//! Tweezer Top / Bottom candlestick pattern.
use crate::error::{Error, Result};
use crate::ohlcv::Candle;
use crate::traits::Indicator;
/// Tweezer — a 2-bar reversal pattern where two consecutive candles share an
/// extreme.
///
/// ```text
/// tol = tolerance * |prev.high| + tolerance * |prev.low| (per leg)
/// tweezer_top = |curr.high − prev.high| <= tol_high
/// tweezer_bot = |curr.low − prev.low| <= tol_low
/// ```
///
/// The output is `−1.0` for a Tweezer Top (matched highs), `+1.0` for a
/// Tweezer Bottom (matched lows), and `0.0` otherwise. If *both* extremes
/// match — a flat pair of candles — the bottom wins by convention (bullish
/// rejection of the low). `tolerance` defaults to `0.001` (10 bps relative)
/// and must lie in `[0, 1)`.
///
/// Pattern-shape check only — no trend filter is applied; combine with a trend
/// indicator for actionable signals.
///
/// # Signed ±1 encoding
///
/// This detector already emits the uniform candlestick sign convention shared
/// across the pattern family — `+1.0` bullish, `−1.0` bearish, `0.0` no
/// pattern — so it drops straight into a machine-learning feature matrix where
/// the bullish and bearish variants of the pattern occupy a single dimension.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
/// use wickra_core::{Candle, Indicator, Tweezer};
///
/// let mut indicator = Tweezer::new();
/// indicator.update(Candle::new(11.0, 12.0, 9.5, 9.6, 1.0, 0).unwrap());
/// // Matching low.
/// let out = indicator.update(Candle::new(9.7, 10.5, 9.5, 10.2, 1.0, 1).unwrap());
