Summary
Michael Automates walks through building a fully automated crypto and stock trading system by connecting Claude to the Signum platform via MCP (Model Context Protocol), then linking Signum to the HyperLiquid futures exchange. Rather than the traditional TradingView approach — where a trader must manually select assets and configure alerts — this setup delegates asset selection, position sizing, and trade execution entirely to Claude, which queries Signum’s Trend Radar data on a daily schedule to identify long and short opportunities autonomously.
The technical setup covers creating a Signum account, generating a HyperLiquid API key and wallet address, installing the Signum MCP connector inside Claude Desktop, choosing Claude Sonnet 4.6 as the model (noted for its diagram-generation capability), and configuring Claude Routines to trigger the trading prompt on a set schedule without user intervention. The presenter shares backtest figures from their Gaussian Channel Trend Radar strategy — 7,492% profit with 35.6% maximum drawdown across 2,689 trades since January 2018 — and states the system is running with real money.
The video also demonstrates using Claude to summarize a live Signum account, retrieve bot statuses, and render a pie chart of fund distribution — illustrating how MCP gives Claude read/write access to the full trading account in a conversational interface. Additional stock-focused prompts that reportedly outperform the S&P 500 are referenced for viewers interested in equities.
