Overview

Freqtrade-MCP is an MCP server that integrates with the Freqtrade cryptocurrency trading bot via its REST API, enabling seamless AI agent interaction for automated trading operations. For this integration to work, a running Freqtrade instance with the REST API enabled is required. The server exposes various Freqtrade API endpoints as MCP tools, including fetching market data, bot status, profit, balance, performance metrics, whitelist, blacklist, trades, and configuration. This allows for a range of commands to be issued to the Freqtrade bot, making it easier to control and monitor its activity. The server can be installed using pip or uv, and client configuration involves setting the command and arguments to run the server. Freqtrade configuration requires enabling the REST API by adding the api_server section to the configuration and setting api_server.enabled to true.
