Two defects surfaced by research/test_classic.py, both verified fixed by re-running the
transcription against 178k bars of EURUSD H1.
CSignalMA model 1 could never fire. For any recursive average - and MA_TYPE_EMA is the
shipped default - MA(i) = a*Close(i) + (1-a)*MA(i+1), so
DiffMA(i) = a * (Close(i) - MA(i+1))
DiffCloseMA(i) = (1-a) * (Close(i) - MA(i+1))
are positive multiples of one quantity and always share a sign. Model 1 asks for a close
BELOW a RISING average, which is precisely the combination that identity forbids: 0.000%
of bars, either direction, any symbol. The MQL5 standard library this was ported from
defaults to MODE_SMA, where the two are merely correlated - the bug arrived with the EMA
default, not with the port. Reading the slope one bar back (DiffMAPrev) breaks the tie for
every MA type while keeping the model's stated meaning. Now fires on 7.92% of bars.
CSignalIchimoku model 11 fired on 27% of bars at weight 100. Sanyaku is three standing
STATES conjoined with no transition term, so it held across long stretches - and being
last in the if-chain at the top weight, the module's highest-conviction reading was also
its most common one, overwriting all eight event models below it on a quarter of all bars.
The old comment rejected an event form because "demanding all three flip on the same bar
would fire almost never" - true, but that is not the alternative. Kouten is the TURN: the
ALIGNMENT transitions, and only one role need change for it to. Testing !Sanyaku(idx+1)
fires once per aligned stretch. Now 2.17%, in line with Kumo breakout (2.4%) and the
strong TK cross (1.1%). DataReady() extended one bar deeper to cover the lookback.
Neither pattern showed edge before or after; this is about the models meaning what they
say and the vote not being dominated by a constant.

Add MACD_FAST, MACD_SLOW, MACD_SIGNAL presets and Ichimoku Tenkan, Kijun, Senkou presets to InputEnums.mqh. All combinations are designed to satisfy the respective indicator's validation rules (fast < slow for MACD, Tenkan < Kijun < Senkou B for Ichimoku), eliminating init errors and allowing the auto-tuner to perturb settings independently.
Introduce VOTE_CLOSE_PRESETS enum with a Disabled option (value 101) that bypasses vote-driven position closing via arithmetic thresholding, removing the need for a separate boolean flag. This ensures positions exit only via stop-loss, take-profit, or trailing when disabled.
