The final batch of the TA-Lib candlestick roadmap. Adds five patterns, each a streaming `Indicator<Input = Candle, Output = f64>` emitting the family's uniform `±1.0 / 0.0` sign convention, fully wired across the Rust core, Python / Node / WASM bindings, fuzz target and reference tests.
- **Tasuki Gap** (`CDLTASUKIGAP`) — a 3-bar continuation: two same-coloured candles gap in the trend direction, then an opposite candle opens within the second body and closes back into the gap without filling it; upside +1, downside -1.
- **Unique Three River** (`CDLUNIQUE3RIVER`) — a 3-bar bullish reversal: a long black candle, a black candle probing a new low with its body inside the first, then a small white candle held below it; bullish +1.
- **Closing Marubozu** (`CDLCLOSINGMARUBOZU`) — a single long-bodied candle with no shadow on the close end; +1 (white, closes at the high) or -1 (black, closes at the low).
- **Opening Marubozu** — a single long-bodied candle with no shadow on the open end; +1 (white, opens at the low) or -1 (black, opens at the high). No direct TA-Lib equivalent — completes the pair with the closing marubozu.
- **Concealing Baby Swallow** (`CDLCONCEALBABYSWALL`) — a rare 4-bar bullish capitulation: two black marubozu, a black candle gapping down with an upper shadow into the second, then a large black candle engulfing it entirely; bullish +1.
Body and shadow thresholds follow the geometric house style (fixed fractions of the bar range) rather than TA-Lib's rolling averages.
Counter 284 → 289 (mod-count == lib counted block; FAMILIES total 279 → 284).
Stacked on #140 (`feat/cdl-gap-methods`); base retargets to `main` as the stack merges down.
Adds five TA-Lib candlestick patterns, each a streaming `Indicator<Input = Candle, Output = f64>` emitting the family's uniform `±1.0 / 0.0` sign convention, fully wired across the Rust core, Python / Node / WASM bindings, fuzz target and reference tests.
- **Upside Gap Three Methods** (`CDLXSIDEGAP3METHODS`) — a 3-bar bullish continuation: two white candles gap up, then a black candle opens within the second body and closes within the first; bullish +1.
- **Downside Gap Three Methods** (`CDLXSIDEGAP3METHODS`) — the bearish mirror: two black candles gap down, then a white candle opens within the second body and closes within the first; bearish -1.
- **Stalled Pattern** (`CDLSTALLEDPATTERN`) — a 3-bar bearish reversal warning: two long white candles then a small white candle riding the shoulder, signalling the rally is stalling; bearish -1.
- **Stick Sandwich** (`CDLSTICKSANDWICH`) — a 3-bar bullish reversal: two black candles closing at the same level sandwich a white candle, marking a support floor; bullish +1.
- **Takuri** (`CDLTAKURI`) — a single-bar bullish reversal, a strict Dragonfly Doji with a negligible upper shadow and very long lower shadow; bullish +1.
Body and shadow thresholds follow the geometric house style (fixed fractions of the bar range) rather than TA-Lib's rolling averages. Upside / Downside Gap Three Methods share the `CDLXSIDEGAP3METHODS` code, so the second carries a manual CHANGELOG entry (as with Rising / Falling Three Methods).
Counter 279 → 284 (mod-count == lib counted block; FAMILIES total 274 → 279).
Stacked on #139 (`feat/cdl-lines`); base retargets to `main` once the predecessor merges.
Adds five TA-Lib candlestick patterns, all `Input = Candle`, `Output = f64`
(`+1.0` bullish / `-1.0` bearish / `0.0` no pattern), wired across core,
Python/Node/WASM bindings, fuzz, and tests.
- **Matching Low** (`CDLMATCHINGLOW`) — 2-bar bullish reversal: two black candles in a decline share the same close, signalling selling pressure is exhausting; bullish +1.
- **Long Line** (`CDLLONGLINE`) — a candle whose range beats a rolling average of recent ranges with a body-dominated range; bullish +1 (white) / bearish -1 (black).
- **Short Line** (`CDLSHORTLINE`) — a compact candle whose range falls below the rolling average with a body-dominated range; bullish +1 (white) / bearish -1 (black).
- **Rising Three Methods** (`CDLRISEFALL3METHODS`) — 5-bar bullish continuation: a long white candle, three small bars holding within its range, then a white breakout to new highs; bullish +1.
- **Falling Three Methods** (`CDLRISEFALL3METHODS`) — the bearish mirror: a long black candle, three small bars within its range, then a black breakdown to new lows; bearish -1.
Counter 274 → 279 (mod-count == lib counted block; FAMILIES total 269 → 274).
Stacked on #138 (part 6 of 9); base retargets to `main` as the chain merges.
* feat: add hikkake-modified, homing-pigeon and neck-line candlestick patterns
Five patterns, all `Input = Candle`, `Output = f64`:
- Modified Hikkake (CDLHIKKAKEMOD) — a close-confirmed Hikkake: an inside bar
then a breakout that closes back inside the inside-bar range; bullish +1,
bearish -1.
- Homing Pigeon (CDLHOMINGPIGEON) — two black candles, the second a small body
inside the first, a bullish reversal; +1.
- On-Neck (CDLONNECK) — long black bar then a white bar closing at its low (the
neckline), a bearish continuation; -1.
- In-Neck (CDLINNECK) — long black bar then a white bar closing just into its
body, a bearish continuation; -1.
- Thrusting (CDLTHRUSTING) — long black bar then a white bar closing well into
but below the midpoint of its body, a bearish continuation; -1.
Counter 264 -> 269 (mod-count == lib counted block; FAMILIES total 259 -> 264).

* feat: add doji-star, gap, high-wave and hikkake candlestick patterns
Five patterns, all `Input = Candle`, `Output = f64`:
- Evening Doji Star (CDLEVENINGDOJISTAR) — bearish top reversal: long white bar,
a doji gapping up, then a black bar closing deep into the first body; -1
(penetration configurable, default 0.3).
- Morning Doji Star (CDLMORNINGDOJISTAR) — bullish bottom reversal mirror; +1.
- Gap Side-by-Side White (CDLGAPSIDESIDEWHITE) — two similar white candles
opening side by side after a gap, a continuation; gap up +1, gap down -1.
- High-Wave (CDLHIGHWAVE) — a small body with very long shadows on both sides,
an extreme indecision flag; +1 on detection.
- Hikkake (CDLHIKKAKE) — an inside bar followed by a failed breakout (a trap);
bullish +1, bearish -1.
Counter 259 -> 264 (mod-count == lib counted block; FAMILIES total 254 -> 259).

* feat: add Doji-family candlestick patterns
Five single-/two-bar Doji patterns, all `Input = Candle`, `Output = f64`:
- Doji Star (CDLDOJISTAR) — a long body followed by a doji gapping away in the
trend direction; bullish +1 (after a black bar), bearish -1 (after a white bar).
- Dragonfly Doji (CDLDRAGONFLYDOJI) — a doji opening and closing at the high with
a long lower shadow; bullish +1.
- Gravestone Doji (CDLGRAVESTONEDOJI) — a doji opening and closing at the low with
a long upper shadow; bearish -1.
- Long-Legged Doji (CDLLONGLEGGEDDOJI) — a doji with long shadows on both sides; a
non-directional indecision flag, +1 on detection.
- Rickshaw Man (CDLRICKSHAWMAN) — a long-legged doji with the body centred in the
range; a non-directional indecision flag, +1 on detection.
Counter 254 -> 259 (mod-count == lib counted block; FAMILIES total 249 -> 254).

* feat: add Abandoned Baby candlestick pattern (CDLABANDONEDBABY)
* feat: add Advance Block candlestick pattern (CDLADVANCEBLOCK)
* feat: add Belt Hold candlestick pattern (CDLBELTHOLD)
* feat: add Breakaway and Counterattack candlestick patterns (CDLBREAKAWAY, CDLCOUNTERATTACK)
Breakaway is a 5-bar reversal: a trend gaps away on the second bar, drifts
two more bars, then the fifth bar snaps back and closes inside the bar1/bar2
body gap (bullish +1, bearish -1). Counterattack is a 2-bar reversal where an
opposite-coloured long second bar closes level with the first (the counterattack
line; bullish +1, bearish -1).
Also suppress libtest's spanless `large_stack_arrays` false positive in
wickra-core test builds: the `#[test]` harness collects every test into a
compiler-generated array of references that crosses clippy's 16 KB threshold
once the suite passes ~2048 unit tests. The allow is scoped to `cfg(test)`, so
library code is still linted for genuinely large stack arrays.

* feat: add Two Crows candlestick pattern (CDL2CROWS)
* feat: add Upside Gap Two Crows candlestick pattern (CDLUPSIDEGAP2CROWS)
* feat: add Identical Three Crows candlestick pattern (CDLIDENTICAL3CROWS)
* feat: add Three Line Strike candlestick pattern (CDL3LINESTRIKE)
* feat: add Three Stars in the South candlestick pattern (CDL3STARSINSOUTH)
* feat(core): add 3 trade-flow microstructure indicators
SignedVolume (per-trade size signed by aggressor), CumulativeVolumeDelta
(running signed-volume total), and TradeImbalance (rolling buy/sell volume
imbalance over a trade window). All consume the Trade type, with full unit
coverage. Extends the Microstructure family.
* feat(bindings): expose trade-flow microstructure indicators
Python, Node and WASM bindings for SignedVolume, CumulativeVolumeDelta and
TradeImbalance. Each takes a trade via update(price, size, is_buy); Python and
Node expose a batch over three parallel arrays, WASM exposes per-trade update.
Regenerates node index.d.ts/.js.
* test(bindings,fuzz,bench): cover trade-flow microstructure indicators
Python and Node: reference values, streaming-vs-batch, lifecycle/repr and input
validation (zero window, negative size, non-positive price, mismatched batch
lengths). New indicator_update_trade fuzz target. Synthetic trade-tape benches
(signed_volume cheapest, trade_imbalance windowed/expensive).
* docs: add trade-flow indicators + bump counter to 227
README Microstructure family row gains signed volume / CVD / trade imbalance and
the counter goes 224 -> 227; CHANGELOG records the trade-flow indicators.
* feat(core): add microstructure input types (OrderBook, Trade, TradeQuote)
New non-OHLCV value types for the order-book / trade-flow indicator family:
Level, OrderBook (sorted, uncrossed depth snapshot), Side, Trade (with
aggressor side), and TradeQuote (trade paired with prevailing mid). Each has a
validating constructor plus a new_unchecked hot-path constructor, with full
unit coverage. Adds InvalidOrderBook / InvalidTrade error variants.
* feat(core): add 5 order-book microstructure indicators
OrderBookImbalanceTop1/TopN/Full (signed depth imbalance), Microprice
(size-weighted fair value), and QuotedSpread (top-of-book spread in bps). All
consume the OrderBook snapshot type, emit f64, are stateless and ready after
the first snapshot, with full unit coverage. Registers a new Microstructure
family in the taxonomy.
* feat(bindings): expose order-book microstructure indicators
Python, Node, and WASM bindings for OrderBookImbalanceTop1/TopN/Full,
Microprice and QuotedSpread. Each takes a depth snapshot via four equal-length
(bid_px, bid_sz, ask_px, ask_sz) arrays. Python and Node expose a batch over a
list of snapshots; WASM exposes per-snapshot update (the streaming model that
fits a browser book feed). Regenerates node index.d.ts/.js and registers the
new InvalidOrderBook/InvalidTrade arms in the Python error mapping.
* test(bindings,fuzz): cover order-book microstructure indicators
Python: smoke, reference values, streaming-vs-batch, lifecycle/repr and input
validation (mismatched lengths, crossed book, misordered levels, zero levels)
for all five order-book indicators. Node: reference values, streaming-vs-batch,
and rejection cases. Adds an indicator_update_orderbook fuzz target driving
every order-book indicator over arbitrary (incl. degenerate) snapshots.
* bench(microstructure): synthetic order-book benchmarks
Add a bench_orderbook_input harness and synthesise a five-level book around
each candle close (no order-book dataset ships with the repo). Benches the
cheapest (top-of-book imbalance) and most-expensive (full-depth imbalance) plus
microprice, matching the curated cheapest/expensive-per-family approach.
* docs: add Microstructure family + bump indicator counter to 224
README gains the Microstructure family row (order-book imbalance, microprice,
quoted spread) and the indicator counter goes 219 -> 224 across seventeen
families; CHANGELOG records the new order-book indicators and value types.
* feat(core): add signed dragonfly/gravestone encoding to Doji
Doji gains an opt-in `.signed()` mode that classifies a detected Doji by the
position of its body within the bar range: dragonfly (long lower shadow) emits
+1.0 (bullish), gravestone (long upper shadow) emits -1.0 (bearish), and a
long-legged/standard Doji emits 0.0. The default detection-flag behaviour
(+1.0/0.0) is unchanged, so existing callers are unaffected.
The other 14 candlestick patterns already emit the uniform +1 bull / -1 bear /
0 none convention; document that explicitly with a "Signed +-1 encoding"
section on each so the whole family is a consistent drop-in ML feature.
* feat(bindings): expose Doji signed mode in python, node, wasm
Hand-write the Doji binding in all three language bindings (instead of the
shared candle-pattern macro) so it accepts an opt-in `signed` flag and exposes
an `is_signed`/`isSigned` accessor:
- Python: `Doji(signed=False)` keyword argument
- Node: `new Doji(signed?)` optional constructor argument (index.d.ts/.js
regenerated via napi build)
- WASM: `new Doji(signed?)` optional constructor argument
The default construction is unchanged, so existing callers keep the
direction-less +1/0 detection flag.
* test(bindings,fuzz): cover Doji signed dragonfly/gravestone encoding
- python: dragonfly(+1)/gravestone(-1)/neutral(0) and default-flag cases in
test_known_values
- node: equivalent signed/default assertions in indicators.test.js
- fuzz: drive a signed Doji alongside the default in indicator_update_candle
* docs: document signed candlestick convention and Doji signed mode
README gains a candlestick sign-convention note; CHANGELOG records the new
opt-in Doji signed dragonfly/gravestone encoding under [Unreleased].
* feat(core): add PairwiseBeta cross-asset indicator
Rolling OLS slope of one asset's log-returns on another's. Unlike Beta,
which regresses the raw inputs it is fed, PairwiseBeta differences
consecutive prices into log-returns internally -- the conventional way to
measure cross-asset beta, where a beta on price levels would be dominated
by the shared trend.
Two-series Indicator<Input = (f64, f64)>, exposed in Rust, Python, Node
and WASM, with unit/known-value/streaming tests and a pair fuzz target.
* feat(core): add PairSpreadZScore cross-asset indicator
Standardised log-spread ln(a) - beta*ln(b) of a pair, where beta is a
rolling-OLS hedge ratio and the spread is z-scored over its own look-back.
The canonical mean-reversion / statistical-arbitrage entry signal, with
independent beta_period and z_period windows.
Two-series Indicator<Input = (f64, f64)>, exposed in Rust, Python, Node
and WASM, with sign/known-value/streaming tests and a pair fuzz target.
* feat(core): add LeadLagCrossCorrelation cross-asset indicator
Reports the integer offset k in [-max_lag, max_lag] that maximises
|corr(a[t], b[t+k])|, answering which of two assets leads the other and by
how many bars. A positive lag means a leads b. Fully causal: a's window is
held centred while b's window slides across the buffered history, so every
lag is evaluated only against data already seen.
Struct output { lag, correlation }, exposed in Rust, Python, Node and WASM
with lead-detection/streaming tests and a pair fuzz driver.
* feat(core): add Cointegration (Engle-Granger + ADF) indicator
Rolling pairs-trading screen: an OLS hedge ratio of a on b, the spread
(residual) a - (alpha + beta*b), and an augmented Dickey-Fuller t-statistic
on the spread with configurable lags. A strongly negative statistic flags a
mean-reverting, tradeable spread. Includes a small Gaussian-elimination
solver for the augmented regression.
Struct output { hedge_ratio, spread, adf_stat }, exposed in Rust, Python,
Node and WASM with stationarity/hedge-ratio/streaming tests and a pair fuzz
driver.
* feat(core): add RelativeStrengthAB cross-asset indicator
Comparative relative strength of two assets: the ratio line a/b together
with its moving average and its RSI, the classic asset-vs-asset /
asset-vs-index rotation screen. Composes the existing Sma and Rsi over the
ratio; a zero denominator or non-finite price is skipped.
Struct output { ratio, ratio_ma, ratio_rsi }, exposed in Rust, Python, Node
and WASM with flat/rising-ratio/streaming tests and a pair fuzz driver.
* test(cointegration): cover ADF guard branches
The ADF helper's short-series and degrees-of-freedom guards and the
zero-dispersion (perfect AR) path are unreachable through the public
Cointegration API (period >= 2*adf_lags + 4), so exercise them with direct
unit tests on adf_no_constant. The second linear solve cannot be singular
once the coefficient solve on the same matrix has succeeded, so it now uses
expect() instead of a dead error branch.
* build(node): track the generated index.d.ts (P5.1)
index.js was committed but index.d.ts was gitignored, an inconsistency that
also contradicts CONTRIBUTING ('regenerate both .d.ts/.js when a binding API
changes'). Track index.d.ts too so the repo carries the TypeScript types as a
matched pair with index.js. Generated by napi build; ~214 indicator classes.
* fix(node): reject invalid periods instead of clamping them (P5.4)
The Node scalar-indicator macro clamped period 0 to 1 (via clamp_period + must)
and the multi-parameter constructors did the same, silently swallowing the
core's PeriodZero validation. The core rejects period 0 (Error::PeriodZero),
and the Python and WASM bindings already propagate it — Node was the outlier,
masking caller mistakes. Make the macro constructor fallible and let every
constructor propagate the core error via map_err, removing clamp_period/must.
Update the smoke test (period 0 now throws, matching core/Python/WASM).
* docs(changelog): note the Node period-validation change (P5.4)
Behavior change per CONTRIBUTING: Node constructors now reject invalid periods
instead of clamping. Add an [Unreleased] Changed entry.
* chore: drop accidentally committed scratch log
