/// Williams Fractal — identifies fractal pivot highs and lows using a 5-bar pattern.
///
/// A **fractal high** occurs when the middle bar of five consecutive bars has the
/// highest high: `bars[2].high > bars[i].high` for all `i ≠ 2`.
///
/// A **fractal low** occurs when the middle bar has the lowest low:
/// `bars[2].low < bars[i].low` for all `i ≠ 2`.
///
/// The indicator returns:
/// - `+1` when the confirmed bar (2 bars ago) is a fractal high
/// - `-1` when it is a fractal low
/// - `0` when it is both (rare equality case)
/// - `SignalValue::Unavailable` until 5 bars have been seen
///
/// Use [`WilliamsFractal::fractal_high`] and [`WilliamsFractal::fractal_low`] to
/// read the most recently confirmed fractal price levels directly.
///
/// # Example
/// ```rust
/// use fin_primitives::signals::indicators::WilliamsFractal;
/// use fin_primitives::signals::Signal;
///
/// let f = WilliamsFractal::new("wfrac").unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(f.period(), 5);
/// assert!(!f.is_ready());
/// ```
