Claude Trading Skills

Claude Trading Skills is a packaged skill set for Claude Code that adds technical analysis, options strategy evaluation, and risk management capabilities to your coding agent. Built by TraderMonty, it provides structured knowledge that lets Claude reason about market conditions, evaluate trade setups, and apply disciplined risk frameworks — all through natural language commands.

The skill covers core areas that active traders rely on daily. For technical analysis, it teaches the agent to identify chart patterns, calculate common indicators (moving averages, RSI, MACD), and assess support and resistance levels. On the options side, it includes strategy templates for directional plays, income generation, and hedging. The risk management module adds position sizing rules, portfolio allocation limits, and drawdown protection logic that the agent can apply to any proposed trade.

Where Claude Trading Skills fits into a CLI trading workflow is as the analysis layer. Pair it with a market data MCP server to feed live quotes and an execution CLI or MCP to place orders. The skill handles the reasoning in between — turning raw data into structured trade ideas with defined risk parameters. This separation of concerns keeps your workflow modular and auditable.
