Gainium MCP server

by Gainium · official

Lets your AI check and manage your Gainium crypto trading bots, deals and balances for you.

This is a helper made by Gainium, the crypto trading bot platform. It connects your AI assistant to your Gainium account so you can ask about your bots and deals in plain words instead of clicking around the website. It is handy if you already run DCA, Combo or Grid bots on Gainium and want a quicker way to check and adjust them.

What is an MCP server? The 30-second version

On its own, your AI can only chat with you. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to an app. This one connects your AI to Gainium, so it can look up your bots, deals, balances and market data, and make changes when you ask. You set it up once, and then you just talk to your AI like normal.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI something about your Gainium account, like how your bots are doing. Your AI passes that request to this helper. The helper signs in to Gainium with your API keys and asks Gainium for the information or makes the change. Then it hands the answer back to your AI, which explains it to you in the chat. You never have to open the Gainium site yourself for these tasks.

Flow diagram: you ask your AI “How are my crypto bots doing?”, the Gainium MCP server connects it to Gainium, and you get back answers in your chat.

What you can do with it

List your DCA, Combo and Grid bots and see their settings
Start, stop, archive or restore a bot
Create, clone or update a bot
List and inspect your deals, and close one or add funds to it
Check your balances and connected exchanges
Run a backtest on a strategy
Look at the crypto screener for market numbers

Try asking your AI

“Show me all my active DCA bots and how much profit each one has made”
“Stop the Grid bot called BTC range and tell me its current deal”
“What is my USDT balance across all connected exchanges?”
“Run a backtest for my Combo bot over the last 3 months”

What it gives back to you

You get answers written in the chat, like a list of bots with their names and profit, or a summary of one deal. For actions, it tells you what it changed, for example that a bot was stopped or a deal was closed. Backtests come back as results and numbers you can read in the conversation.

Before you start

What you need

A Gainium account
An API key pair from your Gainium API settings page (a kind of username and password for apps, which you create for free on the site)
An AI assistant that supports MCP servers, like Claude Desktop or VS Code

Good to know

With a write key this can start, stop, change or close real trading bots and deals, so check what your AI is about to do before you say yes, and use a read-only key if you only want to look.

Install it with your AI

Add Gainium MCP server to your AI, no technical skills needed

You don't install anything by hand. You copy one prompt, paste it into an AI that can work on your computer, and it checks, installs and connects the server for you, asking you when it needs something.

Sign in to get the install prompt

Members get a ready-made prompt that lets the Claude desktop app check Gainium MCP server, install it and connect it for them, step by step. You don't need any technical skills: you copy, paste and answer a few questions. Your connected AI can also find and install any of the 4,066 MCP servers here for you.
