RedK Volume-Weighted Directional Efficiency Index (DXF) is a momentum indicator - that builds on Kaufman's Efficiency Ratio (ER) concept. DXF utilizes a restricted +100/-100 oscillator to represent the "quality" of a trend, and does a good job in detecting the possibility of an upcoming trend change (in both direction and quality), improving our ability to make...
This is an indicator based on the Efficiency Ratio by Perry Kaufman. Like Price Density, which we have published previously, Perry Kaufman's Efficiency Ratio is a quantifiable method of measuring market noise. This version of the indicator includes a feature to make the values of the indicator change based on thresholds to easier visualize different market...
Introduction Using conditions in filters is a way to make them adapt to those, i already used this methodology in one of my proposed indicators ARMA which gave a really promising adaptive filter, ARMA tried to have a flat response when dealing with ranging market while following the price when the market where trending or exhibiting volatile movements, the...
Introduction The ability the Kaufman adaptive moving average (KAMA) has to be flat during ranging markets and close to the price during trending markets is what make this moving average one of the most useful in technical analysis. KAMA is calculated by using exponential averaging using the efficiency ratio (ER) as smoothing variable where 1 > ER > 0 . An...
Introduction Bands are quite efficient in technical analysis, they can provide support and resistance levels, provide breakouts points, trailing stop loss/take profits positions and can show the current market volatility to the user. Most of the time bands are made from a central tendency estimator like a moving average plus/minus a volatility indicator....
Introduction The ability to adapt to possible markets states is important in technical analysis, this is why making adaptive indicator might help get better results. I propose a trailing stop indicator using recursion that can adapt to the efficiency ratio. I have added alerts since it's a often requested feature. The Indicator Its quite classical, bands are...
.. chameleon 🎵 Uses Kaufmann's Efficiency Ratio to generate adaptive inputs for Ehler's MAMA/FAMA. Alphas from the Hilbert transform are then used in place for the KAMA calculation.

More Efficiency Based on the Auto-Line code, the Efficient Auto Line aim to provide a more controlled adaptivity of the indicator. The first indicator of this sort worked this way : when the absolute difference between the price and the indicator is higher than the previous indicator +/- A pips of amplitude, the indicator will display the closing price, else...
Display a smoothed true range during trending markets, thus filtering any measurement occurring during ranging markets. Whether the market is trending or ranging is determined by the position of the efficiency ratio relative to its Wilder moving average. Settings Resolution : resolution of the indicator Length : period of the efficiency ratio and the...
Introduction The trend-step indicator (or auto-line) was based on volatility and aimed to spot trends in an adaptive way, however the indicator was only based on volatility and didn't gave much attention to the trend, later on i would publish an efficient version of it (efficient auto-line) based on the efficiency ratio who could adapt to the trend and...
Introduction The efficient trend-step indicator is a trend indicator that make use of the efficiency ratio in order to adapt to the market trend strength, this indicator originally aimed to remain static during ranging states while fitting the price only when large variations occur. The trend step indicator family unlike most moving averages has a boxy...
This is a version 3 of my mod of the script by alexgrover - Efficient Trend Step. The logic is based on calculation of Kaufman's efficiency ratio (ER): ER = Direction / Volatility where: Direction = ABS (Close – Close ) Volatility = n ∑(ABS(Close – Close )) n = The efficiency ratio period. This version features volatility and volume filter and custom...
@ChartArt got my attention to this idea. This type of moving average was originally developed by Michael R. Bryant (Adaptrade Software newsletter, April 2014). Mr. Bryant suggested a new approach, so called Variable Efficiency Ratio (VER), to obtain adaptive behaviour for the moving average. This approach is based on Perry Kaufman' idea with Efficiency Ratio...
Introduction It is possible to use a wide variety of filters for the estimation of a least squares moving average, one of the them being the Kaufman adaptive moving average (KAMA) which adapt to the market trend strength, by using KAMA in an lsma we therefore allow for an adaptive low lag filter which might provide a smarter way to remove noise while preserving...
Adaptive Oscillators use the same principle as Adaptive Moving Averages. This is an experiment to separate length generation from oscillators, offering multiple alternatives to be combined. Some of the combinations are widely known, some are not. Note that all Oscillators here are normalized to -1..1 range. This indicator is based on my previously published public...
A way to see whether RSI is overbought or oversold inside its Bollinger Bands in the form of an oscillator. Z-score tells you how far the data is from the mean in terms of standard deviations. The numbers shown in the indicator are the number of standard deviations away from the average or mean. Like Bollinger Bands, if it is above the standard deviation border...
The efficiency ratio (ER) is described by Perry Kaufman in his book, Trading Systems and Methods. It works by measuring the momentum of the market, that is, the absolute change from the current price to a past price, and divides it by the volatility, which is the sum of the absolute changes of each bar. That makes this a bounded indicator, going from 0 to 100,...
Trading The Movements That Matters Inspired by the Price Volume Trend indicator the Efficient Price aim to create a better version of the price containing only the information a trend trader must need. Calculation This indicator use the Efficiency Ratio as a smoothing constant, it is calculated as follow : ER =...
