Plug your trading data directly into Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible assistant. Ask questions about your performance in plain English.

Frequently asked questions

What is the TradeInsights API?

A versioned REST API at /api/v1 that lets you read trades, write new entries, fetch performance analytics, and connect TradingView alerts directly to your trading journal. Authentication is via Bearer tokens issued through the Developer Portal.

What is the MCP server?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude and Cursor access authorized data. Our MCP server at /api/v1/mcp gives your assistant tools to query trading history, run analytics, and request guarded evidence reviews on your behalf.

Can I use the API on the free plan?

Yes — the Sandbox tier is free and gives you 1,000 API calls per month for testing. To unlock writes, webhooks, and the MCP server, upgrade to the Developer ($19/mo) or Pro ($49/mo) plan.

Are the API plans separate from my journal subscription?

Yes. API plans are standalone Stripe subscriptions managed in the Developer Portal. If you already have a Premium or Pro journal subscription, your API tier is granted automatically — no double billing.

How do I connect TradingView alerts to my journal?

First review the integration limits at /tradingview-integration. Existing webhook tools accept supported payloads as draft records, not verified executions. TradingView and data-provider permissions apply; do not assume webhook access permits automated decisions or orders. Use supported broker history for First Value.

Is there an interactive way to try the API?

Yes. The Developer Portal includes an API Playground tab where you can pick an endpoint, fill in parameters, send live requests with your own API key, and copy the resulting cURL, Node.js, or Python snippet.
