RISK

Why chart_manage_indicator is rated Medium

The tool modifies the chart state by adding or removing indicators/studies. Adding is a Write operation; removing could be considered Destructive, but indicators are typically non-critical configuration that can be re-added, making Write the most appropriate category. The blast radius is medium since misuse could clutter or clear chart indicators, affecting analysis workflows but not causing irreversible data loss.
