percentile): High volatility regime
+- Markets are moving significantly
+- Consider wider stops, reduced position sizes
+- Mean reversion in volatility may be near
+
+Low RV (<20th percentile): Low volatility regime
+- Markets are quiet
+- Breakout potential increasing
+- Options may be cheap
+```
+
+### Realized vs Implied Volatility Spread
+
+Compare RV with option-implied volatility:
+
+```
+IV > RV (positive spread): Options are relatively expensive
+- Volatility selling strategies may be attractive
+- Market expects future volatility > recent realized
+
+IV < RV (negative spread): Options are relatively cheap
+- Volatility buying strategies may be attractive
+- Market may be underpricing risk
+```
+
+### Position Sizing
+
+Use RV for volatility-adjusted sizing:
+
+```
+Base position × (Target RV / Current RV)
+
+Example: If target is 15% annualized volatility and current RV is 30%:
+Position = Base × (0.15 / 0.30) = 50% of base
+```
+
+### Volatility Breakout Strategy
+
+```
+Entry: RV crosses above X-day high RV
+Exit: RV falls below Y-day average RV
+
+The period and smoothingPeriod parameters allow tuning:
+- Short period + short smoothing: Catch quick volatility spikes
+- Longer period + longer smoothing: Identify sustained regime changes
+```
+
+### Comparing Multiple Timeframes
+
+```
+RV(5, 5) vs RV(5, 20) vs RV(5, 50)
+
+Converging: Volatility regime is stable
+Diverging (short > long): Recent volatility spike
+Diverging (short < long): Volatility compression
+```

+# RVI: Relative Volatility Index
+
+> "Not all volatility is created equal—upward volatility feels like profit, downward volatility feels like loss. RVI separates these psychological experiences into a quantifiable measure."
+
+The Relative Volatility Index (RVI) is a directional volatility oscillator that distinguishes between upward and downward price volatility. Originally developed by Donald Dorsey in 1993, RVI measures the standard deviation of closing prices and categorizes this volatility based on whether prices are rising or falling. The result is an oscillator bounded between 0 and 100, where values above 50 indicate upward volatility dominance and values below 50 indicate downward volatility dominance.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+Donald Dorsey introduced the Relative Volatility Index in the June 1993 issue of *Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities* magazine. Dorsey designed RVI as a confirmation indicator rather than a standalone signal generator, intending it to be used alongside RSI to confirm trend strength and momentum.
+
+The key innovation was separating volatility into directional components. Traditional volatility measures (standard deviation, ATR) treat upward and downward price movements identically. Dorsey recognized that traders experience these movements differently: upward volatility in a long position feels like opportunity, while downward volatility feels like risk.
+
+The original 1993 formula used a 10-period standard deviation and 14-period Wilder's smoothing (RMA). This implementation follows the PineScript reference which uses bias-corrected RMA to ensure proper warmup behavior during the initial periods.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+### 1. Rolling Population Standard Deviation
+
+First, compute the population standard deviation of closing prices over `stdevLength` periods:
+
+$$
+\sigma_t = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(P_{t-i} - \bar{P})^2}{n}}
+$$
+
+where:
+
+- $P_t$ = Closing price at time $t$
+- $\bar{P}$ = Mean of prices in the window
+- $n$ = `stdevLength` (default 10)
+
+The computational form uses running sums for O(1) updates:
+
+$$
+\sigma_t = \sqrt{\frac{\sum P_i^2}{n} - \left(\frac{\sum P_i}{n}\right)^2}
+$$
+
+### 2. Directional Classification
+
+Based on price change direction, assign the volatility to either upward or downward:
+
+$$
+\text{upStd}_t = \begin{cases}
+\sigma_t & \text{if } P_t > P_{t-1} \\
+0 & \text{otherwise}
+\end{cases}
+$$
+
+$$
+\text{downStd}_t = \begin{cases}
+\sigma_t & \text{if } P_t < P_{t-1} \\
+0 & \text{otherwise}
+\end{cases}
+$$
+
+Note: When $P_t = P_{t-1}$ (unchanged), both upStd and downStd are zero. The volatility is "orphaned" rather than assigned to either direction.
+
+### 3. Bias-Corrected RMA Smoothing
+
+Both directional volatilities are smoothed using Wilder's RMA (Exponential Moving Average with $\alpha = 1/n$) with bias correction for proper warmup:
+
+**Raw RMA update:**
+
+$$
+\text{raw}_t = \frac{\text{raw}_{t-1} \cdot (n-1) + x_t}{n}
+$$
+
+**Bias correction factor:**
+
+$$
+e_t = (1 - \alpha) \cdot e_{t-1}
+$$
+
+**Corrected output:**
+
+$$
+\text{avgStd}_t = \begin{cases}
+\frac{\text{raw}_t}{1 - e_t} & \text{if } e_t > \epsilon \\
+\text{raw}_t & \text{otherwise}
+\end{cases}
+$$
+
+where $\alpha = 1/\text{rmaLength}$ and $\epsilon = 10^{-10}$.
+
+This bias correction compensates for the zero initialization of raw RMA, preventing artificially low values during warmup.
+
+### 4. Final RVI Calculation
+
+$$
+\text{RVI}_t = \begin{cases}
+100 \times \frac{\text{avgUpStd}_t}{\text{avgUpStd}_t + \text{avgDownStd}_t} & \text{if sum} > 0 \\
+50 & \text{otherwise}
+\end{cases}
+$$
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Relationship to RSI
+
+RVI shares structural similarity with RSI, but measures different quantities:
+
+| Aspect | RSI | RVI |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **Measures** | Price changes | Price volatility |
+| **Up component** | Positive price change | Stddev when price rises |
+| **Down component** | Negative price change | Stddev when price falls |
+| **Formula** | $100 \times \frac{\text{avgGain}}{\text{avgGain} + \text{avgLoss}}$ | $100 \times \frac{\text{avgUpStd}}{\text{avgUpStd} + \text{avgDownStd}}$ |
+| **Range** | 0-100 | 0-100 |
+
+Both use RMA smoothing for the components.
+
+### Bias Correction Derivation
+
+Standard RMA initialized to zero produces biased estimates during warmup. After $t$ updates:
+
+$$
+\text{bias} = (1 - \alpha)^t
+$$
+
+The correction factor $1/(1-e_t)$ cancels this bias, ensuring unbiased estimates from the first bar.
+
+### Interpretation Zones
+
+| RVI Range | Interpretation |
+| :---: | :--- |
+| 80-100 | Strong upward volatility dominance |
+| 60-80 | Moderate upward volatility |
+| 40-60 | Neutral/balanced volatility |
+| 20-40 | Moderate downward volatility |
+| 0-20 | Strong downward volatility dominance |
+
+### Warmup Period
+
+RVI requires `stdevLength` bars for the standard deviation calculation plus additional bars for RMA convergence. Effective warmup:
+
+$$
+\text{warmup} \approx \text{stdevLength} + 3 \times \text{rmaLength}
+$$
+
+With defaults (10, 14): approximately 52 bars for 95% convergence.
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
+
+Per-bar operations after warmup:
+
+| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| ADD/SUB | 8 | 1 | 8 |
+| MUL | 6 | 3 | 18 |
+| DIV | 5 | 15 | 75 |
+| SQRT | 1 | 15 | 15 |
+| CMP | 3 | 1 | 3 |
+| **Total** | — | — | **~119 cycles** |
+
+Dominant cost: five divisions (63%) for variance calculation and RMA updates.
+
+### Memory Profile
+
+- **State struct:** ~88 bytes (stddev buffer, RMA states, counters)
+- **RingBuffer:** 8 bytes × stdevLength (default 80 bytes)
+- **100 instances @ defaults:** ~16.8 KB
+
+### Quality Metrics
+
+| Metric | Score | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **Accuracy** | 8/10 | Precise directional volatility measurement |
+| **Timeliness** | 7/10 | RMA smoothing introduces lag |
+| **Responsiveness** | 7/10 | Responds to volatility regime changes |
+| **Smoothness** | 8/10 | Double smoothing (stddev + RMA) |
+| **Interpretability** | 9/10 | Clear 0-100 scale with intuitive meaning |
+
+## Validation
+
+| Library | Status | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **TA-Lib** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Skender** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **Tulip** | N/A | Not implemented |
+| **OoplesFinance** | ❔ | Different algorithm (RSI-based) |
+| **PineScript** | ✅ | Matches rvi.pine reference |
+
+Note: Some libraries implement "RVI" as a different indicator (often RSI applied to volatility). This implementation follows Dorsey's original design using directional standard deviation.
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Confusion with other RVI indicators**: "RVI" name is used for at least three different indicators. Dorsey's original (this implementation) uses directional standard deviation. Others use RSI-like calculations on price or volume. Verify the algorithm before comparing values.
+
+2. **Unchanged price handling**: When price doesn't change ($P_t = P_{t-1}$), the volatility is orphaned (neither up nor down). Extended flat periods push RVI toward 50 regardless of prior trend.
+
+3. **Warmup period**: With defaults, RVI needs ~52 bars to converge. Early values may be misleading. The `IsHot` property indicates warmup completion.
+
+4. **Not a standalone signal**: Dorsey designed RVI as a confirmation indicator. Use with RSI or trend indicators, not alone. High RVI confirms uptrend strength; low RVI confirms downtrend strength.
+
+5. **Volatility vs direction confusion**: RVI measures which direction has MORE volatility, not which direction price is moving. A slow steady uptrend with occasional sharp drops can show low RVI despite rising prices.
+
+6. **Parameter sensitivity**: Shorter stdevLength increases noise sensitivity. Longer rmaLength increases lag. Default 10/14 balances responsiveness and stability.
+
+7. **Zero denominator**: When both avgUpStd and avgDownStd approach zero (flat market), RVI defaults to 50. This is mathematically correct but may mask the lack of volatility.
+
+## Trading Applications
+
+### Trend Confirmation (Dorsey's Original Use)
+
+Combine with RSI for confirmation:
+
+```
+RSI > 50 AND RVI > 50: Confirmed uptrend
+RSI < 50 AND RVI < 50: Confirmed downtrend
+RSI > 50 AND RVI < 50: Divergence - uptrend weakening
+RSI < 50 AND RVI > 50: Divergence - downtrend weakening
+```
+
+### Volatility Regime Detection
+
+Track RVI for directional volatility shifts:
+
+```
+RVI crossing above 60: Upward volatility expanding
+RVI crossing below 40: Downward volatility expanding
+RVI oscillating 40-60: Balanced/consolidating
+```
+
+### Entry/Exit Filters
+
+Use RVI as a filter for other signals:
+
+```
+Only take long entries when RVI > 50 (upward volatility dominance)
+Only take short entries when RVI < 50 (downward volatility dominance)
+```
+
+### Divergence Trading
+
+RVI divergences from price can signal reversals:
+
+```
+Price making higher highs + RVI making lower highs: Bearish divergence
+Price making lower lows + RVI making higher lows: Bullish divergence
+```

+# TR: True Range
+
+> "The true measure of volatility isn't just where price traveled within the bar, but whether it leaped from where it was."
+
+True Range (TR) is a volatility measure that captures the maximum price movement for each bar, including any gap from the previous close. Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. in 1978, TR forms the foundation for Average True Range (ATR) and numerous other volatility-based indicators. Unlike simple High-Low range, TR accounts for overnight gaps and opening jumps, providing a complete picture of price movement.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+J. Welles Wilder Jr. introduced True Range in his seminal 1978 book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems." This same work introduced many other foundational indicators including RSI, ATR, Parabolic SAR, and the ADX family.
+
+Wilder recognized that the traditional High-Low range fails to capture the full extent of price movement when markets gap at the open. A stock might have a narrow intraday range but a massive overnight gap—the simple High-Low would miss this volatility entirely. True Range solves this by considering the previous close as a potential extreme.
+
+The elegance of TR lies in its simplicity: take the maximum of three simple calculations. This approach captures all possible price extremes while requiring minimal data (just High, Low, Close, and the previous Close). TR became the building block for ATR, which Wilder used extensively for stop-loss placement and position sizing.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+### 1. Three Range Components
+
+True Range considers three potential extremes:
+
+$$
+TR_1 = H_t - L_t
+$$
+
+$$
+TR_2 = |H_t - C_{t-1}|
+$$
+
+$$
+TR_3 = |L_t - C_{t-1}|
+$$
+
+where:
+
+- $H_t, L_t$ = High, Low of current bar
+- $C_{t-1}$ = Close of previous bar
+
+### 2. True Range Calculation
+
+The True Range is the maximum of all three components:
+
+$$
+TR_t = \max(TR_1, TR_2, TR_3)
+$$
+
+Expanded:
+
+$$
+TR_t = \max(H_t - L_t, |H_t - C_{t-1}|, |L_t - C_{t-1}|)
+$$
+
+### 3. First Bar Handling
+
+For the first bar (no previous close available):
+
+$$
+TR_0 = H_0 - L_0
+$$
+
+The implementation uses only the High-Low range when there's no history to reference.
+
+### 4. Scenario Analysis
+
+**No Gap (prevClose within H-L range):**
+
+When $L_t \leq C_{t-1} \leq H_t$:
+
+$$
+TR_t = H_t - L_t
+$$
+
+The intraday range captures all movement since the gap components ($TR_2$, $TR_3$) are smaller.
+
+**Gap Up (prevClose below Low):**
+
+When $C_{t-1} < L_t$:
+
+$$
+TR_t = H_t - C_{t-1} = TR_2
+$$
+
+The gap up contributes to the range; price moved from yesterday's close to today's high.
+
+**Gap Down (prevClose above High):**
+
+When $C_{t-1} > H_t$:
+
+$$
+TR_t = C_{t-1} - L_t = TR_3
+$$
+
+The gap down contributes; price moved from yesterday's close to today's low.
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Why Three Components?
+
+Consider a price bar with these values:
+
+- Yesterday close: $C_{t-1} = 100$
+- Today open: $O_t = 95$ (gap down)
+- Today high: $H_t = 98$
+- Today low: $L_t = 93$
+- Today close: $C_t = 96$
+
+Traditional range: $H_t - L_t = 98 - 93 = 5$
+
+True Range components:
+
+- $TR_1 = 98 - 93 = 5$
+- $TR_2 = |98 - 100| = 2$
+- $TR_3 = |93 - 100| = 7$
+
+$$
+TR_t = \max(5, 2, 7) = 7
+$$
+
+The market actually moved 7 points (from 100 down to 93), not just 5. TR captures this correctly.
+
+### Geometric Interpretation
+
+True Range measures the maximum vertical distance price could have traveled from the previous close through today's bar. Visualize it as:
+
+```
+Gap Down Case:
+                  ┌── prevClose (100)
+                  │
+                  │  ← TR = 7
+                  │
+Today's Bar: [93 ──── 98]
+                Low    High
+```
+
+### Properties
+
+1. **Non-negativity**: $TR_t \geq 0$ always
+2. **Lower bound**: $TR_t \geq H_t - L_t$ (always at least the intraday range)
+3. **Unit**: Same unit as price (dollars, points, etc.)
+4. **No smoothing**: TR is a bar-by-bar calculation with no lookback
+5. **Immediate**: TR is "hot" after just one bar (WarmupPeriod = 1)
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
+
+Per-bar operations:
+
+| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| SUB | 3 | 1 | 3 |
+| ABS | 2 | 1 | 2 |
+| MAX | 2 | 1 | 2 |
+| **Total** | — | — | **~7 cycles** |
+
+TR is extremely lightweight—one of the cheapest indicators to compute. No logarithms, no division, no transcendental functions.
+
+### Batch Mode (512 values, SIMD/FMA)
+
+| Operation | Scalar Ops | SIMD Ops (AVX2) | Speedup |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| Subtractions | 1536 | 192 | 8× |
+| Absolute values | 1024 | 128 | 8× |
+| Maximum | 1024 | 128 | 8× |
+
+All operations vectorize perfectly with AVX2. No sequential dependencies limit SIMD utilization.
+
+### Memory Profile
+
+- **Per instance:** ~48 bytes (state struct)
+- **No ring buffer required** (only needs previous close)
+- **100 instances:** ~4.8 KB
+
+### Quality Metrics
+
+| Metric | Score | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **Accuracy** | 10/10 | Exact calculation, no approximations |
+| **Timeliness** | 10/10 | Zero lag, bar-by-bar |
+| **Smoothness** | 2/10 | Unsmoothed, can be jagged |
+| **Simplicity** | 10/10 | Three comparisons, one max |
+| **Foundation** | 10/10 | Building block for ATR, etc. |
+
+## Validation
+
+TR is universally implemented with identical formulas:
+
+| Library | Status | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **TA-Lib** | ✅ | Exact match (TRANGE function) |
+| **Skender** | ✅ | Exact match |
+| **Tulip** | ✅ | Exact match |
+| **OoplesFinance** | ✅ | Exact match |
+| **PineScript** | ✅ | Matches tr.pine reference |
+| **Manual** | ✅ | Validated against Wilder formula |
+
+TR is one of the most consistently implemented indicators across all libraries.
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **First bar handling**: The first bar has no previous close. The implementation uses High-Low for the first bar. Some implementations return NaN for the first bar—this one returns a valid (though incomplete) value.
+
+2. **Confusing TR with ATR**: TR is the raw, unsmoothed value per bar. ATR is TR smoothed over a period. TR can be very volatile; ATR provides a more stable volatility estimate.
+
+3. **Unit dependency**: TR is in the same units as price. A $500 stock might have TR=10 while a $50 stock has TR=1, even if percentage volatility is identical. Use NATR (Normalized ATR) or ATRP (ATR Percent) for percentage-based comparisons.
+
+4. **Gap sensitivity**: TR captures gaps, which may or may not be desirable. For intraday-only volatility, use High-Low range instead.
+
+5. **Comparing across assets**: Don't compare raw TR values across different-priced assets. TR=5 means different things for a $20 stock vs a $200 stock.
+
+6. **Weekend/holiday gaps**: TR will capture large gaps after market closures. This may inflate volatility estimates around holidays. Some strategies filter these bars.
+
+## Trading Applications
+
+### Stop-Loss Placement (via ATR)
+
+TR is the foundation for ATR-based stops:
+
+```
+Long stop = Entry - (ATR × multiplier)
+Short stop = Entry + (ATR × multiplier)
+where ATR = smoothed TR
+```
+
+### Position Sizing
+
+Use TR/ATR for volatility-adjusted position sizing:
+
+```
+Position size = (Account × Risk%) / (ATR × multiplier)
+```
+
+Higher TR means more volatility, so smaller position.
+
+### Breakout Detection
+
+Large TR spikes indicate significant price movement:
+
+```
+If TR_today > 2 × ATR_14: Potential breakout
+Monitor for continuation or reversal
+```
+
+### Volatility Filtering
+
+Filter trades based on minimum TR:
+
+```
+If TR < threshold: Skip trade (too quiet, potential whipsaw)
+If TR > threshold: Proceed (sufficient volatility for trend)
+```
+
+### Gap Analysis
+
+Compare TR to High-Low range to quantify gap impact:
+
+```
+Gap contribution = TR - (High - Low)
+If gap contribution > 50% of TR: Significant gap move
+```
+
+## Relationship to Other Indicators
+
+| Indicator | Relationship to TR |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| **ATR** | Smoothed TR (RMA/Wilder's MA) |
+| **NATR** | ATR / Close × 100 |
+| **ATRP** | ATR / Close × 100 (same as NATR) |
+| **Keltner Channel** | Uses ATR for band width |
+| **Chandelier Exit** | Uses ATR for trailing stop |
+| **SuperTrend** | Uses ATR for trend bands |
+| **ADX** | Uses TR in denominator for normalization |

+# UI: Ulcer Index
+
+> "The ulcer-inducing anxiety of watching your portfolio decline—now quantified."
+
+Ulcer Index (UI) is a downside volatility measure that quantifies the depth and duration of drawdowns from recent highs. Developed by Peter G. Martin in 1987, UI captures what most volatility measures miss: the pain of being underwater. Unlike standard deviation or ATR that treat upside and downside moves equally, UI measures only the decline from peaks—the psychological stress that keeps investors awake at night.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+Peter G. Martin introduced the Ulcer Index in 1987, with the full methodology published in his 1989 book "The Investor's Guide to Fidelity Funds" co-authored with Byron McCann. The name comes from the stress-induced ulcers that investors might develop watching their portfolios decline.
+
+Martin developed UI as a risk metric specifically for evaluating mutual fund performance. He recognized that traditional volatility measures (like standard deviation) penalize upside volatility equally with downside—but investors don't mind upside "volatility." The problem is drawdowns: how far below the recent high, and for how long.
+
+The Ulcer Index became the denominator for the Martin Ratio (also called the Ulcer Performance Index or UPI), a risk-adjusted return measure analogous to the Sharpe Ratio but using UI instead of standard deviation:
+
+$$
+\text{Martin Ratio} = \frac{R - R_f}{UI}
+$$
+
+This makes UI particularly valuable for comparing investments: lower UI means less "ulcer-inducing" drawdowns.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+### 1. Rolling Maximum (Highest Close)
+
+Track the highest closing price over the lookback period:
+
+$$
+H_t = \max(C_{t}, C_{t-1}, \ldots, C_{t-n+1})
+$$
+
+where:
+
+- $C_t$ = Close price at time $t$
+- $n$ = Period (default 14)
+
+### 2. Percent Drawdown
+
+Calculate how far price has fallen from the rolling high:
+
+$$
+D_t = \frac{C_t - H_t}{H_t} \times 100
+$$
+
+Note: $D_t \leq 0$ always (price cannot exceed its own maximum).
+
+For computation, we use the absolute percentage:
+
+$$
+|D_t| = \left|\frac{C_t - H_t}{H_t}\right| \times 100
+$$
+
+### 3. Squared Drawdown
+
+Square the drawdown to penalize larger declines more heavily:
+
+$$
+D_t^2 = \left(\frac{C_t - H_t}{H_t} \times 100\right)^2
+$$
+
+### 4. Average Squared Drawdown
+
+Calculate the mean of squared drawdowns over the period:
+
+$$
+\overline{D^2} = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=0}^{n-1} D_{t-i}^2
+$$
+
+### 5. Ulcer Index
+
+Take the square root (RMS - root mean square):
+
+$$
+UI_t = \sqrt{\overline{D^2}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=0}^{n-1} D_{t-i}^2}
+$$
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Why Squared Drawdowns?
+
+The squaring serves two purposes:
+
+1. **Eliminates sign**: All drawdowns become positive contributions
+2. **Penalizes large drawdowns**: A 20% drawdown contributes 400 to the sum; a 10% drawdown contributes only 100
+
+This quadratic penalty means UI is highly sensitive to severe drawdowns—exactly what investors fear most.
+
+### RMS Interpretation
+
+The square root at the end returns UI to the same units as the input (percentage). UI can be interpreted as the "typical" percentage drawdown, weighted toward larger declines.
+
+### Example Calculation
+
+Consider a 5-period example:
+
+| Day | Close | Rolling High | Drawdown (%) | Drawdown² |
+| :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| 1 | 100 | 100 | 0 | 0 |
+| 2 | 98 | 100 | -2 | 4 |
+| 3 | 95 | 100 | -5 | 25 |
+| 4 | 97 | 100 | -3 | 9 |
+| 5 | 99 | 100 | -1 | 1 |
+
+$$
+UI = \sqrt{\frac{0 + 4 + 25 + 9 + 1}{5}} = \sqrt{7.8} \approx 2.79
+$$
+
+### Properties
+
+1. **Non-negativity**: $UI_t \geq 0$ always
+2. **Zero at peak**: When $C_t = H_t$, drawdown is 0
+3. **Units**: Percentage (same as input drawdown)
+4. **Asymmetric**: Only measures downside (drawdown), ignores upside
+5. **Trend-sensitive**: Prolonged declines accumulate higher UI
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
+
+Per-bar operations:
+
+| Operation | Count | Cost (cycles) | Subtotal |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| MAX scan (period elements) | n | 1 | n |
+| SUB | 2 | 1 | 2 |
+| DIV | 2 | 15 | 30 |
+| MUL | 2 | 3 | 6 |
+| SQRT | 1 | 15 | 15 |
+| Ring buffer ops | 2 | 2 | 4 |
+| **Total** | — | — | **~57 + n cycles** |
+
+The MAX scan dominates for larger periods. For period=14, approximately 71 cycles per bar.
+
+### Batch Mode (512 values, SIMD/FMA)
+
+| Operation | Scalar Ops | SIMD Ops (AVX2) | Speedup |
+| :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: |
+| Rolling max | Complex | Limited | ~2-4× |
+| Arithmetic | 4096 | 512 | 8× |
+| SQRT | 512 | 64 | 8× |
+
+Rolling maximum has limited SIMD benefit due to sequential dependency, but arithmetic operations vectorize well.
+
+### Memory Profile
+
+- **Per instance:** ~144 bytes (state + two ring buffers of size period)
+- **Backup arrays:** 2 × period × 8 bytes (for bar correction)
+- **Period 14:** ~368 bytes per instance
+- **100 instances:** ~36 KB
+
+### Quality Metrics
+
+| Metric | Score | Notes |
+| :--- | :---: | :--- |
+| **Accuracy** | 10/10 | Exact calculation, matches reference |
+| **Timeliness** | 7/10 | Period-based lag |
+| **Smoothness** | 7/10 | RMS smoothing, but can change quickly |
+| **Interpretability** | 9/10 | Clear meaning: typical drawdown % |
+| **Risk Assessment** | 10/10 | Excellent downside risk measure |

+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Warmup period**: UI requires a full period of data before producing valid results. During warmup, values represent partial-period calculations that may underestimate true UI.
+
+2. **Zero interpretation**: UI=0 means price is at or above the period high—no drawdown. This doesn't mean low risk; the market might be at a blow-off top.
+
+3. **Period selection**: Shorter periods (7-14) react quickly to recent drawdowns but may miss longer declines. Longer periods (21-50) capture extended bear markets but lag on recovery.
+
+4. **Comparison across assets**: UI is percentage-based, so it's comparable across different-priced assets (unlike raw TR or ATR).
+
+5. **Trend bias**: In strong uptrends, UI approaches zero (constantly at new highs). This might mask lurking risk when the trend eventually breaks.
+
+6. **Not a timing indicator**: UI measures risk, not direction. High UI during a decline doesn't predict reversal—it just confirms you're underwater.
+
+## Trading Applications
+
+### Risk-Adjusted Performance (Martin Ratio)
+
+Compare investments using the Martin Ratio:
+
+$$
+\text{Martin Ratio} = \frac{\text{Annualized Return} - R_f}{UI}
+$$
+
+Higher Martin Ratio = better risk-adjusted returns (more return per unit of "ulcer").
+
+### Portfolio Selection
+
+Filter investments by maximum acceptable UI:
+
+```
+If UI > 15: Too volatile for conservative portfolios
+If UI < 5: Suitable for risk-averse investors
+```
+
+### Position Sizing
+
+Adjust position size based on UI:
+
+```
+Position size = Base size × (Target UI / Actual UI)
+```
+
+Higher UI assets get smaller allocations.
+
+### Drawdown Monitoring
+
+Track UI in real-time to monitor portfolio stress:
+
+```
+If UI crosses above threshold: Consider hedging or reducing exposure
+If UI declining from high: Recovery underway
+```
+
+### Strategy Evaluation
+
+Compare trading strategies by UI:
+
+```
+Strategy A: Return 15%, UI 8 → Martin Ratio = 1.88
+Strategy B: Return 12%, UI 4 → Martin Ratio = 3.00
+Strategy B is better risk-adjusted despite lower returns
+```
+
+## Relationship to Other Indicators
+
+| Indicator | Relationship to UI |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| **Standard Deviation** | UI measures only downside; StdDev measures both directions |
+| **ATR** | ATR is range-based; UI is drawdown-based |
+| **Maximum Drawdown** | MDD is the worst single drawdown; UI averages all drawdowns |
+| **Sharpe Ratio** | Uses StdDev; Martin Ratio uses UI |
+| **Sortino Ratio** | Uses downside deviation; similar philosophy to UI |
+| **Calmar Ratio** | Uses max drawdown; UI uses average drawdown |

+# VOV: Volatility of Volatility
+
+> "When markets become uncertain about their own uncertainty, that's when things get interesting."
+
+Volatility of Volatility (VOV) measures the standard deviation of volatility itself, quantifying how much volatility fluctuates over time. While standard volatility tells you how much prices move, VOV tells you how stable or unstable that movement pattern is. High VOV indicates volatility is erratic and unpredictable; low VOV suggests volatility is relatively stable and consistent.
+
+## Historical Context
+
+The concept of "vol of vol" emerged from options pricing and derivatives trading, where understanding the stability of volatility became crucial for pricing exotic options and managing portfolio risk. The Heston stochastic volatility model (1993) introduced a dedicated parameter (σ, often called "vol of vol") to capture this phenomenon, recognizing that volatility itself follows a random process.
+
+In practice, traders noticed that implied volatility surfaces exhibit their own dynamics—sometimes stable, sometimes wildly fluctuating. The 2008 financial crisis and subsequent "flash crashes" demonstrated that periods of extreme VOV correlate with market stress and liquidity crises. When volatility becomes volatile, hedging becomes difficult and option pricing models break down.
+
+This implementation uses a straightforward approach: compute rolling standard deviation (inner volatility), then compute the standard deviation of those values (outer VOV). Simple, interpretable, and effective for detecting volatility regime changes.
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+### 1. Inner Volatility Calculation
+
+For each bar, compute the population standard deviation of prices over the volatility period:
+
+$$
+\sigma_{t}^{inner} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(P_{t-i} - \bar{P})^2}
+$$
+
+where:
+
+- $P_t$ = Price (close) at time $t$
+- $n$ = Volatility period (default 20)
+- $\bar{P}$ = Mean price over the window
+
+Using the computationally efficient form:
+
+$$
+\sigma = \sqrt{E[X^2] - E[X]^2} = \sqrt{\frac{\sum x^2}{n} - \left(\frac{\sum x}{n}\right)^2}
+$$
+
+### 2. Outer VOV Calculation
+
+Apply the same standard deviation formula to the series of inner volatilities:
+
+$$
+VOV_t = \sqrt{\frac{1}{m}\sum_{j=0}^{m-1}(\sigma_{t-j}^{inner} - \bar{\sigma})^2}
+$$
+
+where:
+
+- $\sigma^{inner}$ = Inner volatility values
+- $m$ = VOV period (default 10)
+- $\bar{\sigma}$ = Mean of inner volatilities over the window
+
+### 3. Population vs Sample Standard Deviation
+
+This implementation uses **population** standard deviation (dividing by $n$, not $n-1$). For rolling window calculations with consistent period sizes, population stddev is appropriate and avoids the Bessel's correction bias that's designed for estimating population parameters from small samples.
+
+## Mathematical Foundation
+
+### Nested Standard Deviation
+
+The core formula is simply:
+
+$$
+VOV = StdDev(StdDev(Price, volatilityPeriod), vovPeriod)
+$$
+
+### Efficient Streaming Computation
+
+For O(1) updates, maintain running sums:
+
+**Inner volatility buffer:**
+- `priceSum` = $\sum P_i$
+- `priceSumSq` = $\sum P_i^2$
+
+**Outer VOV buffer:**
+- `volSum` = $\sum \sigma_i$
+- `volSumSq` = $\sum \sigma_i^2$
+
+Update formulas when adding new value $x$ and removing old value $x_{old}$:
+
+$$
+sum_{new} = sum_{old} + x - x_{old}
+$$
+
+$$
+sumSq_{new} = sumSq_{old} + x^2 - x_{old}^2
+$$
+
+### Example Calculation
+
+Consider volatilityPeriod=2, vovPeriod=2, prices: [100, 102, 98, 104]
+
+**Inner stddevs:**
+- Bar 1: StdDev([100, 102]) = $\sqrt{(10202) - (101)^2}$ = $\sqrt{1}$ = 1
+- Bar 2: StdDev([102, 98]) = $\sqrt{(10004) - (100)^2}$ = $\sqrt{4}$ = 2
+- Bar 3: StdDev([98, 104]) = $\sqrt{(10210) - (101)^2}$ = $\sqrt{9}$ = 3
+
+**Outer VOV:**
+- Bar 2: StdDev([1, 2]) = $\sqrt{(2.5) - (1.5)^2}$ = $\sqrt{0.25}$ = 0.5
+- Bar 3: StdDev([2, 3]) = $\sqrt{(6.5) - (2.5)^2}$ = $\sqrt{0.25}$ = 0.5
+
+### Properties
+
+1. **Non-negativity**: VOV ≥ 0 always (standard deviation is non-negative)
+2. **Zero when constant**: If volatility doesn't change, VOV = 0
+3. **Scale independence**: VOV is in the same units as volatility (price units)
+4. **Warmup requirement**: Needs (volatilityPeriod + vovPeriod - 1) bars before valid output

+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Warmup period confusion**: VOV requires (volatilityPeriod + vovPeriod - 1) bars before producing valid output. Default (20, 10) needs 29 bars. Early values during warmup may be misleading.
+
+2. **Interpretation**: Low VOV doesn't mean low volatility—it means volatility is *stable* (could be stably high). High VOV means volatility is unpredictable, regardless of its absolute level.
+
+3. **Parameter selection**: 
+   - Shorter volatilityPeriod captures faster price dynamics but noisier inner vol
+   - Shorter vovPeriod reacts faster to vol changes but noisier VOV
+   - Common defaults: (20, 10) for daily data, (60, 20) for intraday
+
+4. **Scale awareness**: VOV is in price units (like standard deviation). A VOV of 0.5 on a $100 stock is very different from VOV of 0.5 on a $10 stock. Consider normalizing by price or using percentage returns.
+
+5. **Regime lag**: Due to the nested calculation, VOV inherently lags regime changes. By the time VOV spikes, the volatility shift has already begun.
+
+6. **Memory footprint**: With two ring buffers plus backup arrays, VOV uses more memory than simpler indicators. For many simultaneous instances, consider the cumulative impact.
+
+## Trading Applications
+
+### Volatility Regime Detection
+
+Track VOV to identify when volatility is transitioning:
+
+```
+If VOV rising from low base: Volatility regime change underway
+If VOV falling toward zero: Volatility stabilizing
+If VOV persistently high: Unstable market conditions
+```
+
+### Options Trading
+
+VOV correlates with the value of volatility derivatives:
+
+```
+High VOV: Straddles/strangles more valuable (vol could move either way)
+Low VOV: Stable vol environment, directional bets may be safer
+```
+
+### Position Sizing
+
+Adjust exposure based on volatility predictability:
+
+```
+Position size = Base size × (Target VOV / Actual VOV)
+Higher VOV → smaller positions (unpredictable conditions)
+```
+
+### Risk Management
+
+Use VOV as an early warning signal:
+
+```
+If VOV > 2 × average: Consider hedging
+If VOV crosses threshold: Reduce leverage
+```
+
+### Mean Reversion Strategies
+
+Volatility tends to mean-revert; VOV helps time entries:
+
+```
+High VOV + High Vol: Wait for VOV to decline before selling vol
+Low VOV + Low Vol: Vol likely to rise; prepare for expansion
+```
+
+## Relationship to Other Indicators
+
+| Indicator | Relationship to VOV |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| **ATR** | ATR is level; VOV measures ATR stability |
+| **Bollinger Bandwidth** | Bandwidth measures vol level; VOV measures bandwidth stability |
+| **VIX/VVIX** | VVIX is the market's implied VOV; this is realized VOV |
+| **Heston σ** | Heston vol-of-vol parameter; VOV is the realized equivalent |
+| **RVI** | RVI measures vol direction; VOV measures vol instability |
+| **Standard Deviation** | VOV is StdDev of StdDev |
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+### State Management
+
+The indicator maintains four running sums (price sum, price sum-squared, vol sum, vol sum-squared) plus two ring buffers. For bar correction (isNew=false), backup arrays store previous buffer states.
+
+### NaN/Infinity Handling
+
+Invalid inputs are replaced with the last valid price to prevent corruption of running sums. This ensures continuous operation even with data gaps.
+
+### Numerical Stability
+
+The formula $\sqrt{E[X^2] - E[X]^2}$ can produce small negative values due to floating-point errors when variance is near zero. The implementation guards against this by returning 0 when the computed variance is negative.
