risk_calculator · Trade MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What risk_calculator does on Trade MCP Server

AI agents invoke risk_calculator to trigger actions in Trade MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why risk_calculator needs a policy

This tool performs financial calculations (stop-loss, position sizing, risk-reward ratios) without directly executing trades or moving money. It appears to compute and return analytical results rather than place orders. However, given the server context (Binance trading, order management), these calculations could directly feed into trade execution.
