Implementation Reference
- src/mcp_talib/core/server.py:236-249 (handler)MCP tool handler function for calculate_mavp that delegates to the mavp indicator from the registry.@mcp.tool() async def calculate_mavp(close: List[float], periods: Optional[float] = None, minperiod: int = 2, maxperiod: int = 30) -> Dict[str, Any]: try: indicator = registry.get_indicator("mavp") if not indicator: raise ValueError("MAVP indicator not found") market_data = MarketData(close=close) opts = {"periods": periods, "minperiod": minperiod, "maxperiod": maxperiod} result = await indicator.calculate(market_data, opts) if result.success: return {"success": True, "values": result.values, "metadata": result.metadata} return {"success": False, "error": result.error_message} except Exception as e: return {"success": False, "error": str(e)}

- Core implementation of MAVP calculation using TA-Lib's MAVP function, handling variable periods and error cases.async def calculate(self, market_data: MarketData, options: Dict[str, Any] = None) -> IndicatorResult: if options is None: options = {} close = np.asarray(market_data.close, dtype=float) periods = options.get("periods", None) minperiod = options.get("minperiod", 2) maxperiod = options.get("maxperiod", 30) try: # Enforce a single float `periods` to match the type expectations # in the type stubs (`_ta_lib.pyi`).
