|
| //| THE ONE COPY OF THE REGIME ARITHMETIC. Efficiency ratio, variance |
|
| //| ratio and the three-way label they agree on used to live inside |
|
| //| CWarriorSignal, reading the stdlib series - which meant nothing |
|
| //| that was not a signal module (the Mind's price modality, the bar |
|
| //| cache) could ask "what is the market doing" without a second copy |
|
| //| of the formulas, and two copies eventually disagree. |
|
| //| |
|
| //| Every function takes a NEWEST-FIRST array: x[0] is the bar being |
|
| //| judged, x[k] is k bars before it - the same orientation as a |
|
| //| series shift, so CWarriorSignal fills it with Close(shift + k) and |
|
| //| CBarCache::ClosesBack() fills it from its oldest-first storage. |
|
| //| A caller must supply period + 1 values. |
