+/// <summary>
+/// CVI: Chaikin's Volatility
+/// A technical indicator developed by Marc Chaikin that measures the volatility of a financial instrument by comparing the spread between the high and low prices.
+/// </summary>
+/// <remarks>
+/// The CVI calculation process:
+/// 1. Calculates the difference between the high and low prices.
+/// 2. Applies an exponential moving average (EMA) to the differences.
+/// 3. Computes the percentage change in the EMA over a specified period.
+///
+/// Key characteristics:
+/// - Measures volatility
+/// - Uses high and low prices
+/// - Percentage-based
+/// - EMA smoothing
+///
+/// Formula:
+/// CVI = (EMA(high - low, period) - EMA(high - low, period, offset)) / EMA(high - low, period, offset) * 100
+///
+/// Market Applications:
+/// - Volatility assessment
+/// - Trend confirmation
+/// - Risk management
+/// - Entry/exit timing
+///
+/// Sources:
+///     Marc Chaikin - Original development
+///     https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/chaikins-volatility.asp
+///
+/// Note: Higher CVI values indicate higher volatility
+/// </remarks>
