Rasattrading MCP

A Binance price-action / liquidity-focused Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for AI agents.

A background daemon collects Binance REST/WebSocket data, runs price-action analysis (market structure, liquidity zones, order blocks), and evaluates screener and alarm logic. A thin MCP stdio adapter connects to that daemon over local HTTP RPC and exposes the system to AI agents as tools.

Overview

Rasattrading MCP is a self-hosted, locally run trading system built for agentic use. An AI agent drives it through standard MCP tools; the system never runs unattended market orders by default and enforces a paper-first account lifecycle.

• 39 MCP tools covering market data, price-action analysis, screening, alerts, order execution, and account/risk management.

• Daemon + thin adapter architecture: a single long-lived daemon owns Binance connections, state, and computation; the MCP stdio adapter is a stateless client that forwards calls over HTTP RPC on localhost.

• Paper-first by design: every account starts locked to paper trading. Real trading is a deliberate, one-way, irreversible opt-in per account.

Features

• Price-action analysis: market structure (swings), liquidity zones, order blocks, FVGs, VWAP sessions, and chart annotations. Computed only on closed candles, stored as immutable, append-only records (effective_from / effective_to + algo_version).

• Screener: scan_market filters the universe with an allowlisted filter AST (volume_change, price_change, structure_event, liquidity_sweep_occurred, near_order_block, funding_rate, oi_change, above_below_vwap) combined with AND/OR and sortable by symbol, price change, or volume change — safe against free-form SQL/string injection.

• Alarm engine: event-driven triggers with deduplication and cooldown; composite alerts supported. A triggered alarm can create a pending_order awaiting approval.

• Execution: idempotent order placement, OCO orders, reconcile-before-retry, and a fail-closed risk policy. Orders are never opened automatically — alarms and order specs produce pending_orders that require explicit human approval (approve_pending_order).

• Paper / real separation: each account starts with trading_lock=paper. enable_real_trading is a one-way, irreversible unlock. Accounts with real trading enabled cannot be deleted.

• Emergency stop: a standalone kill-switch script (rasattrading-emergency-stop) that works independently of the daemon — it reads stored credentials directly, cancels open orders, and liquidates spot balances at market price through Binance REST.

• Account and risk management: per-account risk policy, position sizing, exposure/balance queries, and an append-only audit hash-chain log.

Every tool response uses a common envelope:

{ "ok": true, "data": {}, "meta": { "as_of": "...", "source": "...", "freshness": "...", "algo_version": "..." } }

Errors are { "ok": false, "error": { "code": "...", "message": "..." } }.

Installation

Requirements: Python 3.11+ on Windows. Credential encryption uses Windows DPAPI; the keyring backend could be ported to other platforms, but development and testing currently target Windows.

python -m venv .venv
.venv\Scripts\pip install -e .[dev]
.venv\Scripts\python -m pytest -q

Installed console scripts:

Quick start

1. Install the package as above.

2. Run rasattrading-mcp. On first use it starts the daemon as a detached subprocess (state under ~/.rasattrading/, HTTP IPC on 127.0.0.1:8751, bearer token in ~/.rasattrading/daemon.lock) and waits until it is ready.

3. Point any MCP-capable client at the adapter. The server advertises 39 tools; the daemon state is shared, so the daemon can also be run separately with rasattrading-daemon.

4. Register an account with add_account (API key and secret are encrypted with DPAPI at rest). The account starts in paper mode.

5. Validate the installation with ping, get_readiness, and get_candles; watch list_accounts and the audit log (get_audit_log) to confirm paper mode before anything else.

Order flow: scan_market / create_alert → trigger → pending_order → approve_pending_order (human confirmation) → broker executes. Nothing opens automatically.

Safety and risk

This project can place and close real-money orders. You use it entirely at your own risk.

• Test in paper mode and on a Binance testnet before connecting a live account.

• Start with small capital.

• Verify rasattrading-emergency-stop works in your environment before relying on it.

• Real trading is a one-way unlock: re-enabling safety guards after going live is not automatic.
