⇱ Building a Python-based Forex Scraper and MCP Server: Forex-Pytory - DEV Community


Hi everyone!

I’m Ata Can, a Full Stack Software Specialist, and I’m excited to share one of my latest open-source projects: Forex-Pytory.

I developed this project to streamline the process of scraping economic event data from Forex Factory. Instead of relying on manual data collection, I wanted to build a robust, modular tool that handles multiple sources efficiently.

Key features of Forex-Pytory:

πŸ‘‰πŸ» Modular Scrapers: It includes built-in scrapers for various financial data sources.

πŸ‘‰πŸ» CLI & Library Usage: Designed to be used either as a command-line tool or as a Python library in larger projects.

πŸ‘‰πŸ» MCP Integration: One of the most interesting aspects is the implementation of an MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server, which allows AI models to interact directly with real-time economic data.

You can check out the source code and documentation on GitHub: forex-pytory

I’m currently focusing on improving the scraping reliability and exploring new integrations. If you’re interested in financial data engineering or MCP, I’d love to hear your thoughts or see your contributions!

Let's connect and build something cool!
