kingchenc d2f99efd78 F13c: restructure the indicator catalogue into eight families 
The original taxonomy was four classical families plus a statistics group,
with the F1-F12 expansion slotted in as sub-categories. This regroups the
whole 71-indicator catalogue into eight top-level families, each with at
least five members:

  Moving Averages (12), Momentum Oscillators (13), Trend & Directional (9),
  Price Oscillators (5), Volatility & Bands (12), Trailing Stops (5),
  Volume (9), Price Statistics (7).

- Wiki: docs/wiki/indicators/ reorganised into eight family folders; all 71
  indicator pages moved with `git mv`. Every internal cross-link is
  normalised to `../<family>/Indicator-X.md`, each page's `Family` field is
  set to its new family, and two pre-existing `../Indicator-Chaining.md`
  links (should have been `../../`) are corrected. A link check confirms
  every relative wiki link resolves.
- Indicators-Overview.md fully rewritten around the eight families;
  Home.md indicator reference and the README family table follow suit.
- Warmup-Periods.md gains the eight F13 indicators; CHANGELOG records the
  46-indicator expansion (25 -> 71) and the eight-family taxonomy.
- Tests: Node indicators.test.js and Python test_new_indicators.py cover
  all eight new indicators (Node 91/91, Python 117/117 green).

cargo fmt + clippy (core/wickra/data/wasm/node) clean; 508 core tests,
25 data tests and 74 doctests green.

# Wickra
Wickra is a streaming-first technical-indicators library. Every indicator is
implemented in Rust as an O(1) state machine that consumes one input at a
time, and the same engine is exposed through ergonomic bindings for Python,
Node.js, WebAssembly, and Rust itself. The same `update` call you write inside
a live trading loop also drives the historical backtest of that same
strategy — there is no second code path that drifts behind the streaming one.
The project ships 71 indicators across eight families — moving averages,
momentum oscillators, trend & directional, price oscillators, volatility &
bands, trailing stops, volume, and price statistics — plus a small set of
supporting types (`Candle`, `Tick`, `Chain`). The Rust core forbids `unsafe`,
so every binding inherits a
memory-safe implementation. Install is one command on every supported
platform: `pip install wickra`, `cargo add wickra`, `npm install wickra` — no
system compilers, no C dependencies, no headers.
Wickra is licensed under the **PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0** license.
Personal projects, research, hobby trading bots, education, non-profits, and
government use are all permitted; commercial sale of the software or of
services built around it is not. If you want to use Wickra commercially,
open an issue on GitHub to discuss a separate license.

## Wiki contents
- [Quickstart: Python](Quickstart-Python.md) — `pip install wickra`, a batch
RSI on a NumPy array, a streaming RSI loop, and the multi-column NaN
pattern that MACD and friends share.
- [Quickstart: Rust](Quickstart-Rust.md) — `cargo add wickra`, batch and
streaming via the `Indicator` and `BatchExt` traits, and the `Chain`
combinator.
- [Quickstart: Node](Quickstart-Node.md) — `npm install wickra`, basic
`SMA` and `MACD` calls, and the current Windows install caveat
(`wickra-win32-x64-msvc@0.1.4` is held by the npm spam filter).
- [Quickstart: WASM](Quickstart-WASM.md) — `npm install wickra-wasm`,
building with `wasm-pack`, and running indicators client-side in a
browser or bundler.
- [Data Layer](Data-Layer.md) — the `wickra-data` crate: the CSV reader,
the tick-to-candle aggregator, the multi-timeframe resampler, and the
Binance live feed.
- [Streaming vs Batch](Streaming-vs-Batch.md) — the conceptual difference
between Wickra's O(1) `update` and the recompute-everything loops in
batch-only libraries, with the benchmark numbers from the project README.
- [Warmup Periods](Warmup-Periods.md) — a verified table of every
indicator's `warmup_period()`, plus the reasoning behind the off-by-one
cases (RSI(14) needs 15 inputs because it needs 14 diffs).
- [Indicator Chaining](Indicator-Chaining.md) — `Chain::new(first, second)`
and `.then(third)`, with a worked EMA(14) → RSI(7) example and the rule
for stacked warmups.
### Indicator reference
Start with [Indicators-Overview.md](Indicators-Overview.md) for the full
eight-family taxonomy and the shared `Indicator` trait surface. The
per-indicator pages below cover formulas, parameters, warmup behaviour, edge
cases, and verified Rust / Python / Node examples. They are grouped by family,
mirroring the `indicators/<family>/` directory layout.
