## Description

Technical analysis often feels like a manual grind of staring at charts and calculating indicators by hand. This MCP changes that by giving your AI agent the ability to run deterministic Parabolic SAR calculations instantly. Instead of you manually checking every price pivot, your agent can scan through price data to find exactly where a trend shifts or where a stop-loss should sit. You can adjust acceleration factors to fine-tune how sensitive the indicator is to recent price movements. Whether you need a full sequence of trend data for a backtest or just a quick snapshot of the current market direction, this tool handles the math. By connecting through Vinkius, you get a direct line between your favorite coding or chat interface and these precise financial calculations, turning your agent into a capable technical analyst that doesn't miss a single reversal.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Can you check the trend for these prices? Highs: [105, 107, 106, 108], Lows: [100, 102, 101, 103]
```

**Response:** 
```
Based on the data provided, the current market state is an **uptrend**. 

| Metric | Value |
| :--- | :--- |
| **Current Trend** | Up |
| **Last SAR Value** | 101.5 |
| **Last Extreme Point** | 108 |
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Find where the trend reversed in this data: Highs [50, 55, 52, 48, 45], Lows [45, 50, 48, 44, 40]
```

**Response:** 
```
A trend reversal was detected in your data:

* **Reversal Type:** Up to Down
* **Occurrence:** Index 2
* **Price at Reversal:** 52

The trend shifted from bullish to bearish at this point.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Give me the full SAR sequence for these prices: Highs [10, 12, 13, 11], Lows [9, 10, 11, 10]
```

**Response:** 
```
Here is the complete Parabolic SAR sequence for the provided price data:

| Index | SAR Value | Trend Direction |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| 0 | 9.0 | Up |
| 1 | 9.5 | Up |
| 2 | 10.2 | Up |
| 3 | 10.8 | Up |
```

## Capabilities

### Generate full trend sequences
Create a complete list of SAR values and trend indicators from raw price data.

### Summarize current market states
Get a high-level view of whether the current trend is up or down based on recent prices.

### Pinpoint trend reversals
Identify the exact moments when the market direction flipped from bullish to bearish or vice versa.

### Customize sensitivity
Adjust acceleration factors to change how quickly the indicator reacts to new price action.

## Use Cases

### Automated Stop-Loss Placement
A trader asks their agent to find the current SAR value for a stock to set a precise trailing stop-loss.

### Trend Reversal Alerts
A developer uses the agent to scan a list of crypto prices and flag exactly when a trend flips from up to down.

### Historical Trend Auditing
An analyst provides a month of price data and asks the agent to summarize the dominant market direction.

### Strategy Validation
A quant uses the agent to check if a specific acceleration factor would have caught a recent price breakout.

## Benefits

- Eliminate manual math by letting your agent calculate full SAR series instantly.
- Spot market pivots faster using identify_reversal_windows to find trend shifts.
- Get immediate market context with get_trend_summary for rapid decision making.
- Fine-tune indicator sensitivity by passing custom acceleration factors to the math engine.
- Backtest trend strategies more easily by generating complete historical data sequences.

## How It Works

The bottom line is that your agent does the heavy math so you can focus on the trade.

1. Provide your price data, including high and low values, to your AI client.
2. The agent uses the Parabolic SAR math to process the sequence.
3. You receive a clear breakdown of trend directions, SAR values, and reversal points.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How can I use the Parabolic SAR Calculator MCP for my trading strategy?**
You can use it to automate trend detection and stop-loss placement. Your agent can calculate precise SAR values that act as trailing stops, helping you manage risk without manual calculation.

**Can I adjust the sensitivity of the indicator in the Parabolic SAR Calculator MCP?**
Yes. You can provide custom acceleration factors to the tools, allowing you to make the trend detection more or less sensitive to recent price changes.

**Will this MCP work with my existing technical analysis workflow?**
Yes, as long as you use an MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or VS Code. It plugs directly into your agent's workflow to provide real-time math on price data.

**Does the Parabolic SAR Calculator MCP identify trend changes?**
Absolutely. It includes specific functionality to pinpoint exactly when a trend direction flips, making it easy to spot potential market reversals.

**Can I get a quick summary of a market trend using this MCP?**
Yes. You can request a high-level snapshot of the current market state, which gives you the current trend direction and the most recent SAR value.

**How do I use the SAR calculation tool?**
You can provide arrays of high and low prices to the `calculate_sar_series` tool. You may also optionally specify the starting acceleration factor, the increment, and the maximum acceleration.

**What is a trend reversal in this tool?**
A reversal is detected when the price crosses the current SAR value. The tool identifies these moments using `identify_reversal_windows`.

**Can I customize the acceleration factor?**
Yes, you can adjust the `afStart`, `afIncrement`, and `afMax` parameters to suit different market volatility profiles.
