API and MCP

Free order flow API and MCP server

By Swiftedge · Published 3 Nov 2026

Swiftedge's live order flow numbers as JSON, free and without a key: the largest order book walls, resting liquidity, positioning levels, funding, open interest and large trades for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, gold, silver, US 500, US 100 and WTI crude oil. The same numbers are available to AI assistants through an MCP server.

MCP server for Claude, Cursor and other AI apps

Server URL: https://swiftedge.uk/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no key). Tools: list_markets and get_market_snapshot.

• Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, and paste the URL.
• Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http swiftedge https://swiftedge.uk/mcp
• Cursor and other clients with an mcp.json: {"mcpServers": {"swiftedge": {"url": "https://swiftedge.uk/mcp"}}}

Then ask, for example, "Where are the biggest bid walls on gold right now?" or "Is US 500 funding positive today?".
