coinglass-mcp

coinglass-mcp is an MCP server for CoinGlass derivatives data. It exposes funding rates, open interest, long/short ratios, liquidation metrics, and the BTC Bubble Index for LLM workflows that need market structure context.

What It Covers

  • Current funding rates across major exchanges

  • Funding rate history for one exchange and symbol

  • Open interest snapshots and aggregated OI history

  • Global long/short account ratio history

  • Liquidation summaries and liquidation chart history

  • Bitcoin Bubble Index

Why This Server Exists

CoinGlass is useful for derivatives structure, but its API is not ergonomic for agent tool use. This project wraps the API in MCP tools with:

  • cleaner tool descriptions

  • interval validation

  • normalized symbols

  • HTTP and stdio transport support

  • safer defaults for local deployment

Requirements

  • Python 3.11+

  • A CoinGlass API key

Interpreting the Data

Signal

Typical Interpretation

Funding rate > 0.1%

Longs crowded, higher squeeze risk

Funding rate < -0.05%

Shorts crowded, rebound or squeeze setup

OI rising + price rising

Trend confirmation

OI rising + price falling

Short pressure building

OI falling

Position unwinding

Long/short ratio > 1.5

Retail long crowding

Large long liquidations

Forced selling, can mark local panic

Large short liquidations

Short squeeze / forced upside
