Built for teams searching for a TradingView MCP server for Claude Desktop, Cursor IDE, or VS Code MCP workflows and needing a practical setup path instead of protocol-only documentation.

Quick Start Guide

Get connected in 3 simple steps for Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code

1

Generate JWT Token

Call the token generation endpoint to get your MCP authentication token for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or any other supported MCP client:

cURL 
curl -X POST https://tradingview-data1.p.rapidapi.com/api/mcp/generate \
  -H "x-rapidapi-host: tradingview-data1.p.rapidapi.com" \
  -H "x-rapidapi-key: YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY"
Response includes:
  • token - Your JWT authentication token
  • mcpUrl - MCP service endpoint
  • expiresIn - Token validity period (30min / 1day / 15days)
2

Configure Your MCP Client

Add TradingView MCP server to your client configuration. The hosted setup below is the fastest option for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code MCP workflows:

For Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json

JSON 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tradingview": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://mcp.tradingviewapi.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE",
        "Accept": "application/json, text/event-stream"
      }
    }
  }
}

For Claude Desktop

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

JSON 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tradingview": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://mcp.tradingviewapi.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE",
        "Accept": "application/json, text/event-stream"
      }
    }
  }
}

For VS Code MCP

VS Code MCP settings / server config JSON

JSON 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tradingview": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://mcp.tradingviewapi.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE",
        "Accept": "application/json, text/event-stream"
      }
    }
  }
}

Start Using MCP Tools

Restart Claude, Cursor, or VS Code and start using TradingView tools in your AI conversations:

"Search for Apple stock symbol"

"Get real-time quote for AAPL"

"Show me technical analysis for BTC/USDT"

"Get latest news for Tesla"

"Show upcoming earnings calendar"

"Get market leaderboards and top gainers"

"Use the TradingView MCP server to compare BTCUSDT and ETHUSDT trend signals"

Standalone Option

One-Step RapidAPI MCP Setup

This MCP can be configured independently from the hosted JWT flow. It uses your RapidAPI quota directly, so you only need to add the config below and replace YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY.

Add directly under mcpServers in any command-based MCP client config

JSON 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tradingview-data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@ivotoby/openapi-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "API_BASE_URL": "https://tradingview-data1.p.rapidapi.com",
        "OPENAPI_SPEC_PATH": "https://www.tradingviewapi.com/openapi.json",
        "API_HEADERS": "x-rapidapi-host:tradingview-data1.p.rapidapi.com,x-rapidapi-key: YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
Why choose this standalone setup?
  • Completely separate from the existing 3-step hosted MCP flow
  • Uses your RapidAPI subscription quota directly
  • Only one step: paste config, replace the key, then restart your client
  • Ideal for MCP clients that support command-based local server definitions
