Standard registration: email and password.

Choosing a partner broker

Elirox works free with XM and Exness. Other brokers work too, but via an Elirox subscription.

If you already have an XM or Exness account

1. After registering, go to the Accounts section.
2. Click Connect a trading account.
3. Select your broker and follow the prompts.

Connecting takes 3 minutes.

If you don't have an XM or Exness account yet

• XM: open an account →
• Exness: open an account →

A demo opens in 2 minutes, and the pairing works great on demo.

If you use a different broker

We recommend opening a demo at XM or Exness first to test the pairing without a subscription. If you decide to stay with your current broker, Elirox supports it on a paid subscription.

2. Go to the Body tab.
3. In the email and password fields enter the same details you used when registering in Step 0.
4. Click Send in the top-right corner.

4.1 · Open the config file

4.2 · Paste the config block

Copy the block below for your operating system, replace <YOUR_API_KEY> with the key from Step 3, and paste it into the file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elirox": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://app.elxapi.com/public/v1/mcp",
        "--header",
        "X-API-Key: <YOUR_API_KEY>"
      ]
    }
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elirox": {
      "command": "cmd",
      "args": [
        "/c",
        "npx",
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://app.elxapi.com/public/v1/mcp",
        "--header",
        "X-API-Key: <YOUR_API_KEY>"
      ]
    }
  }
}

If the file already has other MCP servers — add elirox inside the existing mcpServers block, remembering the comma before it:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "other_server": { ... },
    "elirox": { ... }
  }
}

4.3 · Restart Claude Desktop

Save the file and fully quit Claude Desktop (not minimize — quit completely: Cmd+Q on Mac, or File → Exit on Windows). Then open it again.

4.4 · Check the connection

Type in Claude:

If the pairing works, Claude will call the MCP tools and return your account data.
