Consistency Score Var-Index
Measure player reliability using coefficient of variation. Identify safe floors vs. high ceilings for smarter lineup and trade decisions.
1. Player & Weekly Scores
Enter at least 3 weeks for meaningful results. Example: 18.5, 22.3, 15.1
What is Var-Index? The coefficient of variation (CV) measures how spread out weekly scores are relative to the average. Lower CV = more consistent (safe floor), higher CV = more volatile (high ceiling).

What Is the Var-Index Consistency Score?
The Var-Index (Coefficient of Variation) measures how consistent a player's weekly fantasy scores are relative to their average. It's the most reliable way to identify:
- ๐ Safe Floor Players: Low Var-Index (under 15%) โ reliable weekly production
- ๐ฒ High Ceiling Players: High Var-Index (over 25%) โ boom-or-bust potential
- โ๏ธ Balanced Players: Moderate Var-Index (15-25%) โ steady with occasional spikes

How the Var-Index Is Calculated
๐ Formula
Var-Index = (Standard Deviation รท Mean) ร 100
Where Standard Deviation measures how spread out scores are from the average.
๐ Worked Example
Scores: 18.5, 22.3, 15.1, 28.7, 12.4, 19.8, 16.2, 24.1
Mean: 19.6 PPG
Std Dev: 2.4
Var-Index: (2.4 รท 19.6) ร 100 = 12.4% โ ROCK SOLID
