## Why get_symbol_info_tick is rated Low

This tool queries real-time tick data (bid/ask prices, timestamps) from MetaTrader 5, which is a read-only operation with no side effects. While it provides market information used in trading decisions, the tool itself does not execute trades, modify positions, or commit financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is limited to information disclosure or market analysis delays.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Get the latest tick data for a symbol' — retrieves market data without modification or execution of trades."

## Use case

AI agents call get_symbol_info_tick to retrieve information from MCP Trader Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches MCP Trader Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_symbol_info_tick": {}
  }
}
```
