4.0 - 1.0 Implement strategy engine foundation with modular components

- Introduced a new `strategies` package containing the core structure for trading strategies, including `BaseStrategy`, `StrategyFactory`, and various strategy implementations (EMA, RSI, MACD).
- Added utility functions for signal detection and validation in `strategies/utils.py`, enhancing modularity and maintainability.
- Updated `pyproject.toml` to include the new `strategies` package in the build configuration.
- Implemented comprehensive unit tests for the strategy foundation components, ensuring reliability and adherence to project standards.

These changes establish a solid foundation for the strategy engine, aligning with project goals for modularity, performance, and maintainability.

 - **Layered Chart Integration**: Strategy signals and performance visualizations will be integrated into the dashboard as a new chart layer, utilizing the existing modular chart system.
 - **Comprehensive Testing**: Ensure that all new classes, functions, and modules within the strategy engine have corresponding unit tests placed in the `tests/strategies/` directory, following established testing conventions.
 
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Vectorized vs. Iterative Calculation
+- **Decision**: Refactored strategy signal detection to use vectorized Pandas operations (e.g., `shift()`, boolean indexing) instead of iterative Python loops.
+- **Reasoning**: Significantly improves performance for signal generation, especially with large datasets, while maintaining identical results as verified by dedicated tests.
+- **Impact**: All core strategy implementations (EMA Crossover, RSI, MACD) now leverage vectorized functions for their primary signal detection logic.
+
+### 2. Indicator Key Generation Consistency
+- **Decision**: Centralized the `_create_indicator_key` logic into a shared utility function `create_indicator_key()` in `strategies/utils.py`.
+- **Reasoning**: Eliminates code duplication in `StrategyFactory` and individual strategy implementations, ensuring consistent key generation and easier maintenance if indicator naming conventions change.
+- **Impact**: `StrategyFactory` and all strategy implementations now use this shared utility for generating unique indicator keys.
