kingchenc c212f91256 docs(examples): add 3 end-to-end strategy examples (Rust + Python) (#65)
Wires real indicators into complete signal -> fill -> PnL -> equity
loops over the checked-in BTCUSDT datasets, with per-trade Sharpe and
max-drawdown reported on stdout. Closes the gap where existing
examples showed only the mechanics of calling `update`/`batch` but not
how Wickra plugs into a trading-system shape.

Three strategies, each in Rust + Python (six files total):

- strategy_rsi_mean_reversion — RSI(14) thresholds (30/70) on 1h
  BTCUSDT. Binary position, 0.1% per-trade fee.
- strategy_macd_adx — MACD crossover entries gated by ADX(14) > 20 on
  1h BTCUSDT. Trend-follower demo of multi-indicator gating.
- strategy_bollinger_squeeze — Bollinger-bandwidth 180-day-low squeeze
  + upper-band breakout entry, ATR(14) * 2 stop. On 1d BTCUSDT for
  interpretable lookback.

Each file is self-contained — print_summary is inlined per script so
the example stays a single-file read. Every script prints a
NOT-financial-advice notice next to its results.

examples/README.md updated to list the new bins/scripts.

//! Strategy example: Bollinger-Squeeze breakout with ATR-based stop.
//!
//! Enters long when the Bollinger Bandwidth has just printed a fresh
//! 6-month low (the *squeeze*) and price closes above the upper band
//! (the *release*). Exits when price closes below the entry minus 2 *
//! ATR(14), or when the upper band starts trailing below the entry
//! price (the squeeze pattern has played out). 0.1% fees per trade.
//!
//! Educational example. **Not** a live trading recommendation.
//!
//! Build with:
//! ```text
//! cargo run --release -p wickra-examples --bin strategy_bollinger_squeeze
//! ```
//!
//! Uses the checked-in `examples/data/btcusdt-1d.csv` dataset because
//! daily bars give an interpretable "6-month low" lookback (≈180 bars).
