Crypto Indicators

You can run the Crypto Indicators MCP Server to access a wide range of cryptocurrency technical indicators and trading signals. It enables AI trading agents to analyze market trends, apply dozens of indicators, and generate buy/sell/hold decisions across multiple timeframes and data sources.

How to use

To use this MCP server with an MCP client, run the local server process and point your client at the configured MCP entry. The server exposes numerous indicators and corresponding strategies that output signals like -1 (SELL), 0 (HOLD), and 1 (BUY). You can configure the data source to your preferred exchange (default is Binance) and select the indicators or strategies you want for your trading workflow.

How to install

Prerequisites: Node.js v18.x or higher and npm v8.x or higher.

Step 1: Clone the repository and navigate into the project folder.

git clone https://github.com/kukapay/crypto-indicators-mcp.git
cd crypto-indicators-mcp

Step 2: Install dependencies.

npm install

Step 3: Configure the MCP client to connect to this server. Use the following MCP config snippet to run the server locally via Node.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "crypto-indicators-mcp": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["path/to/crypto-indicators-mcp/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "EXCHANGE_NAME": "binance"
      }
    }
  }
}

Configuration and runtime notes

The server defaults to Binance for market data but can be configured to any exchange supported by CCXT. Use the ENV var EXCHANGE_NAME to switch the data source when running the MCP client configuration.

Troubleshooting and tips

If you encounter connection issues, verify that the Node process starts correctly and that the MCP client config points to the correct index.js path and exchange name. Ensure you have network access to the chosen exchange's data endpoints.
