/// Short Line — a single candle whose range is *shorter* than the recent average
/// while its body still dominates that (small) range: a compact directional bar.
/// As with [`LongLine`](crate::LongLine), "short" only has meaning relative to
/// recent activity, so the detector compares each candle's range against a rolling
/// average of the previous `period` ranges.
///
/// ```text
/// avg = mean range of the previous `period` candles
/// short line = range < avg  AND  |close − open| >= 0.5 * range
/// white -> +1.0,  black -> −1.0
/// ```
///
/// Output is `+1.0` (short white line), `−1.0` (short black line), or `0.0`
/// otherwise. The first `period` candles return `0.0` while the rolling average
/// fills. `period` defaults to `5` and must be at least `1`. 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` bullish, `−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, Indicator, ShortLine};
///
/// let mut indicator = ShortLine::new();
/// // Five wide bars fill the rolling average.
/// for ts in 0..5 {
///     indicator.update(Candle::new(10.0, 13.0, 9.5, 12.9, 1.0, ts).unwrap());
/// }
/// // A compact solid white bar is a short white line.
/// let out = indicator
///     .update(Candle::new(10.0, 11.0, 9.9, 10.9, 1.0, 5).unwrap());
/// assert_eq!(out, Some(1.0));
