All Implemented Interfaces:
Resettable, RTIndicator

public class EfficiencyRatioRTIndicator extends AbstractRTIndicator
Kaufman Efficiency Ratio (ER) indicator with O(1) per-tick computation.
  direction  = |close - close[n]|
  volatility = sum(|close[i] - close[i-1]|, n)
  ER = direction / volatility

Range: 0 (pure noise) to 1 (perfect trend). Uses a rolling sum accumulator for O(1) volatility tracking.

      Description copied from interface: RTIndicator
      Returns whether this indicator has received enough data to produce meaningful values.

      During the warmup period, RTIndicator.getValue() may return 0 or a partial estimate that should not be used for trading decisions. Once this method returns true, the indicator's output is statistically valid.

      The default implementation returns true for backward compatibility. Indicators with warmup requirements should override this method.

      For composite indicators (e.g. Bollinger Bands, MACD), readiness is determined by the slowest internal component.

      Returns:
      true if the indicator has completed its warmup period
