Macro data inside your AI workflow
The FXMacroData MCP server lets Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and any MCP-compatible AI host query live central bank data directly — wherever traders and analysts are already working.
Claude (Web & Desktop)
Add FXMacroData as a remote MCP connector in Claude settings. Ask for real-time policy rates, CPI, GDP, and FX spot history in plain English — no code required.
VS Code & Cursor
Add the MCP endpoint in your editor's connector panel. Live macro context in every coding session — no copy-paste, no context switching.
Custom Agents & SDKs
Any MCP-compatible runtime. Streamable HTTP transport with OAuth 2.0 or API-key auth. Build macro-aware agents, alerts, and pipelines.
Coverage
Everything you need for macro-driven FX workflows
Move from economic release to signal generation with complete indicator coverage, release calendars, and implementation paths for quant traders, systematic researchers, and developers.
Backtest integrity
No Lookahead Bias — Point-in-Time Data
Every economic release is stamped with its actual announcement datetime,
not just the reference period. When you backtest over a historical window, your model
only sees data that was publicly available at that exact moment — matching real trading conditions.
Compatible with pandas merge_asof,
event-study frameworks, and vectorised signal pipelines.
Data freshness
Real-Time Central Bank Feeds
Announcement data is delivered in real time, within 50 milliseconds of official central bank and statistical agency publication — FRED, ECB, RBA, BoE, SNB, BoJ, BoC, and RBNZ. No intermediary delays. Build live signal monitors, rate differential dashboards, or event-triggered execution logic without stale inputs.
Data quality
Normalized Across Sources
Each indicator uses consistent units, field names, and JSON schema across all supported currencies.
No currency-specific parsing logic. Responses convert directly to
pd.DataFrame with
ISO 8601 timestamps — ready for resample(),
rolling(), and cross-currency spread calculations.
Integration
Built for Research Pipelines
Sync and async Python clients, REST endpoints, and a Postman collection for rapid prototyping. Use the same data model in a Jupyter notebook, a scheduled Airflow job, or a live trading signal engine — no schema changes required between environments.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to common questions about FXMacroData.
Data & Coverage
How real-time is the data?
Announcement data is delivered in real time, within 50 milliseconds of official central bank publication.
Which data sources are included?
FXMacroData aggregates from FRED (Federal Reserve), ECB, RBA, and other major central banks worldwide.
Which endpoints are free vs paid?
USD endpoints are available free without an API key. Multi-currency access and full indicator depth require a paid subscription and API key.
Billing & Subscription
Does the free trial require a credit card?
Yes. The 14-day trial requires a valid credit card at signup.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, you can cancel from your subscription settings before your next billing cycle.
What happens when the free trial ends?
Your subscription automatically converts to the paid plan unless cancelled before trial end. You can manage this in your billing settings.
Quant & Backtesting
Is the data point-in-time / free of lookahead bias?
Yes. Every release includes an announcement_datetime field — the actual time the data was made public. When you slice your dataset to a given date, you only see releases published by that point, making it directly usable in event-driven backtests.
Can I use this with pandas or backtesting frameworks?
Yes. All API responses return clean JSON that converts directly to a pd.DataFrame. Consistent schema across supported currencies allows pd.concat() without reformatting. Works with vectorbt, backtrader, and custom event-study pipelines.
Technical & Support
Do you support other programming languages?
Yes. The official Python SDK is available via pip install fxmacrodata, and the REST API works from any language — Go, R, Java, C#, MATLAB, Rust, and more. See quickstart guides for examples in multiple languages.
What support is included?
All paid plans include email support for integration and data questions. See support response targets.
