Comprehensive refactor across all indicators replacing the periodic
ResyncInterval-based drift correction (every 1000 ticks recalculate
from scratch) with Kahan compensated summation for running sums.
Key changes:
- Remove ResyncInterval constants and TickCount fields from all State records
- Add Kahan compensation fields (SumComp, SumSqComp, etc.) to State records
- Replace naive sum += val - removed with Kahan delta pattern
- Remove Resync()/RecalculateSum() methods that did O(N) recalculation
- Update batch/SIMD paths to use Kahan compensation instead of resync loops
- IIR filters (EMA, REMA, RGMA) simplified: inherently self-correcting
- Version bump to 0.8.7
- Build system: README version stamping via Directory.Build.props
- Minor doc/test tolerance adjustments for new numerical characteristics
Affected modules: channels, core, cycles, dynamics, errors, momentum,
oscillators, statistics, trends_FIR, trends_IIR, volatility, volume
Complete thin Dx-composition wrapper indicators with full test coverage:
- PlusDi/MinusDi: Directional Indicator wrappers (DiPlus/DiMinus from Dx)
- PlusDm/MinusDm: Directional Movement wrappers (DmPlus/DmMinus from Dx)
- Individual validation tests per indicator directory (TALib, Skender, bounds)
- Combined unit tests (DiDm.Tests.cs) and validation tests (DiDm.Validation.Tests.cs)
- Quantower wrappers + tests for all 4 indicators
- PineScript v6 implementations with compensated RMA
- Normalized .md documentation for all indicators and categories
- 182 tests passing, 0 failures
- Add docs/license.md with Apache 2.0 rationale and patent protection analysis
- Add docs/python.md and docs/pinescript.md platform guides
- Expand README license section with disclosure and link to rationale
- Update docs/api.md and docs/architecture.md
- Update Python bindings: helpers, all indicator modules, pyproject.toml
- Add Python tests for Arrow and Polars integration
- Update TValue core type and documentation
- Add fix_length_to_period tooling script
- Introduced Massi validation tests to ensure mathematical properties hold for the Mass Index indicator.
- Added Va validation tests for Volume Accumulation, checking for finite outputs and correct accumulation behavior.
- Implemented Vf validation tests for Volume Force, verifying outputs for rising and falling prices, and ensuring batch and streaming results match.
- Created Vo validation tests for Volume Oscillator, confirming behavior with constant, increasing, and decreasing volumes.
- Developed Vroc validation tests for Volume Rate of Change, validating outputs for constant volume and changes in volume.
- Updated project file to include new momentum indicators (MACD and RSI) in the compilation.
- Implemented Prime method in Vel, Ao, Apo, Frama, Adl, Adosc, Aobv, Cmf, Efi, Eom, Iii, Kvo, Mfi, Nvi, Obv, Pvd, Pvi, Pvo, Pvr, Pvt, Tvi, Twap, Va, Vf, Vo, Vroc, Vwad, Vwap, and Vwma classes.
