+# Forecasting Project Data Layout
+
+This project is organized for research-first use.
+
+## Folder map
+
+- `Data/raw/minute/`
+  - Original minute OHLCV source files for NIFTY 50, NIFTY BANK, INDIA VIX, HDFCBANK, RELIANCE, WIPRO, and KOTAKBANK.
+- `Data/processed/bars/`
+  - Clean OHLCV bars at `1m`, `5m`, `1h`, `4h`, and `1d`.
+- `Data/processed/features/`
+  - Per-asset feature sets for each timeframe.
+- `Data/processed/panels/`
+  - Multi-asset aligned panels plus the daily master panel.
+- `Data/metadata/`
+  - `manifest.csv`, `feature_dictionary.csv`, `layout.json`, and this note.
+
+## Feature design notes
+
+- Price features include returns, log returns, candle body/range, ATR, RSI, MACD, Bollinger z-score, moving-average-relative levels, and next-bar targets.
+- The supplied index minute files have zero volume throughout, so the pipeline suppresses volume features and adds `volume_all_zero` instead.
+- Intraday bars are grouped inside each observed trading session to avoid overnight contamination.
+
+## High-value outputs
+
+- `Data/processed/panels/1m_market_panel.csv`
