//! In-Neck candlestick pattern.
use crate::ohlcv::Candle;
use crate::traits::Indicator;
/// In-Neck — a 2-bar bearish continuation, slightly stronger than On-Neck. A long
/// black candle in a decline is followed by a white candle that opens below the
/// black bar's low and closes just barely *into* the black body, around its close
/// level. The shallow recovery still favours the sellers.
///
/// ```text
/// long body = |close − open| >= 0.5 * (high − low)
/// bar1 black & long
/// bar2 white, opens below bar1's low (open2 < low1)
/// bar2 closes just into bar1's body (close1 <= close2 <= close1 + 0.1 · body1)
/// ```
///
/// Output is `−1.0` when the pattern completes and `0.0` otherwise. In-Neck is a
/// single-direction (bearish-only) continuation, so it never emits `+1.0`. The
/// first bar always returns `0.0` because the two-bar window is not yet filled.
/// Body and neckline thresholds follow the geometric house style rather than
/// TA-Lib's rolling averages. Pattern-shape check only — no trend filter is
/// applied; combine with a trend indicator for actionable signals.
///
/// # Signed ±1 encoding
///
/// This detector emits the uniform candlestick sign convention shared across the
/// pattern family — `−1.0` bearish, `0.0` no pattern — so it drops straight into
/// a machine-learning feature matrix as a single dimension.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
/// use wickra_core::{Candle, InNeck, Indicator};
///
/// let mut indicator = InNeck::new();
/// indicator.update(Candle::new(15.0, 15.1, 9.0, 10.0, 1.0, 0).unwrap());
/// let out = indicator
/// .update(Candle::new(7.0, 10.3, 6.9, 10.2, 1.0, 1).unwrap());
/// assert_eq!(out, Some(-1.0));
/// ```
