tradingview-mcp-thaqif
Drive TradingView Desktop from Claude (and other MCP clients) for Pine Script v5/v6, FCPO/futures, and Wyckoff multi-timeframe analysis.
A local MCP server that bridges TradingView Desktop to an AI assistant over the Chrome DevTools Protocol, shipped with a 64-rule rules.json that constrains how the AI writes Pine and reads the market. MIT-licensed, runs entirely on your machine.
Improved fork of tradingview-mcp-jackson by Lewis W. Jackson, itself built on the original tradingview-mcp by @tradesdontlie. Full credit to both — see NOTICE.
WARNING
Not affiliated with TradingView Inc. or Anthropic. This tool connects to the TradingView Desktop app already running on your machine via the Chrome DevTools Protocol. It requires your own valid TradingView subscription and does not bypass any paywall. It surfaces analysis only — it does not place trades. Read the Disclaimer and SECURITY.md before use.
NOTE
All processing is local. No TradingView data leaves your machine; the server has no telemetry.
What it does
- Read your chart — symbol, timeframe, indicator values, and custom Pine output (lines, labels, tables, boxes).
- Develop Pine Script v5/v6 — inject source, smart-compile, and read errors in a loop.
- Manage alerts, replays, and screenshots.
morning_brief— scan a watchlist, read every indicator, and return structured data so the model produces a Wyckoff multi-timeframe bias, driven by yourrules.json.
What's new in this fork
| Feature | What it does |
|---|---|
rules.json v2.0.0 | A 64-rule engine across 9 categories (Pine v5/v6, indicators, multi-timeframe, Wyckoff, FCPO, backtesting, alerts, risk, MCP tools). See docs/RULESET.md. |
examples/fcpo_wyckoff_mtf.pine | A worked, rule-compliant Pine v6 indicator (Spring/UTAD, non-repaint HTF, FCPO sessions). |
npm + .mcpb packaging | Install via npx, or one-click in Claude Desktop via a Desktop Extension bundle. |
| Inherited from the jackson fork | morning_brief, session_save/session_get, tv CLI, and the tv_launch fix for TradingView Desktop v2.14+. |
Requirements
- Node.js 18+
- TradingView Desktop running with the Chrome DevTools Protocol enabled (see SETUP_GUIDE.md)
- A valid TradingView subscription
Install
Full per-client snippets (Cursor, Cline, VS Code, local clone) are in the install section below.
Claude Desktop — one click: install the .mcpb from Settings -> Extensions, or build it from manifest.json (see DISTRIBUTION.md).
Claude Desktop — config file (claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"tradingview": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "tradingview-mcp-thaqif"]
}
}
}
Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json), Cline (cline_mcp_settings.json), and VS Code (.vscode/mcp.json) use the same command/args. Run from a local clone with "command": "node", "args": ["/abs/path/tradingview-mcp-thaqif/src/server.js"].
Then, with TradingView Desktop open, verify with the tv_health_check tool.
The rules engine
rules.json is loaded as AI context so the assistant treats critical/high rules as hard constraints. The 9 categories: pine_script, indicators, multi_timeframe, wyckoff, fcpo, backtesting, alerts, risk_management, mcp_tools. Each rule has an id, rationale, severity, and a runnable example. Full guide: docs/RULESET.md. Worked example: examples/.
Publishing / distribution
This repo is packaged for npm, the official MCP Registry (server.json), and a Claude .mcpb bundle (manifest.json). Step-by-step in DISTRIBUTION.md.
