⚡ Kaufman Efficiency Ratio (KER)

Trend clarity, quantified.

The Kaufman Efficiency Ratio (KER) is a precision tool for measuring how efficiently price moves from point A to B—without getting lost in the noise. Whether you're validating breakout conditions or filtering sideways chop, KER gives you a clean score between 0 and 1 that reflects directional intent versus volatility.

🔍 What It Does

  • Calculates Kaufman’s Efficiency Ratio:
  • Outputs a normalized value from 0 (pure noise) to 1 (perfect trend)
  • Highlights trending vs. non-trending regimes with zero ambiguity
  • Ideal for adaptive overlays, regime filters, and signal gating

🛠️ Key Features

  • Modular input manager for multi-timeframe sourcing
  • Cross-asset compatible: FX, crypto, indices, equities
  • Lightweight, real-time logic with no smoothing lag
  • Plug-and-play with your existing suite architecture

🎯 Use Cases

  • Trend Validation: Confirm directional bias before signal execution
  • Noise Filtering: Suppress entries during inefficient price action
  • Regime Detection: Pair with volatility-aware overlays for smarter transitions
  • Strategy Building: Use as a core metric in breakout, momentum, or bias logic

💡 Bonus

KER is free, fast, and ruthlessly efficient—just like your code. No fluff, no filters. Just raw market intent, distilled.
