Supports USDT-M futures, Coin-M futures, and Spot markets. ## What's New in v1.2.0 1. **`list_symbols` tool** — Discover all available trading pairs, filtered by contract type. No more guessing symbol names. 2. **Config file (`~/.phemexrc`)** — Store API credentials persistently. No need to `export` env vars every session. 3. **`--help` for every tool** — Run `phemex-cli <tool> --help` to see parameters, defaults, and usage examples inline. 4. **Friendly field names** — API field suffixes (`closeRp`, `fundingRateRr`) are mapped to readable names (`closePrice`, `fundingRate`). Use `--raw` to get the original names. 5. **Enhanced error messages** — Errors now include `suggestion` and `tip` fields with actionable guidance instead of raw API codes. ## Before you start Ensure you have the latest version installed: ```bash npm install -g phemex-trade-mcp@latest ``` ## How to call tools ```bash phemex-cli <tool_name> --param1 value1 --param2 value2 ``` Or with JSON args: ```bash phemex-cli <tool_name> '{"param1":"value1","param2":"value2"}' ``` Output is always JSON. Credentials are loaded from environment variables or `~/.phemexrc` (see Setup). ### Tool help Every tool supports `--help` with full parameter docs and examples: ```bash phemex-cli place_order --help ``` Output: ``` Usage: phemex-cli place_order [options] Place an order (Market, Limit, Stop, StopLimit) Required Parameters: --symbol <string> Trading pair (e.g. BTCUSDT) --side <string> Buy or Sell --orderQty <number> Quantity. linear: base amount (0.01 = 0.01 BTC). ... --ordType <string> Order type: Market, Limit, Stop, StopLimit Optional Parameters: --price <number> Limit price (required for Limit/StopLimit) --timeInForce <string> GoodTillCancel, PostOnly, ... [default: GoodTillCancel] --reduceOnly <boolean> Only reduce position [default: false] ... Examples: phemex-cli place_order --symbol BTCUSDT --side Buy --orderQty 0.01 --ordType Market phemex-cli place_order --symbol BTCUSDT --side Sell --orderQty 0.01 --ordType Limit --price 90000 --timeInForce PostOnly ``` More help examples: ```bash phemex-cli get_ticker --help # see params for price ticker phemex-cli get_klines --help # see resolution values for candlesticks phemex-cli set_leverage --help # see leverage param format phemex-cli transfer_funds --help # see direction values phemex-cli list_symbols --help # see contractType filter ``` ### Friendly field names By default, output uses readable field names: ```bash phemex-cli get_ticker --symbol BTCUSDT ``` ```json { "closePrice": "70549.9", "openPrice": "70192.7", "highPrice": "70750", "lowPrice": "69160", "markPrice": "70549.9", "fundingRate": "-0.00003417", "volume": "5303.525", "turnover": "371204351.5978" } ``` Use `--raw` to get original API field names (for scripts that depend on old format): ```bash phemex-cli get_ticker --symbol BTCUSDT --raw ``` ```json { "closeRp": "70549.9", "openRp": "70192.7", "highRp": "70750", "lowRp": "69160", "markPriceRp": "70549.9", "fundingRateRr": "-0.00003417", "volumeRq": "5303.525", "turnoverRv": "371204351.5978" } ``` **Field name mapping reference:** | Suffix | Meaning | Example | Mapped to | |--------|---------|---------|-----------| | `Rp` | Real Price | `closeRp` | `closePrice` | | `Rv` | Real Value | `accountBalanceRv` | `accountBalance` | | `Rr` | Real Rate | `fundingRateRr` | `fundingRate` | | `Rq` | Real Quantity | `volumeRq` | `volume` | ## Contract types Every tool accepts an optional `--contractType` flag: - `linear` (default) — USDT-M perpetual futures. Symbols end in USDT (e.g. BTCUSDT). - `inverse` — Coin-M perpetual futures. Symbols end in USD (e.g. BTCUSD). - `spot` — Spot trading. Symbols end in USDT (e.g. BTCUSDT). The server auto-prefixes `s` for the API. ## Tools ### Market data (no auth needed) - `get_ticker` — 24hr price ticker. Example: `phemex-cli get_ticker --symbol BTCUSDT` - `get_orderbook` — Order book (30 levels). Example: `phemex-cli get_orderbook --symbol BTCUSDT` - `get_klines` — Candlestick data. Example: `phemex-cli get_klines --symbol BTCUSDT --resolution 3600 --limit 100` - `get_recent_trades` — Recent trades. Example: `phemex-cli get_recent_trades --symbol BTCUSDT` - `get_funding_rate` — Funding rate history. Example: `phemex-cli get_funding_rate --symbol .BTCFR8H --limit 20` ### Account (read-only, auth required) - `get_account` — Balance and margin info. Example: `phemex-cli get_account --currency USDT` - `get_spot_wallet` — Spot wallet balances. Example: `phemex-cli get_spot_wallet` - `get_positions` — Current positions with PnL. Example: `phemex-cli get_positions --currency USDT` - `get_open_orders` — Open orders. Example: `phemex-cli get_open_orders --symbol BTCUSDT` - `get_order_history` — Closed/filled orders. Example: `phemex-cli get_order_history --symbol BTCUSDT --limit 50` - `get_trades` — Trade execution history. Example: `phemex-cli get_trades --symbol BTCUSDT --limit 50` ### Trading (auth required) - `place_order` — Place an order (Market, Limit, Stop, StopLimit). Key params: `--symbol`, `--side` (Buy/Sell), `--orderQty`, `--ordType`, `--price` (Limit/StopLimit), `--stopPx` (Stop/StopLimit), `--timeInForce` (GoodTillCancel/PostOnly/ImmediateOrCancel/FillOrKill), `--reduceOnly`, `--posSide` (Long/Short/Merged), `--stopLoss`, `--takeProfit`, `--qtyType` (spot only). **orderQty units differ by contract type:** - `linear` (USDT-M): orderQty = base currency amount (e.g. `0.01` = 0.01 BTC). To buy 10 USDT worth, calculate qty = 10 / current price. - `inverse` (Coin-M): orderQty = number of contracts as integer (e.g. `10` = 10 contracts). Each contract has a fixed USD value (e.g. 1 USD/contract for BTCUSD). - `spot`: depends on `--qtyType`. `ByBase` (default) = base currency (e.g. `0.01` = 0.01 BTC). `ByQuote` = quote currency (e.g. `50` = 50 USDT worth of BTC). - Example: `phemex-cli place_order --symbol BTCUSDT --side Buy --orderQty 0.01 --ordType Market` - `amend_order` — Modify an open order. Example: `phemex-cli amend_order --symbol BTCUSDT --orderID xxx --price 95000` - `cancel_order` — Cancel one order. Example: `phemex-cli cancel_order --symbol BTCUSDT --orderID xxx` - `cancel_all_orders` — Cancel all orders for a symbol. Example: `phemex-cli cancel_all_orders --symbol BTCUSDT` - `set_leverage` — Set leverage. Example: `phemex-cli set_leverage --symbol BTCUSDT --leverage 10` - `switch_pos_mode` — Switch OneWay/Hedged. Example: `phemex-cli switch_pos_mode --symbol BTCUSDT --targetPosMode OneWay` ### Transfers (auth required) - `transfer_funds` — Move funds between spot and futures. Example: `phemex-cli transfer_funds --currency USDT --amount 100 --direction spot_to_futures` - `get_transfer_history` — Transfer history. Example: `phemex-cli get_transfer_history --currency USDT --limit 20` ### Utility - `list_symbols` — List all available trading symbols, grouped by contract type. ```bash # List all symbols (linear, inverse, spot) phemex-cli list_symbols # Only USDT-M perpetual futures phemex-cli list_symbols --contractType linear # Only Coin-M perpetual futures phemex-cli list_symbols --contractType inverse # Only spot pairs phemex-cli list_symbols --contractType spot ``` Example output: ```json { "linear": ["BTCUSDT", "ETHUSDT", "SOLUSDT", "BNBUSDT", ...], "inverse": ["BTCUSD", "ETHUSD", ...], "spot": ["BTCUSDT", "ETHUSDT", ...] } ``` Use `list_symbols` to discover valid symbol names before trading. This avoids "invalid symbol" errors. ## Error messages Errors return structured JSON with actionable guidance. Examples: **Invalid symbol:** ```bash phemex-cli get_ticker --symbol INVALIDXXX ``` ```json { "error": "Invalid symbol: INVALIDXXX", "code": 6001, "suggestion": "Symbol \"INVALIDXXX\" is not recognized. Check spelling and contract type.", "tip": "Run \"phemex-cli list_symbols\" to see all available symbols." } ``` **Common typo (BTCUSD instead of BTCUSDT):** ```bash phemex-cli get_ticker --symbol BTCUSD ``` ```json { "error": "Invalid symbol: BTCUSD", "code": 6001, "suggestion": "Did you mean BTCUSDT? For USDT perpetuals, use symbols ending in USDT (e.g. BTCUSDT).", "tip": "Run \"phemex-cli list_symbols\" to see all available symbols." } ``` **Order quantity too large:** ```json { "error": "Order quantity too large", "code": "TE_QTY_TOO_LARGE", "suggestion": "The order quantity exceeds the maximum allowed for BTCUSDT.", "tip": "Reduce --orderQty or check the symbol's max order size on Phemex." } ``` **Other enhanced errors:** insufficient balance, invalid API key, rate limiting, invalid leverage, order not found — all include `suggestion` and `tip` fields. ## Safety rules 1. **Always confirm before placing orders.** Before calling `place_order`, show the user exactly what the order will do: symbol, side, quantity, type, price. Ask for confirmation. 2. **Always confirm before cancelling all orders.** Before calling `cancel_all_orders`, list the open orders first and confirm with the user. 3. **Explain leverage changes.** Before calling `set_leverage`, explain the implications (higher leverage = higher liquidation risk). 4. **Show context before trading.** Before suggesting a trade, show current positions and account balance so the user can make an informed decision. 5. **Never auto-trade.** Do not place orders without explicit user instruction. ## Common workflows ### Check a price ```bash phemex-cli get_ticker --symbol BTCUSDT ``` ### Discover available symbols ```bash phemex-cli list_symbols --contractType linear ``` ### Place a market buy (USDT-M futures) ```bash phemex-cli place_order --symbol BTCUSDT --side Buy --orderQty 0.01 --ordType Market ``` ### Place a limit sell (Coin-M futures) ```bash phemex-cli place_order --symbol BTCUSD --side Sell --orderQty 10 --ordType Limit --price 100000 --contractType inverse ``` ### Buy spot ```bash phemex-cli place_order --symbol BTCUSDT --side Buy --orderQty 10 --ordType Market --contractType spot --qtyType ByQuote ``` ### Check positions ```bash phemex-cli get_positions --currency USDT ``` ### Get help for any command ```bash phemex-cli place_order --help ``` ## Setup ### Option 1: Config file (recommended) Create `~/.phemexrc` — credentials persist across sessions without exporting env vars: ```bash # ~/.phemexrc PHEMEX_API_KEY=your-api-key PHEMEX_API_SECRET=your-api-secret PHEMEX_API_URL=https://api.phemex.com # Optional: max order value limit (USD) PHEMEX_MAX_ORDER_VALUE=1000 ``` That's it. All `phemex-cli` commands will pick up these values automatically. ### Option 2: Environment variables ```bash export PHEMEX_API_KEY=your-api-key export PHEMEX_API_SECRET=your-api-secret export PHEMEX_API_URL=https://api.phemex.com ``` ### Configuration priority Settings are loaded in this order (highest priority first): 1. Command-line arguments 2. Environment variables 3. `~/.phemexrc` config file 4. Defaults (testnet URL) This means env vars always override the config file, so you can safely keep production creds in `~/.phemexrc` and temporarily override with `PHEMEX_API_URL=https://testnet-api.phemex.com phemex-cli ...` for testing. ### Steps 1. Create a Phemex account at https://phemex.com 2. Create an API key (Account → API Management) 3. Save credentials to `~/.phemexrc` or export as environment variables 4. Verify: `phemex-cli list_symbols --contractType linear` should return symbols 5. Optionally set `PHEMEX_API_URL` (defaults to testnet `https://testnet-api.phemex.com` for safety; set to `https://api.phemex.com` for real trading) 6. Optionally set `PHEMEX_MAX_ORDER_VALUE` to limit maximum order size (USD)
