Perplexity

Manage live trades using the Tradier MCP Server.

Need to place a trade? Your agent calls `place_order` and handles it. You can also check what's going on with an open position by calling `get_account_positions`. This keeps your trading logic clean. Don't forget the cleanup. If you need to pull back an order, use `cancel_order`. Always verify status first using `get_order_status` before running any changes through this MCP Server.

Retrieve deep market data with your AI client.

Get historical context for your models. You can pull price bars—daily, weekly, or monthly—using `get_historical_data`. Better yet, fetch real-time quotes for multiple symbols at once using `get_quotes`. Need to look at options? The server gives you full option chains via `get_option_chains`, so your agent can analyze complex derivatives before executing any trades.

Monitor account status with the OpenAI Agents SDK.

Your agent needs to know if you have money. Call `get_account_balances` to see current buying power and available funds. You can also pull your full history of activity using `get_account_history`. This MCP Server even helps track down symbols when you only know a keyword, running the search through `search_symbols`. It's perfect for agent setup that needs reliable starting data.

Setup guide

Set up Tradier MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
openai-agents package (pip install openai-agents)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install the SDK

Run pip install openai-agents to install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use MCPServerSse with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all Tradier tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Tradier tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Tradier tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.

agent.py

import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse

async def main():
    async with MCPServerSse(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ) as server:
        agent = Agent(
            name="Tradier Agent",
            instructions="You have access to Tradier tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())
