How to Set Up and Use TickDB Market Data
TickDB Unified Realtime Market Data API is an MCP server that gives AI assistants access to real-time and historical financial market data across seven asset classes: forex, precious metals, stock indices, US equities, Hong Kong stocks, China A-shares, and cryptocurrencies. It exposes 13 tools covering candlestick/K-line history, live ticker quotes, order book depth, recent trade history, and WebSocket streaming subscriptions—all through a single authenticated API endpoint. Quant researchers, traders, and developers use it to build AI-driven market analysis workflows without managing multiple data-provider integrations.
Prerequisites
- A TickDB API key (register for free at tickdb.ai)
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop or Claude Code
- Node.js 18+ and npx, or the tickdb npm package installed globally
- Optional: access to the hosted MCP endpoint at https://mcp.tickdb.ai/
Register for a TickDB API key
Go to tickdb.ai, create a free account, and copy your API key from the dashboard. This key authenticates all requests to the data API.
Install the tickdb CLI (optional but useful for testing)
Install the tickdb npm package globally to verify your API key and explore available symbols from the command line before wiring up the MCP server.
npm install -g tickdb
tickdb config set-key YOUR_API_KEYConfigure the MCP server in your client
Add the TickDB MCP server to your Claude Desktop config. The hosted endpoint at https://mcp.tickdb.ai/ accepts your key via the X-TickDB-Key header. Alternatively, use the npx command if a local package is available.
Restart your MCP client
Quit and reopen Claude Desktop (or run 'claude mcp restart' in Claude Code). The 13 market data tools will appear in your session.
Query a symbol to verify connectivity
Ask your AI assistant to fetch a real-time quote for a well-known symbol. A successful response confirms the API key is valid and the connection is working.

Symbol not found errors for a valid ticker
