Learn how to start AI trading as a beginner. In this complete course, I build an automated AI trading system using Claude, TradingView and TradingKit—then launch it on a brand-new $10,000 account.
Five years ago, I trusted trading bots I didn’t properly understand. When the Luna crash happened, those black-box systems kept buying all the way down.
That experience completely changed how I approach automated trading.
In this video, I’m sharing the complete process I now use to research, backtest, validate and automate trading strategies. You don’t need to write code: Claude Code performs the technical work while TradingKit provides the strategy-testing tools and TradingView data.
You’ll also see me deposit $10,000 into a new trading account and launch a completely public AI trading challenge. I’ll report the profits, losses, drawdowns and open trades in future videos—whether the system succeeds or fails.
## In this video, you’ll discover:
âś… The accounts and tools required to start AI trading
âś… How to connect Claude Code to TradingKit
âś… How to make Claude research and backtest strategies automatically
âś… The rules I use to reject weak or unrealistic backtests
âś… How to evaluate profit factor, drawdown, trade count and buy-and-hold performance
âś… Why profitable backtests can still fail in live markets
âś… How incubation and forward testing protect your capital
âś… How to verify an AI-generated strategy inside TradingView
âś… How to connect TradingView alerts to your broker using Trigger.trade
âś… How to automate entries, stop losses, take profits and position sizing
âś… The five lessons I learned from testing more than 2,000 strategies

⚠️ Everything in this video is provided for education and entertainment only—not financial advice. AI can research ideas, build strategies and automate workflows, but no backtest guarantees future performance. Always forward-test strategies, account for fees and slippage, and only trade capital you can afford to lose.
The edge isn’t blindly asking AI to trade.
The edge is giving AI the right tools, testing every assumption and building transparent systems you actually understand.
Trade smarter.
Test everything.
Let the data do the talking.
