get_technical_indicators

Read-onlyIdempotent

Technical analysis for a crypto futures symbol. 19 indicators: RSI, MACD, EMA, SMA, Bollinger Bands, ATR, ADX (+DI/−DI), Stochastic, OBV (with price divergence), VWAP, CCI, MFI, Williams %R, ROC, SuperTrend, Ichimoku, Keltner Channels, classic pivot points and swing support/resistance levels. Every indicator returns its current value, the previous bar, a rising/falling/flat direction, a short series history and — where it applies — zones and crossovers. EMA/SMA accept several periods at once (default 20/50/200); every period is overridable via periods. Pass intervals (up to 3) to get 1h/4h/1d in ONE call with a multi-timeframe confluence verdict. Each timeframe also carries a summary (bias, trend, momentum, volatility, volume, plain-language notes) computed from a fixed indicator set — quote its notes rather than the raw score. For several coins pass symbols (up to 3) instead of one call per coin: ONE call and one quota unit, one entry per symbol in data.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
symbolNoTrading pair symbol, e.g. BTCUSDT. For several pairs pass `symbols` instead.
historyNoPrior values returned per indicator as `series` (oldest → newest, length history + 1). 0 = latest only.
periodsNoOptional period overrides, e.g. {"ema":[9,21,55,200],"rsi":7}
symbolsNoUp to 3 trading pairs in ONE call (one quota unit), e.g. ["BTCUSDT","ETHUSDT","SOLUSDT"]. The response then carries one entry per symbol in `data`, each shaped like the single-symbol response.
intervalNoCandle timeframe. Ignored when `intervals` is given.1h
intervalsNoUp to 3 timeframes in ONE call (one quota unit), e.g. ["1h","4h","1d"]. The response then carries per-timeframe results plus a `confluence` verdict.
indicatorsNoIndicators to compute. `levels` = swing support/resistance from price structure, `pivots` = classic floor pivots from the previous day.

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
tipNoRare: one sentence about a TraderSpy feature this connector cannot do, with the page it leads to
urlNoThe coin's chart on traderspy.app (a single-symbol answer; each `data` entry carries its own)
dataNoPresent when `symbols` was passed, and then the only place the results are: one entry per symbol, in the requested order, each exactly the single-symbol response above ({ symbol, interval, price, candles, indicators + summary or timeframes + confluence, settings, warnings }) — or { symbol, error: "no_data", message } when no candles are stored for it.
countNoEntries in `data`
priceNoLatest close on the primary timeframe, or null when no candles are stored
symbolNo
candlesNoClosed candles the primary timeframe was computed on
summaryNoSingle-timeframe call only: bias, score, trend, momentum, volatility, volume, notes[]. Omitted when `timeframes` is present.
intervalNoPrimary timeframe (the first requested one)
settingsNoEcho of what was computed: indicators, history, resolved periods
warningsNo
confluenceNoMulti-timeframe agreement: { aligned, bias, byInterval }
indicatorsNoSingle-timeframe call only: requested indicators keyed by name. Each carries value, previous, direction, series and indicator-specific fields (zone, crossover, stack, levels…); { value: null, reason: "insufficient_data" } when the tape is too short. Omitted when `timeframes` is present — read them there.
timeframesNoPresent when several intervals were requested: one { interval, price, candles, indicators, summary } per timeframe, in the requested order. The top-level indicators/summary are omitted in that case.
lastCandleOpenTimeNo

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already establish read-only, idempotent, non-destructive behavior, and the description adds genuinely non-obvious context on top: quota-unit consumption ('ONE call and one quota unit'), the multi-timeframe `confluence` verdict, per-indicator return shape (current value, prior bar, direction, series, zones, crossovers), and the caveat that the `summary` is derived from a fixed indicator set whose notes should be quoted over the score.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Front-loaded with purpose, then capability, then batching/efficiency guidance, so an agent can stop reading early. The 19-indicator enumeration is somewhat redundant with the `indicators` enum and lengthens the block, but it aids capability discovery without opening the schema.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a 7-parameter, nested-schema tool with an output schema present, the description covers everything an agent needs: what is computed, how to batch symbols and timeframes, quota implications, and how to interpret the summary. Return-value structure is delegated appropriately to the output schema.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so the 3 baseline applies, but the description adds real semantics beyond it: which indicators accept multiple periods at once (EMA/SMA, default 20/50/200), that every period is overridable via `periods`, and the batching behavior of `intervals`/`symbols` (up to 3 each, one quota unit, per-symbol/per-timeframe entries in `data`).

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Opens with a specific verb+resource ('Technical analysis for a crypto futures symbol') and immediately enumerates the 19 computed indicators, which cleanly separates it from siblings like get_candles (raw OHLC) and get_signals (trade signals). An agent can tell what this returns without opening the schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives strong operational guidance: use `symbols` instead of one call per coin, use `intervals` instead of separate calls, and quote the `summary` notes rather than the raw score. It never explicitly routes the agent against tool-level siblings (get_candles, get_signals), so it stops short of the explicit when/when-not/alternatives bar for a 5.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
