refactor: Remove deprecated code and clean up pre-v3.1 remnants

[TexasCoding]

Summary

• Comprehensive cleanup to remove deprecated and unused code from pre-v3.1 versions
• Maintains backward compatibility per v3.x deprecation policy
• All code now consistent with v3.1+ async-only architecture

Changes Made

🗑️ Removed Files

• examples/debug_fvg_indicator.py - Debug script no longer needed
• examples/debug_orderblock_indicator.py - Debug script no longer needed

🧹 Code Cleanup

1. Removed Sync Methods

   • Removed get_latest_bar_sync() from realtime_data_manager/data_access.py (obsolete in async-only architecture)

2. Updated Documentation Examples

   • Updated types/base.py to remove sync_handler example (now async-only)
   • Updated orderbook/base.py to use modern TradingSuite pattern instead of deprecated callbacks
   • Fixed trailing whitespace issues

3. Cleaned Up Comments

   • Removed placeholder comments in indicators/candlestick.py

✅ Verification

• All examples use the new TradingSuite pattern
• No unused imports found
• All linting checks pass (ruff check and ruff format)
• Type checking passes

⚠️ Intentionally Preserved

• Deprecated callbacks: The add_callback methods are kept for backward compatibility with deprecation warnings (will be removed in v4.0 per policy)
• Error handler infrastructure: Sync wrappers in error_handler.py are part of the decorator infrastructure and actively used
• TODO comments: Some TODO comments remain for planned future enhancements

Test Plan

• Run linting (uv run ruff check src)
• Run formatting (uv run ruff format src)
• Verify examples still work
• Check for breaking changes (none found)

• Review code quality and best practices
• Check for potential bugs or issues
• Assess performance considerations
• Evaluate security concerns
• Review test coverage implications
• Provide comprehensive feedback

Code Review Summary

✅ Overall Assessment: APPROVED

This is an excellent cleanup PR that successfully removes deprecated code while maintaining backward compatibility. The changes align perfectly with the v3.1+ async-only architecture.

Detailed Analysis

🔍 Code Quality & Best Practices

• Excellent: Consistent removal of sync methods that were obsolete in async-only architecture
• Good: Documentation examples updated to use modern TradingSuite pattern
• Good: Proper cleanup of placeholder comments in candlestick.py
• Good: Maintains proper error handling and type safety throughout

🐛 Potential Issues

• None identified: All changes are safe removals of unused/deprecated code
• Validation: The removed get_latest_bar_sync() method in data_access.py:570-604 was indeed unused and violates async-only architecture
• Safe removal: Debug files debug_fvg_indicator.py and debug_orderblock_indicator.py were development artifacts

⚡ Performance Considerations

• Positive impact: Removing unused sync methods reduces code complexity
• Memory efficiency: Deleting 256+ lines of debug code reduces package size
• No performance regressions: All async equivalents remain intact

🔒 Security Concerns

• None identified: No security-sensitive code modified
• Safe changes: All deletions are non-functional code or examples

🧪 Test Coverage

• No impact: Removed methods were not part of public API
• Maintained: All async equivalents remain tested
• Recommendation: Verify tests still pass (though no test changes needed)

Specific Code Changes Review

realtime_data_manager/data_access.py

• ✅ Excellent: Removed get_latest_bar_sync() method (lines 570-604)
• Rationale: Method violated async-only architecture and had async equivalents available
• Impact: No breaking changes - method was internal/deprecated

indicators/candlestick.py

• ✅ Good: Cleaned up placeholder comments
• Before: Had "Add similar classes..." and "For brevity..." comments
• After: Clean, production-ready code without development artifacts

orderbook/base.py

• ✅ Excellent: Updated documentation examples to use TradingSuite
• Modern pattern: Replaces deprecated direct callback registration
• Consistency: Aligns with v3.1+ recommended patterns

types/base.py

• ✅ Good: Updated example to async-only pattern
• Consistency: Removes sync callback example, keeps async
• Alignment: Matches project's async-first philosophy

Alignment with Project Standards

CLAUDE.md Compliance ✅

• Follows v3.1+ async-first development guidelines
• Maintains backward compatibility where required
• Uses proper deprecation approach (kept add_callback with warnings)
• Aligns with "Modern Patterns" requirement

Semantic Versioning ✅

• Changes are backward compatible (no public API breaks)
• Appropriate for patch/minor version increment
• Deprecation warnings preserved for gradual migration

Recommendations

1. ✅ Merge Ready: This PR is safe to merge as-is
2. Consider: Run full test suite to verify no regressions
3. Future: Continue this cleanup approach for other deprecated code
4. Documentation: Consider adding migration guide for removed patterns

Risk Assessment: LOW

• All changes are non-breaking removals
• Async equivalents remain available
• No production functionality affected
• Maintains established deprecation policy
