• Cause: ADX and expected duration features exceed [-5, +5] range during initialization
• Impact: Negligible (only first 5 bars affected, <1% of data)
• Recommendation: Acceptable for production, as normalization stabilizes after warm-up period

2. Compilation Warnings (73 warnings)

• Cause: Unused crate dependencies in test file
• Impact: None (warnings only, zero errors)
• Recommendation: Clean up unused imports in wave_d_e2e_es_fut_225_features_test.rs

✅ Zero Critical Failures

• Compilation Errors: 0
• Test Failures: 0/4 (100% pass rate)
• Panics/Crashes: 0
• Data Integrity Issues: 0
