What it does
Traderspy Position Check is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. Health-check crypto futures positions the user describes, with TraderSpy data: liquidation and stop distance, multi-timeframe read, funding and top-trader side. Reports only; never tells the user to close or add.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/risk-math.md`).
The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is MIT.
Example prompts
- “/traderspy-position-check”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- get_technical_indicators — intervals: ["1h","4h","1d"], `indicators: ["rsi","macd","ema",
- get_derivatives — up to five coins in ONE call for all positions at once. Funding is a cost
- get_positions — symbol, status: "open", limit: 20. Optional; skip on a tight quota.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1e53ce2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
mcp.traderspy.app
Also links to:
traderspy.app
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Traderspy Position Check loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 947 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

TraderSpy Position Check
A position check answers, in order: how much room is left before this position is taken away (liquidation), how much before the user's own plan says it is wrong (stop), what the chart and the derivatives market are doing around it, and who else is positioned the same way. Report those facts with numbers. The decision — hold, trim, close, add — belongs to the person whose money it is.
When to Use
- Use when the user asks "how's my position", "am I in trouble", "how far am I from liquidation", "should I hold or close" or "review my trades", or asks what you think of their long or short.
- Use when the user pastes or describes a position, for example "I'm long ETH from 2,400 at 10x".
- The skill reports and explains. It never tells the user to close, add, hedge or move a stop, and it cannot trade.
Inputs
The position always comes from the user. TraderSpy has no account tool: it cannot read a balance or an open position on any exchange, so never offer to "check the account".
Ask for whatever is missing among side, entry, leverage (and stop / target / the exchange's
liquidation price if they have them). Size is optional — the analysis works in percentages. The
current price is the price that get_technical_indicators returns.
Map the symbol to Binance naming for the data tools: BTC → BTCUSDT, kPEPE → 1000PEPEUSDT,
xyz:AVGO → AVGOUSDT.
Calls per position (keep it to what matters)
get_technical_indicators—intervals: ["1h","4h","1d"],indicators: ["rsi","macd","ema", "atr","adx","supertrend","levels"]. One call. This gives the trend on three timeframes, ATR for stop sanity and the nearest levels.get_derivatives— up to five coins in ONE call for all positions at once. Funding is a cost or an income for this position; the OI regime says whether the move is being funded.get_positions—symbol,status: "open",limit: 20. Optional; skip on a tight quota. Tells you whether tracked top traders are on the same side.
Three positions ≈ 3 + 1 (+3) calls. If the quota is tight, do derivatives for all coins first, then technicals for the position with the smallest liquidation distance.
The math (show it, briefly)
- P&L % on margin = (mark − entry) / entry × leverage, sign-flipped for shorts; P&L % on price = the same without leverage. State both when leverage > 1.
- Distance to liquidation = |liq − mark| / mark. With no liquidation price from the user, approximate: ≈ 100 / leverage % minus a maintenance buffer (say it is approximate; cross margin makes the real distance depend on the whole account).
- Distance to stop = |stop − mark| / mark, and stop distance in ATRs = |stop − mark| / ATR(14) on the 4h. Under 1 ATR means the stop sits inside normal noise for that timeframe.
- Funding per day ≈
funding.ratePct× 3 on notional; positive rate costs longs and pays shorts.
Bands for the liquidation distance: ≤ 5% → "at risk", ≤ 15% → "watch", above → "comfortable". These are labels for a distance, not instructions.

The report
ALWAYS use this template per position:
<COIN> <SIDE> · <leverage>x · <marginMode>
- Entry
<entry>→ mark<mark>(<±x.x%> on price, <±y%> on margin) · uPnL <$, when the size is known> - Liquidation
<liq>— <d%> away → <at risk / watch / comfortable> - Stop <stop or "none stated"> — <d%> /
<n>ATR(4h) away · Target<if any> - Chart: 1h <bias, RSI, trend> · 4h <…> · 1d <…> · confluence <aligned / mixed>
- Nearest levels: support <price (d%)>, resistance <price (d%)>
- Derivatives: funding <label, annualized → cost or income for this side>, OI
<regime>, top traders <long %> (same side / opposite side) - Thesis check: what the position needs to keep working, and the level or reading that would say it has stopped working
- Scenarios: if price goes to
<nearest level against>the position shows <P&L>; at<liquidation>it is gone; at<nearest level for>it shows <P&L>
Then one line naming the position with the least room, and one plain sentence that crypto derivatives are high-risk and this is market information, not financial advice.
Facts first, labels second, no verbs of instruction. "The stop sits 0.6 ATR away, inside normal 4h noise" is a report; "move your stop" is not.
Conduct
- Never tell the user to close, hold, add, hedge, move a stop or change leverage. Present distances, scenarios and the invalidation level; the decision is theirs. If they ask "should I close", lay out what supports staying in and what argues against, then hand it back.
- Distances and scenarios are arithmetic on current prices and levels the tools returned; they are not predictions of where price will go.
- Nothing in this connector trades — no order, close, transfer or withdrawal tool exists, by design. Say so when asked to act; the decision and any trade stay with the user.
- Position details the user shares stay in the conversation; do not restate them in later unrelated answers.
- Quote only tool results and what the user told you; if a coin is not tracked, say so.
Formulas and worked examples: references/risk-math.md.
Examples
I'm short SOL from 180 at 5x, liquidation around 214. How far is it, and what do the 1h/4h/1d indicators say?
I'm long ETH from 2,400 at 10x with a stop at 2,250. How does it look?
Am I in trouble on my SOL short?Limitations
- Needs the hosted TraderSpy MCP server connected in the client (
https://mcp.traderspy.app/mcp, Streamable HTTP), authorized with OAuth or a personal key from https://traderspy.app/mcp. A free TraderSpy account is enough. Without the server the skill has no data to work from. - Tool calls are metered per day: 300 on the free tier, 5,000 on premium.
- Every tool is read-only. Nothing here places, closes or modifies an order, and there is no withdrawal or transfer tool.
- The output is market data and analysis for the user's own research, not investment advice.
- TraderSpy cannot see anyone's exchange or TraderSpy account, so every position has to be described or pasted in chat.
- Without a
liquidationPricethe liquidation distance is an approximation; under cross margin it depends on the whole account.
