# Trading-MCP-Server
An intelligent trading assistant that integrates with the Claude AI MCP (Model Context Protocol) platform. This tool fetches live stock prices using Yahoo Finance and enables seamless command-based interaction with the market via Claude's agent interface.
## 🚀 Features
- 🔄 Fetches real-time (or near real-time) stock prices using Yahoo Finance
- 🤖 Connects to Claude MCP as a server with custom trading commands
- 🛠 Built using Python with support for virtual environments and `uv` for dependency management
- ⚙️ Supports modular expansion to include trading signals, historical analysis, and more
## 🧠 Architecture
- **Claude AI MCP Integration**: Uses `mcp[cli]` to expose a server interface to Claude.
- **Yahoo Finance API**: For retrieving stock data (via `yfinance`).
- **Virtual Environment**: Managed using `uv` for fast and deterministic builds.
## 📦 Setup
```bash
# Install uv if not already installed
brew install uv
# Navigate to the project directory
cd MCPtrading
# Install dependencies
uv pip install -r requirements.txt
# (Optional) Add packages
uv add yfinance
```
## 🏃♀️ Running the Server
Make sure to use the correct Python environment:
```bash
uv run --python .venv/bin/python --with "mcp[cli]" mcp run trader_tools.py
```
Or update your Claude config:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"Trading": {
"command": "/Users/yourname/.local/bin/uv",
"args": [
"run",
"--python",
"/full/path/to/.venv/bin/python",
"--with",
"mcp[cli]",
"mcp",
"run",
"trader_tools.py"
]
}
}
}
```
🧪 Example Usage
Ask Claude:
"What's the latest price of AAPL?"
Claude will call the MCP server and respond with the current stock price.
