Needs: Alpaca keys, paper by default
Claude Code skills for trading and markets.
56 skills from 14 GitHub repos. We read every SKILL.md and sorted them by what they can do with your money: 3 can send real orders, 2 only simulate, 3 read your broker account or charting app, and 48 research, screen or plan. 42 run with no key or account. Within each group, most installed first, then by repo stars.
Where to start
- For research only: tradermonty/claude-trading-skills (3,672 stars, MIT). Screeners such as CANSLIM, market breadth, backtest review and trade plans; it places no orders, and four skills need a free FMP key.
- For a full day trading workflow on a paper account: Jakeschincariol/day-trader-skill (5,823 stars). Scanner, news, entry, exit and risk skills, plus trader-broker, which sends Alpaca orders on paper by default after three approvals.
- For investing alongside people you follow: Jakeschincariol/trader-skill (1,476 stars), the same author's longer horizon pack. It copies a 13F filer, reads Congress trade disclosures and rebalances to your budget, all from public data with no key, and it places no orders.
- For real crypto orders with the strictest gates: galleonlabs/hypergrok-trading-desk on Hyperliquid. Research needs no key; sending an order needs a separate API wallet and an approval outside the chat.

How to use trading skills safely
Start on a paper account
The one Alpaca order skill here trades paper by default and tells you to create paper keys, which are separate from live keys. The Interactive Brokers skills default to port 7497, the paper session; live is 7496. Stay on paper until the logs show the orders you expected. Source: trader-broker SKILL.md · ib-account SKILL.md
Keep keys in environment variables
Both order skills read keys from the environment and forbid pasting them into the chat. The Hyperliquid desk also refuses to send from a main-wallet key and expects a separate API wallet. Source: trader-broker SKILL.md · desk-execution-protocol SKILL.md
Put an approval step outside the chat
trader-broker needs three gates per order: a risk check that passed that exact order, your typed yes, and Claude Desktop's own approval prompt, which it gets by setting the order tool to Needs approval. desk-execution-protocol refuses to send when it cannot confirm such an out-of-band gate, even with approval in the chat. Source: trader-broker SKILL.md · desk-execution-protocol SKILL.md
Know what data you are getting
Most skills here run with no key at all, on free sources such as Yahoo Finance, SEC EDGAR, CoinGecko or AKShare. Free quotes can be delayed, as trader-alerts says in its description. Four tradermonty skills need an FMP key, whose free tier allows 250 calls a day. Source: trader-alerts SKILL.md · canslim-screener SKILL.md
Install only the skills you will use
Claude Code reads each skill's short description at startup and loads the full instructions when a task matches, so an unused skill costs little. Any installed skill can be picked when a task matches its description, so leave order skills out of projects that only do research. Source: Claude Code docs: Skills
Questions about Claude Code trading skills
Can a Claude Code skill place real trades?
Yes. 3 of the 56 here can: trader-broker sends Alpaca orders, paper by default, and the two Hyperliquid desk skills send or cancel orders on that exchange. All three refuse to act without your approval of the exact order. Source: trader-broker SKILL.md
Which trading skills work without an API key?
42 of the 56. They use free sources such as Yahoo Finance, SEC EDGAR, CoinGecko, Hyperliquid's public data or AKShare. Each card above says what it needs. Source: crypto-regime-analyzer SKILL.md
What is tradermonty/claude-trading-skills?
An MIT-licensed repo of trading skills with 3,672 GitHub stars: screeners such as CANSLIM and dividend-growth pullbacks, market breadth and crypto regime scores, backtest review and breakout trade plans. 10 of its skills passed our catalog review and are listed here; none of them places orders. Source: tradermonty/claude-trading-skills
Are there skills for China A-shares?
8 here focus on A-shares: market data, a local paper-trading service and swing strategies through AKShare, plus supply-chain bottleneck research. None places real orders. Source: a-share-skill
How do I install one?
Copy the install command on its card into a terminal. It puts the skill folder where Claude Code finds it, and Claude Code loads the skill when a task matches its description. Source: Claude Code docs: Skills
Checked 2026-11-06 by reading each skill's SKILL.md on GitHub; we did not run them. Stars from GitHub. None of this is investment advice.
