///
/// Standard [`MacdIndicator`](crate::MacdIndicator) smooths price with exponential
/// averages that ignore volume. The volume-weighted variant (Buff Dormeier and
/// others) replaces each average with a [`Vwma`], so heavy-volume bars dominate
/// the trend estimate and the oscillator leans toward where real participation
/// occurred. Crossovers backed by volume therefore appear sooner and noise from
/// thin bars is damped. The signal line keeps a standard EMA, matching the
/// classic histogram construction.
///
/// `fast` must be strictly smaller than `slow`. The first output lands after
/// `slow + signal − 1` inputs: `slow` to seed the slow VWMA, then `signal − 1`
/// more to seed the signal EMA. Each `update` is O(1).
