Nick Perry shows how Claude Code builds a trading bot that automatically copies Congress members' stock trades, which are publicly disclosed. You set up a free Alpaca practice account, generate API keys, paste them into Claude, and the bot runs on its own, sending trades to your inbox.

Never ever hire a developer again until you see what Claude Code just did, because it builds the whole thing for you. Claude Code can now track every trade Congress makes and copy those positions into your brokerage account on autopilot, because politicians have to publish every trade and key committee members see policy moves before anybody else. So first, head to alpaca.markets and create a free account, which gives you $50,000 in practice money to to test with zero risk. Then, generate your API keys and copy the 3 values. Now, open the Claude desktop app, make a fresh folder, and paste those keys in. Finally, give it the prompt, which tells Claude to build the bot, schedule itself, and run the trades. So you just check your inbox. While everyone else is gambling on tips, you're trading alongside the people who see what's coming next. Comment "need" and I'll send you the full playbook.
