kingchenc fcb221ec03 feat: add 19 indicators for external feature-extractor coverage (377 -> 396) (#175)
Adds 19 streaming indicators so an external trading-bot feature extractor can replace its hand-built features with native, batch/streaming-equivalent ones. Each is a real gap (verified against the existing catalogue), production-only, with full Python/Node/WASM bindings, fuzz drivers, and tests. Five commits, one per family group; counter 377 -> 396.

## What's added

**Price Statistics (6)** — `LogReturn`, `RealizedVolatility` (raw quadratic variation, the un-annualised counterpart to `HistoricalVolatility`), `RollingQuantile`, `RollingIqr`, `RollingPercentileRank`, `SpreadAr1Coefficient` (pairwise AR(1) rho of the spread; complements `OuHalfLife`).

**Price Action (4)** — `CloseVsOpen`, `BodySizePct`, `WickRatio`, `HighLowRange` (stateless per-bar OHLC transforms).

**Regime / Trend / Jump labels (3)** — `TrendLabel` (sign of the rolling OLS slope), `JumpIndicator` (return outliers vs trailing volatility, measured as deviation from the trailing mean so steady drift is not flagged), `RegimeLabel` (volatility-quantile regime split).

**Risk / Performance (2)** — `WinRate`, `Expectancy` (R-multiple).

**Microstructure (4)** — `OrderFlowImbalance` (Cont-Kukanov-Stoikov OFI), `Vpin`, `AmihudIlliquidity`, `RollMeasure`. These reuse the existing `OrderBook` / `Trade` inputs (no new input type).

## Intentionally NOT added (already present, would be duplicates)

- **Population skew / kurtosis** — `skewness.rs` / `kurtosis.rs` are already population moments (divisor n).
- **Hurst R/S** — `hurst_exponent.rs` already uses rescaled-range (R/S) analysis.
- **Queue Imbalance** — exactly `OrderBookImbalanceTop1` ((bidSize - askSize) / (bidSize + askSize)).

## Verification

`cargo test -p wickra-core` (lib 3187 + doc 354), `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features -D warnings` clean, node `npm run build && npm test` (471), python `pytest` (784). Counter consistent across `mod.rs`, lib block, README, and docs/README at 396.

Wickra — Node.js

CI codecov npm License: MIT OR Apache-2.0

Streaming-first technical indicators for Node.js. npm install wickra — prebuilt native binary, no system dependencies.

Wickra is a multi-language technical-analysis library with a Rust core and bindings for Python, Node.js, and WebAssembly. Every indicator is an O(1) streaming state machine, so live trading bots and historical backtests share the exact same implementation. This package is the Node.js binding (napi-rs); it exposes 200+ streaming-first indicators across sixteen families.

Install

npm install wickra

The native addon ships as a prebuilt binary per platform (Linux, macOS, Windows — x64 and arm64), selected automatically through optional dependencies. There is nothing to compile.

Quick start

const wickra = require('wickra');

// Batch: run an indicator over a whole array.
const prices = Array.from({ length: 1000 }, (_, i) => 100 + i * 0.1);
const values = new wickra.RSI(14).batch(prices); // null during warmup

// Streaming: the same indicator, fed tick by tick in O(1).
const rsi = new wickra.RSI(14);
for (const price of liveFeed) {
  const value = rsi.update(price); // no recomputation over history
  if (value !== null && value > 70) {
    console.log('overbought');
  }
}

batch(prices) and feeding the same prices through update() produce identical values — the equivalence is enforced by the test suite.

Documentation

The full indicator catalogue, guides, quickstarts, and API reference live in the main repository and documentation site:

Wickra ships four bindings — Python, Node.js, WebAssembly, and Rust — that all expose the same indicators from the shared, unsafe-forbidden Rust core.

Disclaimer

Wickra is an indicator toolkit, not a trading system. The values it computes are deterministic transforms of the input data — they are not financial advice and do not predict the market. Any use in a live trading context is at your own risk. The library is provided as is, without warranty of any kind.
