`technical_indicator`

Pack: twelvedata · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/twelvedata/mcp

Compute a technical indicator time series for a stock/forex/crypto symbol via Twelve Data — RSI, SMA, EMA, MACD, Bollinger Bands (bbands), ADX, ATR, Stochastic, CCI, and more. PREFER for “RSI(14) of AAPL”, “50-day and 200-day SMA of TSLA”, “MACD for BTC/USD”, “Bollinger Bands of SPY”. This is the right tool for ANY “RSI / SMA / EMA / MACD / moving average / technical indicator for ” question. Computes ONE indicator per call: if several are requested (e.g. “RSI and the 50-day and 200-day SMA”), call this once per indicator starting with the first — do NOT decline just because multiple indicators are asked for. Returns dated indicator values.
