In this video, I show you how to connect Claude AI to MetaTrader 5 using a MetaTrader MCP server.

We’ll set up Claude Desktop, install the MetaTrader MCP server with Python, configure the Claude Desktop JSON file, add the trading skill, test whether Claude can access MetaTrader, and then look at how you can create your own custom tools.

Important:
Start with a demo account only. Giving an AI assistant access to a trading terminal can be risky, especially if trade execution tools are enabled. Do not connect this to real capital unless you fully understand what the MCP server can do.

Risk Disclosure:
CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. The majority of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford the high risk of losing your money.
There is a possibility of losing all your initial capital. Automated or semi-automated trading tools are support tools only and do not guarantee profits or prevent losses. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
