/// Identical Three Crows — a 3-bar bearish reversal: three consecutive red
/// candles with steadily lower closes where each candle opens at (or very near)
/// the prior candle's close, so the bodies stack in an identical staircase.
///
/// ```text
/// tol_n         = tolerance * max(|open|, |prev.close|)
/// all three red                              (close < open)
/// declining closes                           (bar2.close < bar1.close, bar3.close < bar2.close)
/// bar2 opens at bar1's close                 (|bar2.open − bar1.close| <= tol_2)
/// bar3 opens at bar2's close                 (|bar3.open − bar2.close| <= tol_3)
/// ```
///
/// Output is `−1.0` when the pattern completes and `0.0` otherwise. Identical
/// Three Crows is a single-direction (bearish-only) pattern, so it never emits
/// `+1.0`. The first two bars always return `0.0` because the three-bar window
/// is not yet filled. `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 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, IdenticalThreeCrows, Indicator};
///
/// let mut indicator = IdenticalThreeCrows::new();
/// indicator.update(Candle::new(13.0, 13.1, 11.9, 12.0, 1.0, 0).unwrap());
/// indicator.update(Candle::new(12.0, 12.1, 10.9, 11.0, 1.0, 1).unwrap());
/// let out = indicator
///     .update(Candle::new(11.0, 11.1, 9.9, 10.0, 1.0, 2).unwrap());
/// assert_eq!(out, Some(-1.0));
