What kind of algorithm does this MCP use?

It uses a state-machine-based ZigZag algorithm to identify market turning points.

How do I define what counts as a swing point?

You use the detect_swing_pivots capability and provide a custom deviation percentage to set the threshold.

Can this MCP identify Elliott Wave patterns?

Yes, the interpret_market_structure capability provides hints on whether sequences resemble impulse or corrective waves.

What AI clients can I use with this?

You can use any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

Does this MCP host the data?

Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP, so you don't need to set up your own environment to run these capabilities.

How does the deviation percentage work?

The deviation percentage is the minimum price movement required to confirm a change in direction. A new pivot is only confirmed when the price reverses by this percentage from the previous pivot.

Can I identify Elliott Wave patterns?

Yes, by using the interpret_market_structure capability, you can receive hints on whether the current sequence of pivots resembles an impulse or a corrective wave.

What information is included in the swing metrics?

The analyze_swing_metrics capability provides the amplitude (percentage change) and the bar duration (time elapsed) between consecutive confirmed pivots.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Curated set · 3 capabilities

Capability set01 / 01

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through ZigZag Indicator Calculator.

01
Detect swing pivots
This capability finds all confirmed high and low pivot points in a price series using a set deviation threshold.
02
Interpret market structure
This capability provides high-level hints on whether a sequence of pivots follows impulse or corrective wave patterns.
03
Analyze swing metrics
This capability calculates the specific amplitude and duration of price movements between detected pivots.

Real work

What teams actually run

Automated Chart Cleaning

Your agent uses the deviation threshold to filter out minor price fluctuations and focus on major trends.

Trend Strength Assessment

You use swing metrics to measure how aggressive a price move is relative to its duration.

Wave Pattern Identification

The AI analyzes pivot sequences to suggest if the market is in an impulse or corrective phase.

Backtesting Logic

You feed historical price data into the MCP to verify how specific pivot points would have appeared.

One connector, every AI

ZigZag Indicator Calculator works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put ZigZag Indicator Calculator to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.
