Funding Rate Arbitrage via MCP Server
Stop switching tabs. Stop scanning tables. Just tell your AI what you want.
If you're doing delta-neutral funding rate arbitrage across DEXes, this is for you. The ProFunding MCP server gives your AI live rates from 14+ perp DEXes including Hyperliquid, Lighter, Aster, Extended, Variational, and more. It finds the best trades, opens positions, monitors them 24/7, and closes when conditions change. You talk. It trades.
What your AI can do
These aren't commands you need to memorize. Just talk naturally. Your AI figures out which tools to use.
Find the best opportunity
"What's the best funding arb right now?" Your AI searches 14 DEXes, checks liquidity, runs a backtest, and tells you exactly which pair to trade and why.
"Find me a delta-neutral trade above 100% APR with good liquidity"
Open and close positions
Your AI opens both legs of a delta-neutral trade in one command. Market orders, proper sizing, leverage. Close when you're done — market, limit, or TWAP.
"Open $500 delta-neutral on ETH, long Hyperliquid short Lighter"
24/7 position monitoring
Set conditions and walk away. The backend watches your positions every 60 seconds. Funding flips? APR drops? PnL threshold hit? You get a Telegram alert or automatic close.
"Watch my ETH position. Alert me if funding flips. Auto-close if PnL drops below -5%"
60 days of history on every pair
60 days of funding rate history across every DEX. Your AI breaks down stability, trend direction, liquidity depth, and spread risk for any pair you ask about.
"Analyze PROVE on Hyperliquid vs Aster — is the APR sustainable?"
Backtest before you trade
Run historical simulations on any pair and time range. See what your PnL would have been. Your AI factors in fees, slippage, and funding rate volatility.
"Backtest ETH on HL/Lighter for the last 30 days with $1000"
Check everything in one question
Balances, open positions, live PnL — across all your connected exchanges. One question instead of five browser tabs.
"How are my positions doing?" or "Am I up or down on Hyperliquid?"
How it works
Install in 30 seconds
One pip install. Paste your API key into Claude Desktop or Claude Code config. Done.
Ask it anything
Ask about opportunities. Tell it to open a trade. Set up monitoring. Natural language, not commands.
It watches while you sleep
Positions are monitored 24/7 on our servers. Funding flips? You get a Telegram alert. Or it auto-closes. Your call.
AI trading vs manual dashboard
The dashboard shows you data. Your AI acts on it.
| Dashboard | AI + MCP | |
|---|---|---|
| Find best opportunity | Sort, filter, pick from a table | “What's the best trade?” |
| Analyze a pair | Open chart, run backtest, check depth separately | “Analyze ETH on HL vs Lighter” |
| Open delta-neutral | Set size, leverage, click open | “Open $500 on that pair” |
| Monitor positions | Keep browser open | 24/7 server-side, Telegram alerts |
| Funding flips negative | Check manually, close yourself | Auto-close on conditions |

Frequently asked questions
What is an MCP server?
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude connect to external tools and data sources. The ProFunding MCP server gives your AI access to live funding rate data, trading execution, and position monitoring across 14+ perpetual DEXes.
What AI assistants work with ProFunding MCP?
Any MCP-compatible client: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and others. If your AI supports MCP, it can use ProFunding.
Is ProFunding MCP free?
Yes. Every tool is free — trading, monitoring, analytics, backtesting, smart scoring, all of it. Generate an API key and start using it. No credit card, no trial, no limits on features.
What is delta-neutral funding rate arbitrage?
You open equal long and short positions on different DEXes so price moves cancel out. Your profit comes from the funding rate difference between exchanges. ProFunding finds these opportunities across 14+ DEXes and lets your AI execute them.
Which DEXes are supported?
Hyperliquid, Lighter, Aster, Extended, Variational, Pacifica, EdgeX, Ethereal, Hibachi, Nado, and more. Trading execution is currently live on Hyperliquid and Lighter, with more DEXes shipping soon.
Are my API keys and credentials secure?
Yes. Exchange credentials are encrypted with AES-256-GCM using envelope encryption (per-credential key + master key). They are never stored unencrypted. Your MCP API key is wallet-scoped and can be regenerated anytime.
Do I need to keep my browser open?
No. Once you set up position monitoring, our backend watches your positions 24/7. You get Telegram alerts when conditions trigger. Your browser and AI assistant can be closed.
