feat: implement dual-pipeline signal engine service

New service at services/signal_engine/ implementing concurrent heuristic
(deterministic scoring) and probabilistic (Bayesian inference) pipelines
that evaluate technical signals across 6 timeframes (M30-M) and produce
independent BUY/WATCH/SKIP verdicts per ticker per evaluation tick.

Components:
- Input Normalizer: multi-source data assembly with sentinel fallbacks
- Signal Library: Fibonacci, MA Stack, RSI, Cup & Handle, Elliott Wave
- Multi-Timeframe Confluence Engine: weighted scoring with D/W/M anchors
- Hard Filter Engine: macro_bias, valuation, earnings proximity gating
- Heuristic Pipeline: S_total scoring with confidence-gated verdicts
- Probabilistic Pipeline: Bayesian log-odds with regime priors, entropy
  gating, EV_R calculation, and signal correlation penalty
- Exit Engine: stop-loss, targets, trailing ATR-based stops
- Delta Analyzer: pipeline agreement tracking with rolling Redis metrics
- Output Formatter: SignalOutput contract + Recommendation schema mapping
- Worker orchestrator: concurrent pipelines with failure isolation
- Main entry point: queue polling with fail-safe config loading

Infrastructure:
- Migration 039: signal_engine_outputs table with 3 indexes
- Helm chart: signalEngine service entry (processing tier)
- Redis key: QUEUE_SIGNAL_ENGINE constant

Tests: 390 tests (unit + property-based) covering all components
Config: dual_pipeline_enabled=false by default (safe rollout)

+# Design Document — Dual-Pipeline Signal Engine
+
+## Overview
+
+The dual-pipeline signal engine is a new service at `services/signal_engine/` that runs as an independent Kubernetes deployment alongside the existing aggregation → recommendation pipeline. It implements a concurrent dual-pipeline architecture where both a heuristic (deterministic scoring) and probabilistic (Bayesian inference) pipeline evaluate the same normalized inputs per ticker per evaluation tick, producing independent BUY/WATCH/SKIP verdicts. A delta analyzer compares the two verdicts, and an output formatter assembles a structured `SignalOutput` contract published to the existing `trading_decisions` Redis queue.
+
+The engine introduces several new components — Input Normalizer, Signal Library (Fibonacci, MA Stack, RSI, Cup & Handle, Elliott Wave), Multi-Timeframe Engine, Hard Filter Engine, Exit Engine, Delta Analyzer, and Output Formatter — while reusing existing infrastructure: `compute_signal_weight`, `compute_bayesian_posterior`, `classify_regime`, `WeightedSignal`, `BayesianPosterior`, and `RegimeClassification` from `services/aggregation/`.
+
+The service is toggled via `dual_pipeline_enabled` in the `risk_configs` table (default: false, fail-safe). When disabled, the existing pipeline operates unchanged. When enabled, the signal engine runs alongside the existing pipeline with support for shadow mode (dual-pipeline output persisted but not forwarded to trading).
+
+### Design Rationale
+
+- **Separate service, not inline extension**: The signal engine has a fundamentally different evaluation cadence (multi-timeframe technical signals) and data flow (OHLCV bars, not document intelligence). Embedding it in the aggregation worker would couple two distinct concerns.
+- **Reuse existing math**: The Bayesian posterior, regime classification, and signal weighting functions are battle-tested. The probabilistic pipeline wraps them with regime-based priors and likelihood ratio accumulation rather than reimplementing.
+- **Concurrent pipelines via asyncio.gather**: Both pipelines share the same `NormalizedInput` reference and run concurrently. If one fails, the other completes normally with the failed pipeline producing a SKIP verdict.
+- **Signal clustering for correlation penalty**: The Bayesian pipeline groups signals into four clusters (momentum, structure, volatility, fundamentals) and applies exponential decay within each cluster to prevent likelihood ratio stacking inflation from correlated signals.

+
+    subgraph Exit Path
+        B --> O[Exit Engine]
+        O --> K
+    end
+```
+
+### Trigger Mechanism
+
+The signal engine polls a new Redis queue `stonks:queue:signal_engine`. Evaluation ticks are enqueued by the scheduler service after aggregation completes for a ticker. The queue message contains `{"ticker": "AAPL", "triggered_at": "2024-01-15T10:00:00Z"}`.
+
+### Integration Points
+
+| Component | Integration | Direction |
+|---|---|---|
+| Scheduler | Enqueues ticks to `signal_engine` queue | Scheduler → Signal Engine |
+| Market data tables | OHLCV bars, closing prices, returns | Signal Engine reads |
+| `macro_impact_records` | Macro bias computation | Signal Engine reads |
+| `trend_windows` | Fundamental/valuation context | Signal Engine reads |
+| `risk_configs` | Feature flags, thresholds | Signal Engine reads |
+| `classify_regime()` | Regime classification for priors | Signal Engine calls |
+| `compute_signal_weight()` | Heuristic signal weighting | Signal Engine calls |
+| `compute_bayesian_posterior()` | Bayesian accumulation | Signal Engine calls |
+| Redis `trading_decisions` | SignalOutput publication | Signal Engine → Trading Engine |
+| `signal_engine_outputs` table | Persistence for audit | Signal Engine writes |
+| Redis rolling agreement | Delta analyzer metrics | Signal Engine writes |

+# Requirements Document — Dual-Pipeline Signal Engine
+
+## Introduction
+
+The Stonks Oracle platform currently operates a single aggregation pipeline that can run in either heuristic or probabilistic mode (toggled via `probabilistic_scoring_enabled`). This feature replaces the single-pipeline toggle with a dual-pipeline architecture where both pipelines run concurrently per evaluation tick, produce independent verdicts (BUY/WATCH/SKIP), and emit a structured output contract for downstream consumers (trading engine, delta analysis, dashboards).
+
+The dual-pipeline engine introduces:
+- **Pipeline A (Heuristic)**: Deterministic scoring using the existing `S_total = S_company + S_macro + S_competitive` formula with signal weighting, producing a confidence-gated verdict.
+- **Pipeline B (Probabilistic)**: Bayesian inference using the existing `bayesian.py` infrastructure with regime-based priors, likelihood ratios, entropy gating, and expected value calculation.
+- **Hard Filter Engine**: Pre-pipeline filters that short-circuit both pipelines before evaluation.
+- **Multi-Timeframe Engine**: Signal evaluation across M30, H1, H4, D, W, M timeframes with weighted confluence scoring.
+- **Exit Engine**: Position-level exit management (stop hit, targets, trailing ATR-based).
+- **Delta Analyzer**: Compares heuristic vs probabilistic verdicts to generate training signals for future model tuning.
+- **Output Formatter**: Structured `SignalOutput` contract consumed by the trading engine and delta analysis.
+
+The design must address the signal independence assumption in the Bayesian pipeline — correlated signals (MA+RSI, Fib+Elliott) require correlation penalty or signal clustering into categories (momentum, structure, volatility, fundamentals) to prevent likelihood ratio stacking inflation.
+
+## Glossary
+
+- **Signal_Engine**: The top-level orchestrator in `services/signal_engine/` that coordinates input normalization, hard filters, both pipelines, delta analysis, and output formatting per evaluation tick.
+- **Heuristic_Pipeline**: Pipeline A — deterministic scoring that computes `S_total = S_company + S_macro + S_competitive` with signal weighting and produces a confidence-gated BUY/WATCH/SKIP verdict.
+- **Probabilistic_Pipeline**: Pipeline B — Bayesian inference pipeline that computes posterior probability via log-likelihood accumulation with regime-based priors, entropy gating, and expected value calculation.
+- **Input_Normalizer**: The component that ingests multi-timeframe OHLCV data, fundamentals, macro context, and open positions into a unified `NormalizedInput` structure consumed by both pipelines.
+- **Signal_Library**: The collection of technical signal evaluators (Fibonacci retracement, MA stack, RSI, Cup & Handle, Elliott Wave) that produce scored signals per timeframe.
+- **Multi_Timeframe_Engine**: The component that evaluates signals across six timeframes (M30, H1, H4, D, W, M) and computes weighted confluence scores.
+- **Hard_Filter_Engine**: The pre-pipeline filter stage that evaluates macro bias, valuation score, and earnings proximity to short-circuit evaluation before either pipeline runs.
+- **Exit_Engine**: The position management component that evaluates stop hits, take-profit targets, and trailing ATR-based stops for open positions.
+- **Delta_Analyzer**: The component that compares heuristic and probabilistic verdicts, tracks agreement rates, measures confidence deltas, and records disagreement reasons as training signals.
+- **Output_Formatter**: The component that assembles the structured `SignalOutput` contract from both pipeline results, delta analysis, and optional trade plan.
+- **SignalOutput**: The structured output contract containing ticker, timestamp, price, heuristic verdict/confidence/S_total, probabilistic verdict/P_up/entropy/EV_R, delta analysis, and optional trade plan.
+- **Verdict**: A pipeline decision of BUY, WATCH, or SKIP with associated confidence and reasoning.
+- **Confluence**: The condition where a signal triggers across multiple timeframes; requires activation on at least 2 timeframes including at least one of D, W, or M.
+- **Entropy_Gate**: Shannon entropy threshold used in the probabilistic pipeline to detect high-uncertainty states and force SKIP verdicts.
+- **EV_R**: Expected value per unit of risk, computed as `P_up · E[win_R] - (1 - P_up) · 1.0`, used as a quality gate in the probabilistic pipeline.
+- **Signal_Cluster**: A grouping of correlated signals (momentum, structure, volatility, fundamentals) used to prevent likelihood ratio stacking inflation in the Bayesian pipeline.
+- **Likelihood_Ratio**: The ratio `P(signal|up) / P(signal|down)` used in Bayesian updating, where `P(sig|up) = h·s + (1-h)·(1-s)·0.5`.
+- **Regime_Prior**: The initial probability assigned based on market regime classification: bull=0.58, range=0.50, bear=0.42.
+- **OHLCV**: Open, High, Low, Close, Volume — standard market data bar format.
+- **ATR**: Average True Range — a volatility measure used for trailing stop calculations.
+- **Fibonacci_Retracement**: A technical analysis tool computing price levels as `L(r) = SH - r·(SH - SL)` where SH is swing high, SL is swing low, and r is a retracement ratio (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786).
+
+---
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement 1: Input Normalization
+
+**User Story:** As a signal engine operator, I want all market data, fundamentals, macro context, and open positions normalized into a single input structure, so that both pipelines consume identical inputs per evaluation tick.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. WHEN an evaluation tick is triggered for a ticker, THE Input_Normalizer SHALL construct a `NormalizedInput` containing multi-timeframe OHLCV bars (M30, H1, H4, D, W, M), fundamental metrics (valuation_score, earnings_proximity_days), macro context (macro_bias as float in [-1.0, 1.0]), and open position state (entry_price, current_price, stop_loss, targets).
+2. THE Input_Normalizer SHALL source OHLCV data from the existing market data tables, fundamental metrics from the existing company and trend data, and macro context from the existing `macro_impact_records` and `global_events` tables.
+3. IF any required data source is unavailable or returns an error, THEN THE Input_Normalizer SHALL populate the corresponding field with a sentinel value (`None` for optional fields, empty list for OHLCV bars) and log a warning identifying the missing source.
+4. THE Input_Normalizer SHALL validate that all OHLCV bars have monotonically increasing timestamps within each timeframe series.
+5. THE Input_Normalizer SHALL produce identical `NormalizedInput` instances for both pipelines within the same evaluation tick (shared reference, no independent fetches).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 2: Signal Library — Technical Signal Evaluation
+
+**User Story:** As a quantitative analyst, I want a library of technical signal evaluators that produce scored signals per timeframe, so that both pipelines can consume standardized signal assessments.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Signal_Library SHALL implement Fibonacci retracement signal evaluation using the formula `L(r) = SH - r·(SH - SL)` for retracement ratios [0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786], where SH is the swing high and SL is the swing low within the evaluation window.
+2. THE Signal_Library SHALL implement moving average stack evaluation that detects bullish alignment (MA_10 > MA_20 > MA_50 > MA_200) and bearish alignment (MA_10 < MA_20 < MA_50 < MA_200), producing a signal strength proportional to the degree of alignment.
+3. THE Signal_Library SHALL implement RSI evaluation using the standard 14-period RSI formula, producing overbought signals (RSI > 70) and oversold signals (RSI < 30) with strength scaled by distance from the threshold.
+4. THE Signal_Library SHALL implement Cup & Handle pattern detection that identifies the cup formation (U-shaped price recovery) and handle (small consolidation), producing a signal with confidence proportional to pattern completeness.
+5. THE Signal_Library SHALL implement Elliott Wave detection that identifies impulse waves (5-wave structure) and corrective waves (3-wave structure), producing a signal with the current wave position and projected direction.
+6. WHEN a signal evaluator receives insufficient data for its calculation (fewer bars than the required lookback period), THE Signal_Library SHALL return a null signal with a reason code indicating insufficient data rather than producing a partial evaluation.
+7. FOR ALL signal evaluators, THE Signal_Library SHALL produce output conforming to a common `SignalResult` structure containing: signal_type, timeframe, strength (float in [0.0, 1.0]), direction (bullish/bearish/neutral), confidence (float in [0.0, 1.0]), and metadata specific to the signal type.
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 3: Multi-Timeframe Confluence Engine
+
+**User Story:** As a quantitative analyst, I want signals evaluated across multiple timeframes with weighted confluence scoring, so that the engine prioritizes signals confirmed across longer timeframes.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Multi_Timeframe_Engine SHALL evaluate each signal type across six timeframes with the following weights: M30=0.03, H1=0.07, H4=0.15, D=0.30, W=0.30, M=0.15.
+2. THE Multi_Timeframe_Engine SHALL compute a weighted confluence score as `C_confluence = Σ(w_tf · s_tf)` where `w_tf` is the timeframe weight and `s_tf` is the signal strength on that timeframe (0.0 if the signal did not trigger).
+3. WHEN a signal triggers on fewer than 2 timeframes, THE Multi_Timeframe_Engine SHALL discard the signal from further pipeline processing (minimum confluence threshold).
+4. WHEN a signal triggers on 2 or more timeframes but none of D, W, or M are included, THE Multi_Timeframe_Engine SHALL discard the signal from further pipeline processing (higher-timeframe anchor requirement).
+5. THE Multi_Timeframe_Engine SHALL pass the confluence-filtered signals and their weighted scores to both the Heuristic_Pipeline and Probabilistic_Pipeline.
+6. FOR ALL signal sets where a signal triggers on more timeframes with higher weights, THE Multi_Timeframe_Engine SHALL produce a higher confluence score (monotonicity with respect to timeframe activation count and weight).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 4: Hard Filter Engine — Pre-Pipeline Gating
+
+**User Story:** As a risk manager, I want hard filters that short-circuit both pipelines before evaluation, so that clearly unfavorable conditions produce immediate SKIP verdicts without wasting computation.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. WHEN the macro_bias value from the NormalizedInput equals -1.0, THE Hard_Filter_Engine SHALL produce an immediate SKIP verdict for both pipelines with reason "macro_bias_negative".
+2. WHEN the valuation_score from the NormalizedInput is below 0.3, THE Hard_Filter_Engine SHALL produce an immediate SKIP verdict for both pipelines with reason "valuation_below_threshold".
+3. WHEN the earnings_proximity_days from the NormalizedInput is 5 or fewer, THE Hard_Filter_Engine SHALL produce an immediate SKIP verdict for both pipelines with reason "earnings_block".
+4. WHEN multiple hard filters trigger simultaneously, THE Hard_Filter_Engine SHALL record all triggered filter reasons in the SKIP verdict (not just the first).
+5. WHEN no hard filters trigger, THE Hard_Filter_Engine SHALL pass the NormalizedInput through to both pipelines without modification.
+6. THE Hard_Filter_Engine SHALL execute before either pipeline begins evaluation, and both pipelines SHALL receive the same filter decision.
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 5: Heuristic Pipeline — Deterministic Scoring and Verdict
+
+**User Story:** As a quantitative analyst, I want the heuristic pipeline to produce a deterministic BUY/WATCH/SKIP verdict based on composite scoring of company, macro, and competitive signals, so that the system maintains a transparent, auditable scoring path.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Heuristic_Pipeline SHALL compute a total score `S_total = S_company + S_macro + S_competitive` using the existing three-layer signal aggregation with the current `WeightedSignal` abstraction.
+2. THE Heuristic_Pipeline SHALL compute signal weights using the formula `W_signal = gate · recency · credibility · (1 + novelty) · market_context` consistent with the existing `compute_signal_weight` function in `scoring.py`.
+3. THE Heuristic_Pipeline SHALL compute a confidence value from the existing trend confidence formula incorporating source count, extraction confidence, signal agreement, and contradiction penalty.
+4. THE Heuristic_Pipeline SHALL produce a BUY verdict WHEN confidence >= 0.70 AND S_total >= 1.2 AND valuation_score >= 0.5 AND macro_bias > 0 AND earnings_proximity_days > 5.
+5. THE Heuristic_Pipeline SHALL produce a WATCH verdict WHEN confidence >= 0.55 AND the BUY conditions are not fully met.
+6. THE Heuristic_Pipeline SHALL produce a SKIP verdict WHEN confidence < 0.55.
+7. THE Heuristic_Pipeline SHALL emit a `HeuristicResult` containing: verdict (BUY/WATCH/SKIP), confidence (float), S_total (float), S_company (float), S_macro (float), S_competitive (float), signal_weights (list), and reasoning (list of strings explaining the verdict).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 6: Probabilistic Pipeline — Bayesian Inference and Verdict
+
+**User Story:** As a quantitative analyst, I want the probabilistic pipeline to produce a Bayesian BUY/WATCH/SKIP verdict using regime-based priors, likelihood ratios, entropy gating, and expected value calculation, so that the system captures uncertainty structure and risk-adjusted expected outcomes.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL initialize the prior probability based on the current market regime classification: bull regime → P_prior = 0.58, range regime → P_prior = 0.50, bear regime → P_prior = 0.42.
+2. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL compute likelihood ratios for each signal using `P(sig|up) = h·s + (1-h)·(1-s)·0.5` and `LR = P(sig|up) / P(sig|down)`, where h is the signal's historical hit rate and s is the signal strength.
+3. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL update the posterior using log-odds accumulation: `logit(P_post) = logit(P_prior) + Σ log(LR_i)`, converting back to probability via the sigmoid function.
+4. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL compute Shannon entropy `H = -P_up·log₂(P_up) - (1-P_up)·log₂(1-P_up)` and apply entropy gating: WHEN H > 0.95, THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL force a SKIP verdict with reason "high_entropy".
+5. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL compute expected value per unit risk as `EV_R = P_up · E[win_R] - (1 - P_up) · 1.0` where `E[win_R]` is the expected win in risk units derived from signal strength and historical reward-risk ratios.
+6. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL produce a BUY verdict WHEN P_up >= 0.60 AND entropy <= 0.90 AND EV_R >= 1.5 AND macro_bias > 0 AND valuation_score >= 0.5.
+7. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL produce a WATCH verdict WHEN P_up >= 0.55 AND entropy <= 0.95 AND the BUY conditions are not fully met.
+8. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL produce a SKIP verdict in all other cases.
+9. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL emit a `ProbabilisticResult` containing: verdict (BUY/WATCH/SKIP), P_up (float), entropy (float), EV_R (float), prior (float), posterior (float), likelihood_ratios (list), regime (string), and reasoning (list of strings).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 7: Signal Correlation Penalty — Preventing LR Stacking Inflation
+
+**User Story:** As a quantitative analyst, I want correlated signals grouped into clusters with a correlation penalty applied to prevent likelihood ratio stacking inflation, so that the Bayesian pipeline does not overstate confidence from redundant signals.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL classify each signal into one of four clusters: momentum (MA stack, RSI), structure (Fibonacci retracement, Elliott Wave), volatility (ATR-based signals, Bollinger-derived), and fundamentals (valuation, earnings, macro).
+2. WHEN multiple signals within the same cluster produce likelihood ratios in the same direction, THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL apply a within-cluster penalty: only the strongest LR in the cluster contributes at full weight, and subsequent LRs in the same cluster contribute at a decay factor of 0.5^(n-1) where n is the signal's rank within the cluster by LR magnitude.
+3. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL apply no penalty across different clusters (signals from different clusters are treated as independent).
+4. WHEN a cluster contains only one signal, THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL apply no penalty to that signal.
+5. FOR ALL signal sets, THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL produce a posterior probability that is less than or equal to the posterior computed without the correlation penalty (the penalty only reduces confidence, never inflates it).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 8: Exit Engine — Position Management
+
+**User Story:** As a trader, I want the signal engine to evaluate exit conditions for open positions, so that stop hits, take-profit targets, and trailing stops are managed as part of the signal evaluation cycle.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. WHEN the current price of an open position hits or crosses below the stop_loss level, THE Exit_Engine SHALL emit an EXIT_FULL signal for that position with reason "stop_hit".
+2. WHEN the current price of an open position hits or crosses above the first take-profit target (target_1), THE Exit_Engine SHALL emit an EXIT_HALF signal for that position with reason "target_1_hit".
+3. WHEN the current price of an open position hits or crosses above the second take-profit target (target_2), THE Exit_Engine SHALL emit an EXIT_FULL signal for that position with reason "target_2_hit".
+4. WHEN a partial exit has been executed (EXIT_HALF), THE Exit_Engine SHALL activate a trailing stop at `current_price - ATR · trailing_multiplier` and update the trailing stop upward as the price advances (the trailing stop moves up but does not move down).
+5. WHEN the trailing stop is active and the current price crosses below the trailing stop level, THE Exit_Engine SHALL emit an EXIT_FULL signal for the remaining position with reason "trailing_stop_hit".
+6. THE Exit_Engine SHALL evaluate exit conditions before the signal pipelines run for new entry signals, so that exit signals take priority over new entry signals for the same ticker.
+7. THE Exit_Engine SHALL emit exit signals as part of the `SignalOutput` contract with the position identifier, exit type (EXIT_HALF/EXIT_FULL), and reason.
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 9: Delta Analyzer — Pipeline Agreement Tracking
+
+**User Story:** As a model developer, I want the delta analyzer to compare heuristic and probabilistic verdicts and record disagreement details, so that I can generate training signals for future model tuning.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. WHEN both pipelines produce verdicts for the same ticker and tick, THE Delta_Analyzer SHALL compute an agreement flag (true if both verdicts are identical, false otherwise).
+2. THE Delta_Analyzer SHALL compute a confidence delta as `|heuristic_confidence - probabilistic_P_up|` representing the magnitude of disagreement between the two pipelines.
+3. WHEN the pipelines disagree on verdict, THE Delta_Analyzer SHALL record the disagreement reason by identifying which conditions differed (e.g., "heuristic_confidence_below_threshold", "probabilistic_entropy_too_high", "EV_R_below_threshold").
+4. THE Delta_Analyzer SHALL track a rolling agreement rate over the last 100 evaluations per ticker, stored in Redis for dashboard consumption.
+5. THE Delta_Analyzer SHALL emit a `DeltaResult` containing: agreement (bool), confidence_delta (float), heuristic_verdict (string), probabilistic_verdict (string), disagreement_reasons (list of strings), and rolling_agreement_rate (float).
+6. WHEN the rolling agreement rate drops below 0.50 for a ticker, THE Delta_Analyzer SHALL log a warning indicating persistent pipeline disagreement for operator review.
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 10: Output Formatter — Structured SignalOutput Contract
+
+**User Story:** As a downstream system consumer, I want the signal engine to emit a structured `SignalOutput` contract, so that the trading engine, delta analysis dashboard, and audit systems can consume a consistent output format.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Output_Formatter SHALL produce a `SignalOutput` containing: ticker (string), timestamp (datetime), price (float), heuristic section (verdict, confidence, S_total), probabilistic section (verdict, P_up, entropy, EV_R), delta section (agreement, confidence_delta, disagreement_reasons), and optional trade_plan section.
+2. WHEN the heuristic pipeline produces a BUY verdict, THE Output_Formatter SHALL populate the trade_plan section with entry_price, stop_loss, target_1, target_2, and position_size derived from the heuristic confidence and existing position sizing logic.
+3. WHEN the probabilistic pipeline produces a BUY verdict but the heuristic pipeline does not, THE Output_Formatter SHALL populate the trade_plan section with a "probabilistic_only" flag and reduced position sizing (50% of standard).
+4. WHEN both pipelines produce a BUY verdict, THE Output_Formatter SHALL populate the trade_plan section with full position sizing and a "dual_confirmed" flag.
+5. THE Output_Formatter SHALL serialize the `SignalOutput` as a Pydantic model with JSON serialization support for Redis queue publishing and database persistence.
+6. FOR ALL valid pipeline results, THE Output_Formatter SHALL produce a `SignalOutput` that round-trips through JSON serialization and deserialization without data loss (parse(format(output)) produces an equivalent object).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 11: Dual Pipeline Orchestration
+
+**User Story:** As a signal engine operator, I want both pipelines to run concurrently per evaluation tick sharing the same inputs, so that the system produces independent verdicts without redundant data fetching.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. WHEN an evaluation tick is triggered, THE Signal_Engine SHALL execute the Input_Normalizer once, then pass the resulting `NormalizedInput` to the Hard_Filter_Engine, then (if not filtered) execute both the Heuristic_Pipeline and Probabilistic_Pipeline concurrently using `asyncio.gather`.
+2. THE Signal_Engine SHALL enforce that both pipelines receive identical `NormalizedInput` references (no independent data fetches that could produce different snapshots).
+3. WHEN either pipeline raises an exception during evaluation, THE Signal_Engine SHALL catch the exception, log the error with full traceback, and produce a SKIP verdict for the failed pipeline with reason "pipeline_error" while allowing the other pipeline to complete normally.
+4. THE Signal_Engine SHALL measure and log the wall-clock execution time of each pipeline per tick for performance monitoring.
+5. THE Signal_Engine SHALL publish the assembled `SignalOutput` to the existing Redis queue (`stonks:queue:trading_decisions`) for consumption by the trading engine.
+6. THE Signal_Engine SHALL persist each `SignalOutput` to a database table for historical analysis and audit.
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 12: Integration with Existing Trading Engine
+
+**User Story:** As a platform operator, I want the dual-pipeline signal engine to integrate with the existing trading engine, so that the trading engine can consume `SignalOutput` verdicts and make execution decisions.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Signal_Engine SHALL publish `SignalOutput` to the existing `stonks:queue:trading_decisions` Redis queue in a format compatible with the existing `TradingEngine.evaluate_recommendation` interface.
+2. THE Signal_Engine SHALL map the `SignalOutput` trade_plan to the existing `Recommendation` schema fields (action, confidence, position_sizing) so that the trading engine can process dual-pipeline outputs without modification to its core evaluation logic.
+3. WHEN the `SignalOutput` has a "dual_confirmed" flag, THE Signal_Engine SHALL set the recommendation confidence to the maximum of heuristic_confidence and probabilistic_P_up.
+4. WHEN the `SignalOutput` has a "probabilistic_only" flag, THE Signal_Engine SHALL set the recommendation confidence to `probabilistic_P_up · 0.8` (20% confidence haircut for single-pipeline confirmation).
+5. WHEN neither pipeline produces a BUY verdict, THE Signal_Engine SHALL not publish a trading recommendation to the queue (WATCH and SKIP verdicts are persisted for analysis but not forwarded to the trading engine).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 13: Configuration and Feature Flags
+
+**User Story:** As a platform operator, I want the dual-pipeline engine configurable via the existing `risk_configs` table and environment variables, so that I can tune thresholds, enable/disable individual pipelines, and adjust timeframe weights without code changes.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Signal_Engine SHALL support a `dual_pipeline_enabled` feature flag in `risk_configs` that toggles the entire dual-pipeline engine on or off, defaulting to false for safe rollout.
+2. THE Signal_Engine SHALL support independent enable/disable flags for each pipeline: `heuristic_pipeline_enabled` and `probabilistic_pipeline_enabled`, both defaulting to true when the dual-pipeline engine is enabled.
+3. THE Signal_Engine SHALL support configurable timeframe weights via a `timeframe_weights` JSON object in `risk_configs`, defaulting to `{"M30": 0.03, "H1": 0.07, "H4": 0.15, "D": 0.30, "W": 0.30, "M": 0.15}`.
+4. THE Signal_Engine SHALL support configurable hard filter thresholds: `hard_filter_valuation_min` (default 0.3), `hard_filter_earnings_days` (default 5), and `hard_filter_macro_bias_skip` (default -1.0).
+5. THE Signal_Engine SHALL support configurable verdict thresholds for both pipelines via `risk_configs` JSON, including heuristic confidence thresholds (BUY: 0.70, WATCH: 0.55) and probabilistic thresholds (P_up: 0.60, entropy: 0.90, EV_R: 1.5).
+6. IF the `dual_pipeline_enabled` flag fails to read from the database, THEN THE Signal_Engine SHALL default to disabled (fail-safe behavior) and log a warning.
+7. THE Signal_Engine SHALL log the active configuration at startup and on each configuration change for auditability.
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 14: Regime-Based Prior Engine
+
+**User Story:** As a quantitative analyst, I want the probabilistic pipeline's prior probability to adapt based on the current market regime, so that the Bayesian inference starts from a regime-appropriate baseline rather than a fixed 0.50.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL use the existing `classify_regime` function from `services/aggregation/regime.py` to determine the current market regime for each ticker.
+2. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL map regime classifications to prior probabilities: trend_following with positive trend_indicator → 0.58 (bull), trend_following with negative trend_indicator → 0.42 (bear), mean_reversion → 0.50 (range), panic → 0.42 (bear), uncertainty → 0.50 (range).
+3. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL convert the regime prior to log-odds before accumulating likelihood ratios: `logit(P_prior) = log(P_prior / (1 - P_prior))`.
+4. WHEN market data is insufficient for regime classification (fewer than 100 days of price history), THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL use the uncertainty prior of 0.50.
+5. THE Probabilistic_Pipeline SHALL record the regime classification and prior probability in the `ProbabilisticResult` for auditability.
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 15: Database Schema for Signal Engine Output
+
+**User Story:** As a platform operator, I want signal engine outputs persisted to a dedicated database table, so that historical evaluations are available for analysis, backtesting, and audit.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE Signal_Engine SHALL persist each `SignalOutput` to a `signal_engine_outputs` table with columns for: id (UUID primary key), ticker (text), evaluated_at (timestamptz), price (numeric), heuristic_verdict (text), heuristic_confidence (numeric), heuristic_s_total (numeric), probabilistic_verdict (text), probabilistic_p_up (numeric), probabilistic_entropy (numeric), probabilistic_ev_r (numeric), delta_agreement (boolean), delta_confidence_delta (numeric), delta_reasons (JSONB), trade_plan (JSONB), full_output (JSONB), created_at (timestamptz).
+2. THE Signal_Engine SHALL create an index on `(ticker, evaluated_at)` for efficient time-range queries per ticker.
+3. THE Signal_Engine SHALL create an index on `evaluated_at` for efficient global time-range queries.
+4. WHEN persisting fails due to a database error, THE Signal_Engine SHALL log the error and continue processing (persistence failure does not block signal emission to the trading queue).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 16: Backward Compatibility and Migration Path
+
+**User Story:** As a platform operator, I want the dual-pipeline engine to coexist with the existing single-pipeline aggregation, so that the rollout is incremental and reversible.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. WHEN `dual_pipeline_enabled` is false, THE Signal_Engine SHALL not run, and the existing aggregation pipeline SHALL continue to operate unchanged.
+2. WHEN `dual_pipeline_enabled` is true, THE Signal_Engine SHALL run alongside the existing aggregation pipeline, with the trading engine consuming `SignalOutput` from the dual-pipeline engine instead of `Recommendation` from the existing recommendation worker.
+3. THE Signal_Engine SHALL reuse the existing `WeightedSignal`, `BayesianPosterior`, `RegimeClassification`, and `TrendSummary` data structures from `services/aggregation/` rather than duplicating them.
+4. THE Signal_Engine SHALL reuse the existing `compute_signal_weight`, `compute_bayesian_posterior`, and `classify_regime` functions rather than reimplementing the underlying math.
+5. THE Signal_Engine SHALL add the new `signal_engine_outputs` table via a new database migration without modifying existing tables.
+6. THE Signal_Engine SHALL support running in "shadow mode" where both the existing pipeline and the dual-pipeline engine run, but only the existing pipeline's output is forwarded to the trading engine (dual-pipeline output is persisted for comparison only).
+
+---
+
+### Requirement 17: Property-Based Testing for Dual-Pipeline Correctness
+
+**User Story:** As a developer, I want comprehensive property-based tests validating the mathematical correctness and structural invariants of the dual-pipeline engine, so that edge cases and numerical stability issues are caught before deployment.
+
+#### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. THE test suite SHALL include property-based tests for the Fibonacci retracement formula verifying that `L(r) = SH - r·(SH - SL)` produces values in [SL, SH] for all r in [0, 1] and all SH > SL > 0.
+2. THE test suite SHALL include property-based tests for the Bayesian log-odds update verifying that `logit(P_post) = logit(P_prior) + Σ log(LR_i)` round-trips correctly: converting P_prior to logit, adding log-LRs, and converting back via sigmoid produces a valid probability in (0, 1).
+3. THE test suite SHALL include property-based tests for the entropy gate verifying that Shannon entropy is maximized at P_up = 0.5 and equals 0.0 at P_up = 0.0 or P_up = 1.0, and is symmetric around 0.5.
+4. THE test suite SHALL include property-based tests for the signal correlation penalty verifying that the penalized posterior is always less than or equal to the unpenalized posterior for any signal set with correlated signals.
+5. THE test suite SHALL include property-based tests for the multi-timeframe confluence score verifying monotonicity: activating a signal on an additional timeframe with non-zero weight always increases or maintains the confluence score.
+6. THE test suite SHALL include property-based tests for the `SignalOutput` contract verifying round-trip serialization: `SignalOutput.model_validate_json(output.model_dump_json())` produces an equivalent object for all valid outputs.
+7. THE test suite SHALL include property-based tests for the hard filter engine verifying that macro_bias = -1.0 always produces SKIP, valuation_score < 0.3 always produces SKIP, and earnings_proximity_days <= 5 always produces SKIP, regardless of all other input values.
+8. THE test suite SHALL include property-based tests for the EV_R calculation verifying that `EV_R = P_up · E[win_R] - (1 - P_up) · 1.0` is monotonically increasing with P_up for fixed E[win_R] > 0.

+## LLM Provider Abstraction
+
+All three agents support both **Ollama** and **vLLM** as inference providers. The provider is determined by the `model_provider` field in the agent config (or active variant).
+
+**Module:** `services/extractor/llm_factory.py`
+
+The `build_llm_client()` factory function routes to the correct client:
+
+| `model_provider` value | Client class | API endpoint |
+|------------------------|-------------|--------------|
+| `ollama` (default), `""`, `None` | `OllamaClient` (`services/extractor/client.py`) | `{OLLAMA_BASE_URL}/api/chat` |
+| `vllm` | `VLLMClient` (`services/extractor/vllm_client.py`) | `{VLLM_BASE_URL}/v1/chat/completions` (OpenAI-compatible) |
+| Unknown value | `OllamaClient` (with warning log) | Falls back to Ollama |
+
+Both clients implement the `LLMClient` protocol (`services/shared/llm_protocol.py`), providing `call_llm()` and `close()` methods.
+
+**Provider switching at runtime:** When a variant changes the `model_provider`, the extractor worker detects this during its periodic config refresh (every 100 jobs) and creates a new client instance. The old client is closed gracefully. A safety guard prevents switching to Ollama if `OLLAMA_BASE_URL` is empty.
+
+**vLLM health check:** At startup, if the resolved provider is `vllm`, the extractor runs a health check against the vLLM endpoint. If it fails, the worker falls back to Ollama automatically.

+The recommendation worker consumes from the recommendation queue. The trading engine does **not** consume from a queue — it polls the `recommendations` table in PostgreSQL on a configurable interval, evaluates each recommendation through its decision pipeline, and pushes "act" decisions to the broker queue.

+## Pipeline Toggle
+
+The pipeline can be paused globally via the Redis key `stonks:pipeline:enabled`. When set to `"0"`, all queue workers (ingestion, parser, extractor, aggregation, recommendation, broker adapter, lake publisher) enter a sleep loop and stop processing jobs. The scheduler also skips scheduling cycles when the toggle is off. The toggle can be set via the Query API's pipeline control endpoints.
+
+Setting `PIPELINE_DEFAULT_OFF=true` on the scheduler initializes the toggle to OFF on first boot, useful for staged deployments where you want to verify infrastructure before enabling the pipeline.

+"""Elliott Wave signal evaluator.
+
+Detects Elliott Wave patterns — impulse waves (5-wave structure) and
+corrective waves (3-wave structure) — using a simplified zigzag pivot
+filter.  Produces a signal with the current wave position and projected
+direction.
+
+Wave detection algorithm (simplified):
+1. Find significant pivot points (local highs and lows) using a zigzag
+   filter that identifies reversals of at least X% of the price range.
+2. Count alternating pivots to identify wave structure.
+3. Five alternating pivots = impulse wave (bullish if trending up,
+   bearish if trending down).
+4. Three alternating pivots after an impulse = corrective wave.
+
+Signal logic:
+- Impulse wave 3 or 5: strong signal in the trend direction.
+- Corrective wave (A, B, C): signal in the opposite direction
+  (anticipating next impulse).
+- Ambiguous wave count: return ``None``.
