LogReturn

The log return of a pair's closes over window candles (the lag, default 1): ln(close / close N candles ago).

  • Indicator: lib's Returns.LogReturn over the closes (as double), wrapped in WarmUp.
  • Warm-up: until N + 1 candles are seen there is no return. The changed event carries { "value": null }, and the same is saved, instead of an error.
  • Value: { "value": 0.000412 }, a natural log, unitless.
