# MgvOracle

As described in the section Governance -> Global Variables, Mangrove governance can configure Mangrove to use a separate Monitor Contract as a gas price and density oracle.

The `MgvOracle` contract is a simple contract that implements the Monitor interface and can be deployed by Mangrove governance to serve as a Monitor Contract. It serves as a bridge to an off-chain oracle for gas price and density. When deployed, this contract is configured with the address of a specified permissioned sender that is allowed to call the external functions to update the values for gas price and density that the oracle reports to Mangrove.

```solidity
function setGasPrice(uint gasPrice) external
function setDensity96X32(uint density96X32) external
```

A method is also provided for governance to change the permissioned sender.

```solidity
function setMutator(address mutator_) external
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.mangrove.exchange/dev/protocol/technical-references/periphery-contracts/mgvoracle.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
