How to Connect Cursor to TradeZella (MCP)

You can connect Cursor to your TradeZella account and ask it about your trading in plain words. Here’s how to set it up.

How do I connect Cursor?

Open your ~/.cursor/mcp.json file (create it if it doesn’t exist) and add this:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tradezella": {
      "url": "https://mcp.tradezella.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

‼️ Note: If your mcp.json file already has other MCP servers, don’t paste the whole block. Add only the "tradezella" part inside your existing "mcpServers" section.

Save the file.
In Cursor, open Settings and search for MCP.
Click Open MCP, then search for tradezella.
Click Authenticate next to tradezella.

A TradeZella page will open in your browser (sign in if asked). Choose Read only (selected by default) or Read & write, then click Allow.

💡 Note: Read only lets Cursor see and analyze your trading data, but it can’t change anything. Read & write also lets it add or update things in your account, like your notes, tags, and strategies. Cursor can’t add, edit, or delete your trades with either option.

Your TradeZella account is now connected. You can ask Cursor about your trading, such as your win rate, your recent trades, or your risk-to-reward.
