/// Efficiency Ratio (ER) — measures how directionally price is moving.
///
/// ```text
/// direction = |close_t − close_{t−period}|
/// path      = Σ |close_i − close_{i−1}|  (sum of bar-to-bar changes over period)
/// ER        = direction / path
/// ```
///
/// Values near 1.0 indicate strongly trending; near 0 indicate choppy/random.
/// Returns 0 when path is zero (flat market).
///
/// Returns [`SignalValue::Unavailable`] until `period + 1` bars have been seen.
///
/// # Example
/// ```rust
/// use fin_primitives::signals::indicators::EfficiencyRatio;
/// use fin_primitives::signals::Signal;
///
/// let er = EfficiencyRatio::new("er", 10).unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(er.period(), 10);
/// ```
