"""Elder's Force Index (EFI)
Elder's Force Index measures the power behind a price movement using price
and volume as well as potential reversals and price corrections.

Calculation:
Default Inputs:
length=20, drift=1, mamode=None
EMA = Exponential Moving Average
SMA = Simple Moving Average
pv_diff = close.diff(drift) * volume
if mamode == 'sma':
EFI = SMA(pv_diff, length)
else:
EFI = EMA(pv_diff, length)
Args:
close (pd.Series): Series of 'close's
volume (pd.Series): Series of 'volume's
length (int): The short period. Default: 13
drift (int): The diff period. Default: 1
mamode (str): See ```help(ta.ma)```. Default: 'ema'
offset (int): How many periods to offset the result. Default: 0
Kwargs:
fillna (value, optional): pd.DataFrame.fillna(value)
fill_method (value, optional): Type of fill method
Returns:
pd.Series: New feature generated.
