TradingView MCP

At a glance

This open source Python server answers market questions with public data: TradingView's screener and technical ratings, Yahoo Finance prices, and optional news sentiment. The model can scan an exchange for top movers or volume breakouts, run a multi-timeframe read on a symbol, and backtest one of nine simple strategies, including a walk-forward test that warns when a strategy only fits the past.

It is an independent project, not made by TradingView, and it never signs in to a TradingView account. The author also sells a hosted copy called TradingMCP; the self-hosted server here is free under the MIT licence. Nothing it says is financial advice.

Your computer or hosted

Our check: We ran this exact config on 27 Oct 2026: it started and answered with 37 tools. The project is Python only: the real package is tradingview-mcp-server on PyPI. The author warns that copies under other accounts add an npm package that installs malware, so avoid any npm version.

What's in the pod: its tools

We found 37 tools when we started it on 27 Oct 2026. Every one of them only reads, so nothing changes unless you act on what it finds.

Grouped and described by us. The README on GitHub lists the inputs each tool takes.

Add "MARKETAUX_API_TOKEN" in env to switch on financial_news and market_sentiment. Claude Desktop on a Mac often needs the full path to uvx.

Remote option

The author's paid hosted version (TradingMCP), with sign-in and monthly limits. It serves the same tools plus charts drawn in the chat.

Settings

Names are exactly as the project spells them. Required ones are marked.

What it can touch

Safer setup: It only reads public data and has no access to any brokerage or TradingView account, so it cannot place trades.

Before you start

• uv, with Python 3.10 to 3.13 (3.14 is not supported yet)
• Optional: a free Marketaux key for the news and sentiment tools

If it does not work

Requests time out on the first launch on Windows

Python 3.14 is not supported yet. Install Python 3.13 or older and point uvx at it with --python 3.13.

The news tools say they are not configured

Add MARKETAUX_API_TOKEN in env. Every other tool works without it.

Claude Desktop says uvx was not found

Use the full path to uvx, such as /Users/you/.local/bin/uvx, because desktop apps do not see your shell PATH.

An analysis returns empty values

TradingView sometimes returns nothing for bursts of requests. The server retries and caches, but ask for fewer symbols at once if it keeps happening.
