Definitions
In plain terms
Equality with the band retains the prior state under the declared strict-crossing convention.
Technical
The state machine freezes initial direction, active-band identity, comparison strictness, current close timing, final-band update order, and published line.
Scope
A direction flip is an indicator transition and not proof of a durable market reversal.
Examples
