kingchenc 395a2289f4 release: bump 0.8.3 -> 0.8.4 (#256)
Version bump `0.8.3` → `0.8.4`.

Ships the work merged via #254:

### Fixed
- A single non-finite (NaN/inf) tick no longer poisons indicator state — 38 more scalar/pairwise indicators (linear-regression family, rolling quantiles/IQR, `Variance`/`StdDev`-derived stats, `Kurtosis`/`Skewness`, trailing stops, `KalmanHedgeRatio`, `SpreadBollingerBands`, …) now reject non-finite input and return `None`, joining the 16 pairwise indicators fixed earlier.

### Added
- Catalogue-wide property-based invariant harness (`crates/wickra-core/tests/invariants.rs`) asserting `batch == streaming`, `reset == fresh`, and non-finite-input rejection for every indicator and bar-builder.

### Changed
- CI: every job now has a runtime cap and the flaky Node test step auto-retries.
- Documentation accuracy fixes in `SECURITY.md`, `ARCHITECTURE.md`, and `THREAT_MODEL.md`.

Bump touches the manual release touchpoints only (`Cargo.toml`/`Cargo.lock`, Python/Node/Java/C#/R manifests, lockfiles, `SECURITY.md`, `CHANGELOG.md`). docs/webpage version strings are left to `sync-about.yml` on the tag.

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, plus a C ABI for C/C++, C#, Go, Java, R and any other C-capable language. 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.

Benchmark

benchmarks/throughput.js reports streaming and batch updates-per-second for SMA, ATR and MACD. It measures this binding's FFI overhead, not a cross-library ratio (the same Rust core runs under every binding) — see the repository BENCHMARKS.md §3.

npx napi build --platform --release
node benchmarks/throughput.js

Documentation

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

Wickra ships native bindings for Python, Node.js, WebAssembly and Rust, plus a C ABI hub that any C-capable language (C, C++, Go, C#, Java, R) links against — all exposing 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.
