//! Volatility Bias indicator.
//!
//! Measures what fraction of the rolling true range sum comes from upward moves
//! versus downward moves, identifying directional volatility asymmetry.

/// Rolling fraction of true range attributable to upward moves.
///
/// For each bar, the "up TR" is `max(0, high - prev_close)` and the "down TR"
/// is `max(0, prev_close - low)`. The bias is:
/// ```text
/// bias = sum(up_tr, N) / sum(total_tr, N)
/// ```
///
/// - Values near `1.0`: volatility is predominantly upward (bullish momentum).
/// - Values near `0.0`: volatility is predominantly downward (bearish momentum).
/// - Values near `0.5`: balanced volatility.
///
/// On the first bar (no prev_close), `up_tr = high - low` and `total_tr = high - low`
/// → bias seeds at `1.0` if the range is non-zero.
///
/// Returns [`SignalValue::Unavailable`] until `period` bars have accumulated or
/// when cumulative total TR is zero.
///
/// # Errors
/// Returns [`FinError::InvalidPeriod`] if `period == 0`.
///
/// # Example
/// ```rust
/// use fin_primitives::signals::indicators::VolatilityBias;
/// use fin_primitives::signals::Signal;
///
/// let vb = VolatilityBias::new("vb", 14).unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(vb.period(), 14);
/// assert!(!vb.is_ready());
/// ```
