//! Volume-Weighted ATR — ATR weighted by volume, capturing high-volume volatility events.

use rust_decimal::Decimal;
use std::collections::VecDeque;

/// Volume-Weighted ATR — `sum(TR × volume) / sum(volume)` over the last `period` bars.
///
/// Bars with higher volume are given more weight in the average. This produces an
/// ATR that is biased toward the volatility seen during active trading, filtering
/// out low-volume noise.
///
/// - Higher than regular ATR: volatile bars tend to have high volume.
/// - Lower than regular ATR: very wide bars occur on thin volume.
///
/// Returns [`SignalValue::Unavailable`] until `period` bars have been seen (requires
/// one extra bar to compute the first TR with a previous close), or when total volume
/// in the window is zero.
///
/// # Example
/// ```rust
/// use fin_primitives::signals::indicators::VolumeWeightedAtr;
/// use fin_primitives::signals::Signal;
/// let vwatr = VolumeWeightedAtr::new("vwatr_14", 14).unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(vwatr.period(), 14);
/// ```
