F9: add Accumulation/Distribution Line and Volume-Price Trend

Completes the F9 family (Cumulative volume) end to end:

- Rust core: adl.rs (Accumulation/Distribution Line — cumulative
  range-weighted volume) and vpt.rs (Volume-Price Trend — cumulative
  volume scaled by percentage price change). Each with a full Indicator
  impl, runnable doctest and reference / cumulative-property / warmup /
  reset / batch==streaming tests.
- Python: PyAdl / PyVolumePriceTrend PyO3 classes + module registration
  + .pyi stubs (no parameters, like OBV/VWAP).
- Node: explicit AdlNode and VolumePriceTrendNode; index.d.ts and
  index.js updated.
- WASM: WasmAdl and WasmVolumePriceTrend.
- Wiki: Indicator-Adl.md and Indicator-VolumePriceTrend.md plus rows in
  Indicators-Overview.md and entries in Home.md.

cargo fmt + clippy (core/wickra/data/wasm/node) clean; 373 core tests,
25 data tests and 53 doctests green.

# ADL
> Accumulation/Distribution Line — a cumulative volume-flow line that
> weights each bar's volume by where its close fell within the range.
## Quick reference
| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| Family | Volume |
| Sub-category | Cumulative |
| Input type | `Candle` (uses `high`, `low`, `close`, `volume`) |
| Output type | `f64` |
| Output range | unbounded (drifts with cumulative volume) |
| Default parameters | none (no parameters) |
| Warmup period | `1` |
| Interpretation | Running buying/selling pressure; slope and divergence matter. |
## Formula
```
MFM_t = ((close low) (high close)) / (high low) (money-flow multiplier, 1..+1)
MFV_t = MFM_t · volume_t (money-flow volume)
ADL_t = ADL_{t1} + MFV_t
```
The money-flow multiplier asks *where in the bar's range did price
close?* A close on the high gives `+1` (full accumulation), on the low
`1` (full distribution), in the middle `0`. Scaling by volume and
running the cumulative total gives a line whose **slope** reflects
sustained buying or selling pressure. A bar with `high == low` carries no
positional information and contributes `0`.
## Parameters
`ADL` takes **no parameters**`Adl::new()` in Rust, `wickra.ADL()` in
Python, `new ta.ADL()` in Node.
## Inputs / Outputs
From `crates/wickra-core/src/indicators/adl.rs`:
```rust
impl Indicator for Adl {
type Input = Candle;
type Output = f64;
// update(&mut self, input: Candle) -> Option<f64>
}
```
`ADL` is a **candle-input** indicator: it reads `high`, `low`, `close` and
`volume`. In Python the streaming `update` accepts a 6-tuple or a dict;
the batch helper takes `high`, `low`, `close`, `volume` numpy arrays. Node
and WASM expose `update(high, low, close, volume)` and the matching
`batch`.
## Warmup
`Adl::new().warmup_period() == 1`. ADL is cumulative — it emits a value
from the very first candle.
## Edge cases
- **Zero-range bar.** A bar with `high == low` contributes `0` to the line
(`zero_range_bar_contributes_nothing` pins this).
- **Close at the high.** Every bar closing on its high has `MFM = +1`, so
ADL grows by exactly `volume` each bar
(`close_at_high_accumulates_full_volume` pins this).
- **Candle validation.** `Candle::new` rejects invalid bars upstream.
- **Reset.** `adl.reset()` returns the running total to `0`.
## Examples
### Rust
```rust
use wickra::{BatchExt, Candle, Indicator, Adl};
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let mut adl = Adl::new();
let out = adl.batch(&[
Candle::new(8.0, 10.0, 8.0, 10.0, 100.0, 0)?, // close at high
Candle::new(10.0, 12.0, 8.0, 9.0, 200.0, 1)?,
]);
println!("{:?}", out);
Ok(())
}
```
Output:
```
[Some(100.0), Some(0.0)]
```
Bar 1 closes at its high (`MFM = +1`), adding `+100`. Bar 2 has
`MFM = ((98)(129))/4 = 0.5`, adding `100`, so the line returns to
`0`. This matches the `reference_values` test in
`crates/wickra-core/src/indicators/adl.rs`.
### Python
```python
import numpy as np
import wickra as ta
adl = ta.ADL()
high = np.array([10.0, 12.0])
low = np.array([8.0, 8.0])
close = np.array([10.0, 9.0])
volume = np.array([100.0, 200.0])
print(adl.batch(high, low, close, volume))
```
Output:
```
[100. 0.]
```
### Node
```javascript
const ta = require('wickra');
const adl = new ta.ADL();
console.log(adl.batch([10, 12], [8, 8], [10, 9], [100, 200]));
```
Output:
```
[ 100, 0 ]
```
## Interpretation
`Adl` is read by slope and by divergence, never by absolute level (the
total drifts arbitrarily with cumulative volume). A rising ADL confirms
that an up-move is backed by accumulation; a *falling* ADL while price
rises is a bearish divergence — the rally is not being bought into.
[`ChaikinOscillator`](Indicator-ChaikinOscillator.md) is the standard way
to turn the ADL into a bounded, tradeable oscillator.
## Common pitfalls
- **Reading the absolute value.** Only the slope and divergences are
meaningful; the level depends on where you started the stream.
- **Feeding it scalar prices.** It needs the full OHLCV bar.

# VolumePriceTrend
> Volume-Price Trend (VPT) — a cumulative volume line where each bar's
> contribution is scaled by its percentage price change.
## Quick reference
| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| Family | Volume |
| Sub-category | Cumulative |
| Input type | `Candle` (uses `close`, `volume`) |
| Output type | `f64` |
| Output range | unbounded (drifts with cumulative volume) |
| Default parameters | none (no parameters) |
| Warmup period | `1` |
| Interpretation | Running volume flow; slope and divergence matter. |
## Formula
```
VPT_t = VPT_{t1} + volume_t · (close_t close_{t1}) / close_{t1}
```
VPT is a close relative of [`Obv`](Indicator-Obv.md). Where OBV adds the
*entire* bar volume on any up-close, VPT adds volume scaled by the **size**
of the move: a 2 % gain on a given volume moves the line twice as far as a
1 % gain on the same volume. That makes VPT more sensitive to the
conviction behind a move. The first bar establishes the baseline at `0`.
## Parameters
`VolumePriceTrend` takes **no parameters**`VolumePriceTrend::new()` in
Rust, `wickra.VolumePriceTrend()` in Python, `new ta.VolumePriceTrend()`
in Node.
## Inputs / Outputs
From `crates/wickra-core/src/indicators/vpt.rs`:
```rust
impl Indicator for VolumePriceTrend {
type Input = Candle;
type Output = f64;
// update(&mut self, input: Candle) -> Option<f64>
}
```
`VolumePriceTrend` is a **candle-input** indicator: it reads `close` and
`volume`. In Python the streaming `update` accepts a 6-tuple or a dict;
the batch helper takes `close` and `volume` numpy arrays. Node and WASM
expose `update(close, volume)` and `batch(close, volume)`.
## Warmup
`warmup_period() == 1`. VPT is cumulative — it emits the baseline `0` from
the first candle, then accumulates from the second onward.
## Edge cases
- **Constant close.** With no price change every bar contributes `0`, so
the line stays flat regardless of volume
(`constant_close_keeps_line_flat` pins this).
- **First bar.** The first candle has no previous close; VPT emits the
baseline `0.0` (`emits_from_first_candle_at_zero` pins this).
- **Zero previous close.** A percentage change against a `0.0` prior
close is undefined and is treated as `0`.
- **Candle validation.** `Candle::new` rejects invalid bars upstream.
- **Reset.** `vpt.reset()` returns the running total to `0`.
## Examples
### Rust
```rust
use wickra::{BatchExt, Candle, Indicator, VolumePriceTrend};
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let mut vpt = VolumePriceTrend::new();
// closes 10 -> 11 -> 9, volumes 100, 200, 300.
let out = vpt.batch(&[
Candle::new(10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 100.0, 0)?,
Candle::new(11.0, 11.0, 11.0, 11.0, 200.0, 1)?,
Candle::new(9.0, 9.0, 9.0, 9.0, 300.0, 2)?,
]);
println!("{:?}", out);
Ok(())
}
```
Output:
```
[Some(0.0), Some(20.0), Some(-34.54545454545455)]
```
Bar 1 is the baseline `0`. Bar 2 adds `200 · (1110)/10 = 20`. Bar 3 adds
`300 · (911)/11 = 600/11`, leaving `20 600/11 ≈ 34.545`. This matches
the `reference_values` test in `crates/wickra-core/src/indicators/vpt.rs`.
### Python
```python
import numpy as np
import wickra as ta
vpt = ta.VolumePriceTrend()
close = np.array([10.0, 11.0, 9.0])
volume = np.array([100.0, 200.0, 300.0])
print(vpt.batch(close, volume))
```
Output:
```
[ 0. 20. -34.54545455]
```
### Node
```javascript
const ta = require('wickra');
const vpt = new ta.VolumePriceTrend();
console.log(vpt.batch([10, 11, 9], [100, 200, 300]));
```
Output:
```
[ 0, 20, -34.54545454545455 ]
```
## Interpretation
`VolumePriceTrend` is read like OBV — by **slope** and by **divergence**,
never by absolute level. A VPT rising in step with price confirms the
trend is volume-supported; VPT flattening or falling while price climbs
is a bearish divergence warning that the move lacks participation. Versus
OBV, VPT gives proportionally more weight to large moves and less to a
string of tiny up-closes, so it tracks the *magnitude* of conviction, not
just its direction.
## Common pitfalls
- **Reading the absolute value.** Only slope and divergences carry
meaning; the level depends on the stream's start point.
- **Expecting OBV-identical behaviour.** VPT scales by percentage change,
so the two lines diverge — especially across large single-bar moves.
## References
The Volume-Price Trend (also "Price-Volume Trend") is a standard
cumulative volume study; the `volume · ROC` accumulation here matches the
common definition.
