Runs on
/home/ubuntu/nse-public-mcp/— completely isolated from/home/ubuntu/swingtrader/.
1. Clone
cd /home/ubuntu
git clone https://github.com/alokbarnwal/nse-public-mcp.git
cd nse-public-mcp
2. Create database and user
sudo mysql <<'SQL'
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS nse_public CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci;
CREATE USER IF NOT EXISTS 'nse_writer'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'CHANGE_ME_STRONG_PASSWORD';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON nse_public.* TO 'nse_writer'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
SQL
3. Apply schema
mysql -u nse_writer -p nse_public < db/schema.sql
mysql -u nse_writer -p nse_public < db/schema_indicators.sql
mysql -u nse_writer -p nse_public < db/schema_price_action.sql
4. Install dependencies
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
5. Configure environment
cp .env.example .env
chmod 600 .env
nano .env # set DB_PASSWORD to match step 2
6. (Optional) Refresh full Nifty 500 list
The repo ships with the top ~100 stocks hardcoded. To expand to all 500:
python -m config.stocks --refresh # fetches NSE archives, rewrites config/stocks.py
7. Load stock universe into DB
python -m config.stocks --load-to-db
8. Backfill historical data (long-running, use screen/tmux)
screen -S backfill
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m data.backfill --all
# Ctrl-A D to detach. Reattach: screen -r backfill
Expected runtime:
daily 5y × 500: ~30 min15min 2y × 500: ~2 h5min 6mo × 500: ~1 h
If anything fails, the failure list is written to backfill_failures_<timeframe>.json. Re-run:
python -m data.backfill --timeframe 15min --resume
8b. Bulk-compute indicators (long-running, use screen/tmux)
After the candle backfill completes, populate the indicators table for all 500 stocks across all 3 timeframes:
screen -S indicators
cd /home/ubuntu/nse-public-mcp
python3 -m indicators.runner --all
# Ctrl-A D to detach
Expected runtime: ~30–45 min. Idempotent — safe to re-run if interrupted.
8c. Bulk-compute price action (long-running, use screen/tmux)
After indicators are populated, compute price-action features (zones, S/R, patterns, breakouts, fibs, gaps, volume profile) for all 500 stocks across all 3 timeframes:
screen -S price_action
cd /home/ubuntu/nse-public-mcp
python3 -m price_action.runner --timeframe daily --all-features
python3 -m price_action.runner --timeframe 15min --all-features
python3 -m price_action.runner --timeframe 5min --all-features
# Ctrl-A D to detach
Expected runtime: ~60–90 min total. Idempotent — safe to re-run if interrupted.
9. Install crontab
crontab -e
Add:
# nse-public-mcp candle updaters

Cron times are server-local. Verify the server is on IST (
timedatectl) — if not, shift the hour ranges. The 5-min indicator cron is offset to2-57/5so it runs ~2 minutes aftercron_5minand never reads stale candles. The price-action 5-min cron is offset to9-54/15(minutes 9, 24, 39, 54) so it runs ~2 minutes after eachcron_indicators_5minslot.
10. Verification
mysql -u nse_writer -p nse_public <<'SQL'
SELECT 'daily' AS tf, COUNT(*) AS n FROM candles_daily
UNION ALL SELECT '15min', COUNT(*) FROM candles_15min
UNION ALL SELECT '5min', COUNT(*) FROM candles_5min;
-- Per-stock coverage on daily — flag any with < 1000 rows (~4 trading years)
SELECT symbol, COUNT(*) AS n
FROM candles_daily
GROUP BY symbol
HAVING n < 1000
ORDER BY n;
-- Latest data freshness
SELECT MIN(candle_date) AS earliest, MAX(candle_date) AS latest
FROM candles_daily;
-- Recent cron health
SELECT job_type, timeframe, symbols_success, symbols_failed, started_at, duration_seconds
FROM fetch_log
ORDER BY started_at DESC
LIMIT 20;

Operational Notes
- Be respectful to Yahoo Finance. The fetcher sleeps 1–3 s between requests and retries with backoff. Don't reduce these.
- Idempotent. All inserts are
INSERT … ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE. Replaying a cron tick or rerunning backfill is safe. - Holiday calendar lives in
config/holidays.py. Update it once a year when NSE publishes the next year's list. - Retention cleanup runs at the end of
jobs/cron_daily.py. Daily candles older than 5 y, 15min older than 2 y, 5min older than 6 mo are purged.
