/// long  market noise = average downside penetration = mean( prev_low − low | low < prev_low )
/// short market noise = average upside  penetration = mean( high − prev_high | high > prev_high )
/// long  stop = ratchet_up(   low_t  − coeff · avg_down_penetration )

///
/// Elder defines *noise* in an uptrend as the part of each bar that pokes below
/// the previous bar's low (a "downside penetration"). Averaging those
/// penetrations over a lookback and placing the stop `coeff` multiples below the
/// current low keeps the stop just outside normal pullbacks while still exiting on
/// a genuine reversal. The stop trails in the trend's favour and flips when price
/// closes through it. The average uses only the bars that actually penetrated
/// (Elder's definition), so a noiseless trend gives a tight stop at the bar's
/// extreme.
///
/// The first bar seeds the prior candle; the next `period` bars accumulate the
/// penetration statistics, so the first stop lands after `period + 1` inputs.
/// Each `update` is O(1).
