EODHD APIs

@EODHD APIs show me US GDP growth, unemployment rate, and inflation for the last 4 quarters

Here's an illustrative summary of US macroeconomic indicators for Q1 2024 through Q4 2024: GDP growth averaged 2.3% (ranging 1.9%-2.8% quarterly), unemployment held steady between 3.7%-4.1%, and CPI inflation declined from 3.2% to 2.6% over the period. This data reflects the Federal Reserve's tightening cycle impact on both growth and price stability. The MCP returned quarterly snapshots with exact dates and values for each indicator.

This example demonstrates the Get Macro Indicators tool's ability to fetch country-level economic data across time ranges. Requires a valid EODHD API key with macro data access. Response structure and available indicators vary by country and subscription tier—some emerging markets have sparser historical coverage.

@EODHD APIs what's the current NAV, expense ratio, and top 5 holdings for VFIAX?

For VFIAX (Vanguard 500 Index Fund Admiral Shares), the illustrative response shows: NAV $428.51 as of last close, expense ratio 0.04%, and top holdings include AAPL (7.1%), MSFT (6.8%), AMZN (3.4%), NVDA (3.2%), and GOOGL (2.1%). The MCP also returned fund inception date, total assets under management, and year-to-date return. This data helps compare fund costs and concentration risk across portfolio candidates.

Showcases the Get Mutual Funds Data tool for retrieving fund fundamentals by ticker symbol. You must provide the correct mutual fund ticker—equity tickers won't work here. Data freshness depends on the fund's reporting schedule; NAV updates daily but holdings typically refresh quarterly.

@EODHD APIs stream live EUR/USD and GBP/USD prices, then alert me if EUR/USD drops below 1.0800

Illustrative WebSocket stream initiated for EUR/USD and GBP/USD. Live tick data flows in with bid/ask spreads and timestamps: EUR/USD currently 1.0823/1.0825, GBP/USD 1.2645/1.2647. The AI monitors the stream and would trigger an alert if EUR/USD bid falls below your 1.0800 threshold. This real-time feed enables event-driven workflows—like notifying a team channel when a currency pair breaches a technical level or updating a dashboard with sub-second latency.

Demonstrates the Get Real-Time FOREX WebSocket Stream tool for live currency pair monitoring. WebSocket connections consume API quota differently than REST calls—check your plan's concurrent stream limits. The AI can layer logic on top of the raw feed (thresholds, pattern detection), but you're responsible for managing connection lifecycle and reconnection logic if the stream drops.

When real-time WebSocket streams beat polling for user dashboards

A 6-person fintech startup building a portfolio tracker needs live US equity and forex prices without hammering rate limits. The EODHD MCP's WebSocket tools (US trades and forex streams) let you subscribe to specific symbols once and push updates to your dashboard as they arrive, instead of polling REST endpoints every few seconds. This works cleanly for up to 50-100 concurrent symbols—enough for most retail portfolio apps. If your user base watches 500+ tickers simultaneously or needs sub-second latency guarantees, you'll hit connection limits and need a dedicated market data vendor. For small-team MVPs tracking a handful of assets per user, the WebSocket approach keeps your API costs low and your dashboard responsive without custom streaming infrastructure.

Pull country-level economic data into analyst workflows without spreadsheet exports

A 3-person investment research shop writes weekly market commentary and needs GDP, inflation, and unemployment figures for 10-15 countries. The Get Macro Indicators tool pulls this data directly into Switchy threads, so analysts can compare indicators across date ranges without downloading CSVs or toggling between FRED and Trading Economics tabs. The tool returns structured JSON, which means you can pipe it into charts or summary prompts in the same workspace. This setup breaks down if you need sub-national data (state-level unemployment) or non-standard indicators—EODHD's macro coverage is broad but not exhaustive. For small teams writing reports that cite standard economic metrics, this MCP eliminates the export-paste-cite loop and keeps your data provenance in one thread.

When you need fund NAV history but don't need Bloomberg-level depth

A 2-person RIA firm compares mutual fund performance for client portfolios and needs historical NAV data without paying for institutional terminals. The Get Mutual Funds Data tool fetches time-series NAV, expense ratios, and holdings for US mutual funds by ticker, which covers 90% of retail fund comparisons. You can pull data for 5-10 funds in a single Switchy session and generate side-by-side performance tables without leaving the workspace. This falls short if you need real-time intraday NAV updates (most funds publish once daily) or obscure international funds outside EODHD's coverage. For small advisory teams running quarterly reviews with standard Vanguard, Fidelity, or Schwab funds, this MCP gives you the data layer without the $2k/month terminal cost.
