TRADINGVIEW setup pack: connect Claude Code to TradingView

What this does: Claude Code reads TradingView's market data (technical ratings, pivots, ATR, screeners) through a free MCP server, explains what it sees, plans a trade with real levels, and does the risk math. It never places trades.

Not financial advice. Paper trade first. Always check the data yourself.

1. What you need

• Claude Code: https://code.claude.com
• Node.js (for npx)
• No TradingView account needed for this route.

2. The 1-file connection

Server: tradingview-mcp-server by fiale-plus (MIT, unofficial): https://github.com/fiale-plus/tradingview-mcp-server

In an empty folder, create .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tradingview": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "tradingview-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

And .claude/settings.local.json:

{
  "enableAllProjectMcpServers": true
}

Open Claude Code in that folder and type /mcp. You should see tradingview ✔ 12 tools.

3. The 3 prompts I used

1. Scan:

   use the tradingview mcp to read BTC, ETH, SOL, NVDA, TSLA, AAPL, SPY and QQQ on the 1h, 4h, daily and weekly charts. rank them from strongest to weakest and show it as a short table

2. Plan (with permission to say no):

   pick the cleanest long setup from that list. explain why in plain words, then give an entry, stop loss and target from real levels (pivots and ATR from tradingview), and the position size for a $10,000 account risking 1%. if nothing is clean enough, tell me not to trade

3. Watcher:

   /loop 30m use the tradingview mcp to check if AAPL has pulled back to $330 while SPY holds above its 200-day average. if yes, alert me with the plan. if no, one line: still waiting

Swap in your own symbols, account size, risk % and levels.

4. What it can't do (read first)

• It does not place trades. You decide.
• It uses TradingView's public scanner: no historical candles, and the data can be delayed or incomplete. Stock data before the open is the last close.
• /loop runs only while that Claude Code session is open (it stops after 7 days, or when you close the session).
• It's an unofficial tool, not affiliated with TradingView. TradingView's terms may limit automated use of its data; check them.
• My run (9 Nov 2026, before the US open): every market read bearish, and Claude said "Don't take a long today." The AAPL plan was conditional on a pullback to $330.

5. Want it inside the TradingView app?

There's a more advanced, popular option that controls the TradingView Desktop app (charts, Pine Script, alerts): https://github.com/tradesdontlie/tradingview-mcp. It needs the Desktop app and a paid TradingView plan.
