Build trading algorithms in Cursor with live data

Stop hardcoding mock API responses into your trading scripts. By connecting this MCP Server to Cursor, your editor's Agent mode pulls live energy pricing via `get_live_tickers` directly into your active file. The agent reads real market structures using `list_symbols` to write exact types and validation logic. You get working code that matches the live Flux Markets API schema on the first try.

Run backtests inside Cursor using this MCP Server

You can write and test execution strategies without leaving your editor. Cursor uses `get_historical_tickers` and `get_swap_settlements` to feed historical energy prices directly into your terminal or test suites. The AI agent reads these payloads to debug your pricing models. It identifies discrepancies in your swap settlement math by comparing your code's output against the official historical records.

Monitor Flux Markets API usage inside your editor

Avoid hitting rate limits during heavy debugging sessions. This MCP Server lets your Cursor agent call `get_account_info` to monitor your API usage and subscription limits while you run tests. If you start running out of calls, the editor alerts you. This keeps your development loop running without unexpected API blocks or sudden billing surprises.
