mcp-server-trading212 0.1.0

This MCP tool will allow AI agents to connect to your Trading212 account in order to manage your portfolio for you

Trading212 MCP Server

⚠️ **Warning:** Putting an AI in charge of your stock broker is inherently risky. Do not use this connector unless you have considered the risks and put appropriate controls in place to manage those risks.

By using this connector you agree to the terms of the MIT license, which includes indemnity from any financial losses resulting from it's use.

You should test the connector using "demo" mode before deploying to your live account.

Use at your own risk

Overview

The purpose of this MCP tool is to allow you to connect agentic AI to your Trading212 brokerage account. This will allow you to perform actions such as the following:

• Allow an AI to analyse and critique your portfolio
• Get the AI to suggest some stocks and order them on your behalf
• Allow the AI to manage a Trading212 investment pie on your behalf (coming soon)

Due to aggressive API rate limits imposed by the Trading212 API, this tool will attempt to cache API results in-memory (the default TTL is 5 minutes).

If you deploy a local Redis server on port 6379 the tool will use it instead of the in-memory cache.

Security tips

• If you are hosting the tool server remotely and connecting over the internet, make sure you deploy a reverse proxy with HTTPS, and ideally with Mutual TLS verification.
• You should avoid saving your Trading212 API key in plaintext. Try using an automated secret manager like keyring or 1password
• Always test the connector on the demo account before connecting to your real account

Components

Usage with Claude Desktop

uv

# Add the server to your claude_desktop_config.json.
# NOTE: To trade in your real account you will need to change --environment to "live"
"mcpServers": {
  "trading212": {
    "command": "uv",
    "args": [
      "--directory",
      "parent_of_servers_repo/servers/src/mcp_server_trading212",
      "run",
      "--api-key",
      "<KEEP_THIS_A_SECRET>",
      "--environment",
      "demo",
      "mcp-server-trading212"
    ]
  }
}

Docker

# Add the server to your claude_desktop_config.json
"mcpServers": {
  "trading212": {
    "command": "docker",
    "args": [
      "run",
      "todo"
    ]
  }
}

SSE Mode

This tool has SSE (server side events) mode built in to it. This allows you to run the tool as an HTTP service, which can optionally be located on a different server to the AI client. This is useful for debugging and might be helpful if you want to keep your API key away from your AI environment.

Use with Claude desktop in SSE mode

# On Tool server:
uv --directory path/to/project run --api-key '<KEEP_THIS_SECRET>' --environment "demo" mcp-server-trading212 --host 127.0.0.1 --port 6677 --sse

// Claude Desktop file
"mcpServers": {
  "trading212": {
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": [
      "mcp-proxy",
      "http://127.0.0.1:6677/sse",
    ],
    "env": {
        "API_ACCESS_TOKEN": "my-token"
    }
  }
}

If you are connecting to your tool server over an untrusted network (e.g. the internet) then you should host the tool server behind a reverse proxy that implements HTTPS encryption. Mutual TLS would be a good idea as well. Caddy can do all that for you.

Building

Docker:

docker build -t mcp/trading212 .

Test with MCP inspector

uv add "mcp[cli]"
mcp dev src/mcp_server_sqlite/server.py:wrapper
