//! Fractal Dimension Index (FDI) indicator.

/// Fractal Dimension Index (Sevcik method).
///
/// Measures whether price is trending or moving randomly. FDI quantifies the
/// complexity of the price path: a value near 1.0 indicates a strongly trending
/// market; values near 1.5 indicate a random walk; values near 2.0 indicate a
/// highly oscillatory, noisy market.
///
/// Formula:
/// - `L1` = Σ |close[i] − close[i−1]|   (path length)
/// - `L2` = max_close − min_close        (straight-line end-to-end range)
/// - `FDI = 1 + (ln(L1) − ln(L2)) / ln(period − 1)`
///
/// Returns `SignalValue::Unavailable` until `period` bars have been accumulated.
/// Returns `SignalValue::Scalar(1.0)` (pure trend) when `L2 == 0`.
///
/// # Example
/// ```rust
/// use fin_primitives::signals::indicators::FractalDimensionIndex;
/// use fin_primitives::signals::Signal;
/// let fdi = FractalDimensionIndex::new("fdi_30", 30).unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(fdi.period(), 30);
/// ```
