Connect your AI to TickSurfers
Let your AI assistant write, check, and backtest custom indicators and strategies for the TickSurfers chart, then save them to your account. Nothing to install: you only need the server URL.
Server URL
https://chart.ticksurfers.com/api/ai/mcp
You need a TickSurfers account. A free account (email only, no card) can validate studies and save them. Backtesting requires Pro.
Add it to your AI app
Claude
In Claude on the web or desktop, open Settings → Connectors, choose Add custom connector, and paste the server URL.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http ticksurfers-chart https://chart.ticksurfers.com/api/ai/mcp
Then run /mcp inside Claude Code and choose ticksurfers-chart to sign in.
Cursor
Add this to your mcp.json and restart the server from Cursor's MCP settings:
{
"mcpServers": {
"ticksurfers-chart": {
"url": "https://chart.ticksurfers.com/api/ai/mcp"
}
}
}
ChatGPT and other apps
Any app that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth sign-in can use the same URL. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom connector (developer mode). Other apps list it under their MCP or connectors settings.
What happens when you connect
- Your AI app opens a TickSurfers page in your browser.
- Sign in to your account if you are not already, and review the request.
- Choose Approve. Your AI app is connected. Your password is never shared with it.
What your AI can do
- Read the study protocol and the technical analysis catalog before writing code, so it uses real functions.
- Validate indicator and strategy code and report errors and warnings.
- Backtest strategies on historical data (Pro).
- List your saved studies and save new ones as private studies in your Chart account.
It cannot place trades or reach your brokerage accounts. Backtests are historical simulations and do not establish future returns. See the risk disclosure.
Try asking: "Write a moving average crossover strategy for TickSurfers, validate it, and backtest it on SPY."
Staying in control
Open the chart, choose Account, then the AI agents tab to see every connected app and disconnect any of them. Connections expire after 30 days and ask you to approve again.
