TradingMCP (atilaahmettaner/tradingview-mcp), a community TradingView server

CommunityRemoteLocal
Gethttps://mcp.tradingmcp.ai/mcpatilaahmettaner/tradingview-mcpDocs

Not the official TradingView MCP server. This one is built by the community. TradingView makes its own: TradingView MCP Server →

Lets your AI assistant screen stocks and crypto, run technical analysis and backtest simple strategies.

This community server lets Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT and other assistants screen stocks and crypto, run technical analysis, backtest strategies and draw charts. You can run it free on your own computer, or pay for the hosted version. It is not made by TradingView, and the screener library it uses says US stock prices come back 15 minutes late. If you pay for TradingView's Essential plan or higher and want fundamentals, filings, watchlists and alerts from your own account, use the official TradingView server instead.

Good for

  • Traders who want screeners and technical analysis inside Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT
  • Hobbyists testing a simple strategy on past prices without writing code
  • Developers who want a free, self-hosted market data server with no TradingView login
  • Anyone who wants a morning market brief across crypto, stocks and gold

Install TradingMCP MCP

Claude Code

  1. 1

    Copy this prompt.

    Add the TradingMCP MCP server to Claude Code. Run this command:
    
    claude mcp add tradingview -- uvx --from tradingview-mcp-server tradingview-mcp
    
    Then check that it loaded and tell me if I need to sign in or restart.
  2. 2

    Paste it into Claude Code. It shows the change and asks before running it.

Requires uv, Python 3.10 to 3.13.

No TradingView account or API key is needed. It needs Python 3.10 to 3.13, so if the first launch times out on Python 3.14, add "--python", "3.13" to the args. The news and sentiment tools need a free Marketaux key in MARKETAUX_API_TOKEN (100 requests a day); without it the other tools still work. Install only the PyPI package tradingview-mcp-server, because copies of this repo under other accounts have added malware. The hosted TradingMCP option (paid, from $9 a month) needs no install. Its private link carries your API key, so treat it like a password.

Built from the package data we hold. Not yet tested by us.

Tools

  • Gives one verdict from chart signals, news sentiment and headlines

    Pulls technical indicators, news sentiment and recent headlines for one symbol into a single combined read, so you do not have to check three sources. Use it when you want a quick all-round view of a stock or coin.

    Try: “Give me a combined technical and news read on NVDA”

    Network · combined_analysis

  • Runs a full technical analysis on one coin or stock

    Calculates the technical indicators for a single symbol on an exchange and timeframe you choose. Use it when you want the detailed numbers behind a chart for one asset.

    Network · coin_analysis

  • Checks whether weekly, daily and intraday trends agree

    Compares a symbol across timeframes from weekly down to 15 minutes to show whether the trends line up. Use it before acting on a short-term signal so you know the bigger picture.

Permissions

low risk · 6 things to watch

Low risk

It only reads market data and cannot trade, but it relies on an unofficial TradingView route and fake copies of the project carry malware.

What it can do

Watch out for

  • Fake copies of this repo carry npm malware

    Copies under other GitHub accounts add npm packages flagged as a remote-access trojan. The real project is Python only, so install from this repo or the PyPI package, never from npm. github.com

  • TradingView's terms bar machine-driven use of its data

    The server reads an undocumented TradingView endpoint through unofficial libraries. TradingView's terms license its data for display only and ask for a separate agreement for machine-driven use, so automated use is at your own risk. tradingview.com

  • US stock prices can be 15 minutes late

    The screener library it uses says US exchanges come back 15 minutes late without a TradingView login. Crypto is live, so check timestamps before acting on a stock quote. github.com

  • The hosted private link works like a password

    Setups without sign-in put your API key in the link. Anyone with it can use up your quota, so keep it out of shared configs. tradingmcp.ai

  • It can return old data during outages

    If TradingView keeps failing, results can come from a cache up to 6 hours old by default. Check timestamps. github.com

  • The optional proxy routes traffic via a third party

    If you fill in the proxy settings, Yahoo Finance requests go through a residential proxy provider. Leave them blank to skip it. github.com

Technical details
Turning on read-onlyEvery tool only reads public market data and runs calculations. There is no trading, no broker connection and no TradingView account, so there is nothing to switch on.

Sign-in and keysSelf-hosted needs no sign-in. The hosted version puts your API key in the private link.

Alternatives

Use the official TradingView server if you pay for an Essential plan and want fundamentals, alerts and your own watchlists. Pick this one for free self-hosted screeners and backtests, or tradesdontlie's server to drive your own TradingView Desktop chart.

What people say

People like that it needs no TradingView login and gets bugs fixed quickly, and dislike its uneven error handling and the fake copies of the repo.

What people like

  • No TradingView account, login or key is needed, so nothing of yours can be banned or exposed.
  • The maintainer fixes detailed bug reports fast: a hang reported on 19 Aug 2026 shipped as a fix five days later.

Common complaints

  • Error replies come in two shapes, so an assistant often cannot tell a wrong symbol from an outage.
  • Pre-market change was once measured from the wrong close and could show the wrong direction (since fixed).
  • Bundled symbol lists went stale and scans missed tickers that changed exchange (since fixed).
  • With Docker, the news key never reaches the container and the news tools fail silently.

Questions

Do I need a TradingView account or API key?

No. The server never logs into TradingView and needs no key. The only optional key is a free Marketaux token for the news and sentiment tools.

Is it free?

Yes, if you run it yourself under the MIT license. The hosted version, TradingMCP, costs $9 a month for 2,500 calls or $29 a month for 10,000 calls, with a 14-day money-back guarantee.

How fresh is the price data?

Crypto is live. Stocks, FX and futures can be delayed, and the screener library it uses says US exchanges come back 15 minutes late without a TradingView login.

Is using it allowed under TradingView's terms?

TradingView's terms license its data for display-only, personal use and bar machine-driven or commercial use without an agreement. The project says it is not affiliated with TradingView and leaves compliance to you.

How is it different from TradingView's official MCP server?

TradingView's beta server needs a paid Essential plan and adds fundamentals, filings, watchlists and alerts. This one is free to self-host and adds backtests, multi-timeframe scans and in-chat charts.

Is there an npm package?

No. The project is Python only. Copies of the repo under other GitHub accounts have added npm packages that carry malware, so install from the PyPI package or this repo.

Can it place trades?

No. It only reads market data and runs analysis and backtests. It does not connect to brokers or place orders.

Why do I get empty results or errors from screeners?

TradingView sometimes returns empty replies for 30 to 90 seconds when it is hit too fast. The server retries, and if it still fails, wait about a minute and ask again.

Claude Desktop times out on first launch. What do I do?

Python 3.14 is not supported yet. Add "--python", "3.13" to the uvx args, or run uv tool install --python 3.13 tradingview-mcp-server before opening Claude Desktop.

What is the hosted TradingMCP server URL?

The hosted address is https://mcp.tradingmcp.ai/mcp. Some apps sign in with your account, and others use a private link that carries your API key.
