How does this MCP identify trading opportunities?

It analyzes the spread between Implied Volatility and Realized Volatility. It also uses IV rank filters to find specific regimes.

Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?

Yes. You can connect this MCP to any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

What kind of VIX data can I get?

You can assess the VIX futures market term structure and determine if it is in contango or backwardation.

Does it provide statistical data?

Yes, it can calculate statistical metrics for volatility spreads, including mean and standard deviation.

Is this for manual trading?

It is designed to act as a deterministic engine that your AI agent can use to automate volatility calculations.

How are trading signals generated?

Signals are generated by comparing the volatility spread (IV - RV) against specific thresholds and IV rank filters using the calculate_volatility_signals capability.

What is the purpose of the VIX analysis capability?

The analyze_vix_structure capability assesses whether the VIX futures market is in Contango or Backwardation and calculates the expected roll yield.

Does this strategy account for risk management?

Yes, the engine provides vega-neutral position sizing, stop-loss triggers based on spread movement, and take-profit targets based on mean reversion or time.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.
