Building a Financial Trading Bot with Claude and SnapTrade

Dino Angelov details building a financial trading bot using Anthropic's Claude and the MCP protocol, integrated with SnapTrade's API. While initially attempting to use Claude to write the MCP server, he found Gemini more effective. He ultimately leveraged the go-mcp framework for faster development, creating functionality to connect brokerage accounts, view portfolios, and execute trades. The author cautions users about the unpredictable nature of LLMs and the potential for accidental trades.
