NOIZ is a geometric Brownian motion with drift mu = 0 and annual volatility 0.45. Ticks arrive as a Poisson process. This server is the origin. The walk continues across restarts from a saved RNG state.

History is backfilled as one-minute bars, then rolled to 2m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, and 1d. Live ticks write the current minute and the higher bars. Ticks are kept for 14 days. Bars are kept.
