Market Eyes Live
Market Eyes Live MCP Server
A free Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives AI agents and LLM applications MELANY stock ratings for any U.S.-listed stock or ETF, more than 11,000 tickers: conviction tier, 0-100 composite score, eight factor scores, top risks, and an as-of date. Plus U.S. mortgage-rate context. No API key, no signup. Streamable HTTP. Works with Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and any MCP client.
Endpoint https://marketeyeslive.com/mcp | Transport Streamable HTTP | Auth none | Registry name io.github.marketeyeslive/market-eyes-live
Quick start
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http market-eyes-live https://marketeyeslive.com/mcpClaude Desktop and VS Code
Add this to your MCP configuration file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"market-eyes-live": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://marketeyeslive.com/mcp"
}
}
}Cursor
Cursor infers a remote server from the presence of url, so it takes no type field:
{
"mcpServers": {
"market-eyes-live": {
"url": "https://marketeyeslive.com/mcp"
}
}
}Claude.ai and the Claude desktop app, as a connector
Settings, then Connectors, then add a custom connector and paste https://marketeyeslive.com/mcp. Leave the authentication fields empty.
That is the whole setup. There is no key to paste and no account to create.
Tools
| Tool | Arguments | Returns |
|---|---|---|
get_stock_rating |
symbol (string, e.g. NVDA) |
MELANY's current rating for one U.S.-listed stock or ETF: conviction tier, 0-100 composite score, the eight factor scores, top flagged risks, theme context, and the as-of date. |
compare_stocks |
symbols (2 to 5 tickers) |
A side-by-side comparison of tier, composite, and factor scores across the requested tickers, drawn from the daily-refreshed set. |
get_mortgage_rate_context |
none | Today's U.S. mortgage-rate read: 10-year Treasury yield and direction, MBS momentum, the overall rate environment, and what moves mortgage rates. |
The eight factor scores
Every rating shows its work through eight components: Valuation (price against fundamentals), Quality (balance sheet strength and profitability), Momentum (price trend and relative strength), Earnings (growth trajectory and surprises), Sentiment (analyst and market mood), Catalyst (near-term events that could move the stock), Risk-Adjusted (return for the risk taken), and Macro Fit (fit with the current market regime and sector cycle).
Questions it answers well
- "Is NVDA a buy right now, and what does the rating actually rest on?"
- "Compare AAPL, MSFT and GOOGL on quality and valuation."
- "What are the flagged risks on TSLA today?"
- "Is VOO overvalued at this level?"
- "Should I lock my mortgage rate this week?"
What this is, and what it is not
Most financial MCP servers hand a model raw inputs: prices, fundamentals, news, technicals. The model then has to do the analysis itself, in-context, with no memory of whether its last read was any good.
This server hands back a finished analytical judgment: one conviction tier and one 0-100 composite, plus the eight factor scores that produced it. Two things back that number:
- The rules are stress-tested against 19 years of U.S. market history (2007 to 2026, spanning the 2008 financial crisis, the COVID crash, and the 2022 bear market), with delisted companies included so the test is not flattered by survivorship bias.
- Every published rating is forward-tested. Each one is recorded and graded daily against what the market actually did next, on a public record with a raw feed and a full validation study, including the ideas the testing program rejected.
To be explicit about the limits: Market Eyes Live does not issue buy or sell calls, this is research rather than financial advice, and the 19-year window tests the rules, not the live ratings, which are graded forward day by day. Coverage is U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs only.
How it compares to market-data MCP servers
These are complementary rather than competing. A raw data feed wins on breadth, history, and international coverage. This one wins when you want a scored read with a track record attached.
| Market Eyes Live | Market-data MCP servers (Alpha Vantage, EODHD, Finnhub, Tiingo) | |
|---|---|---|
| What you get | A scored judgment: tier, 0-100 composite, 8 factor scores, risks | Raw inputs: quotes, fundamentals, news, technicals |
| Who does the analysis | The MELANY engine, consistently, every day | The model, in-context, per request |
| Track record | Every rating graded daily on a public record | Not applicable, data is not a prediction |
| Coverage | U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs, 11,000+ | Often global, multi-exchange, decades of history |
| API key | None | Usually required |
| Cost | Free, rate-limited | Free tier plus paid plans |
| Best for | "Is this a good stock, and how confident should I be?" | "Give me the numbers so I can compute something" |
A fuller side-by-side, including when a raw data feed is the better choice: financial data MCP servers compared.
Usage is governed by the API terms of use: commercial use is fine, attribution is asked for, and nothing here is financial advice.
Coverage and rate limits
- Coverage: any U.S.-listed stock or ETF, more than 11,000 tickers. A core set is refreshed daily and answers instantly; anything outside it is scored live on demand.
- Read limit: 240 calls per hour per IP, and 6,000 per hour across all callers. Those are the limits in force as of 15 August 2026. They can change in either direction, and this page is the reference for what they currently are.
- Live on-demand scoring: 20 per hour per IP, and 300 per hour across all callers, because those calls hit paid data vendors. Recent live scores are reused for 12 hours. Stating the shared cap because you can be limited by it while still under your own.
- Asset-native scoring: an ETF is judged as a fund and a REIT on FFO, rather than forced through a common stock template.
- Limits are generous for normal agent use. If you are building something that needs more, email team@marketeyeslive.com.
One engine, two products
The MCP server and the Market Eyes Live app are the same company and the same engine. The MCP server is the free public data tier. The app carries the full research depth: suggested entry prices, alert levels, portfolio tools, a free paper-trading arena, and Lock Radar mortgage timing. It runs on iOS and the web.

What is Market Eyes Live How MELANY is tested
Market Eyes Live is a research tool, not financial advice. Ratings are data-driven estimates of conviction, not buy or sell recommendations, and past testing does not guarantee future results.
