New · Claude Desktop

Talk to your trading desk.

Connect Claude Desktop to a running TickForge and ask about your account, positions, charts, and the market in plain English — then place orders just by describing them. It is powered by MCP, the open standard that lets Claude securely use TickForge as a tool.

  • Ask about your book

    "What are my open positions and total P&L right now?" Claude reads your live data and walks you through it.

  • Briefings and chart reads

    Summarize the news on everything you hold, or talk through a setup — where support is, where your risk is, and a sensible stop.

  • Order entry you approve

    Describe a trade and Claude proposes it; TickForge pops a confirmation showing the exact order. Nothing reaches your broker until you approve.

  • Smart Alerts that watch for you

    "Tell me when AAPL reclaims VWAP." TickForge watches the live tape and fires a desktop notification — alerts notify you, they never trade.

Built-in safety — The connection is local to your machine and token-protected — your account data is never sent to a TickForge server to make this work. You approve every order, and no password or login token is ever exposed to Claude.

It is not an automated trading bot: every action is one you asked for and approved. Claude reads a live snapshot when you ask — TickForge does the real-time watching. Needs the app open and signed in.

We can't see your trades. By design.

TickForge knows your email address. That's it.

Your IBKR account data never touches our servers. The desktop app connects to your own TWS or IB Gateway running on your machine — your positions, balances, orders, and market data are displayed live and are not transmitted to any TickForge system.

Your IBKR credentials are never entered into TickForge. You sign in to TWS or IB Gateway with Interactive Brokers directly; TickForge only talks to the already-authenticated session on your computer.

Workspace

  • Every widget's position, symbol, and indicators restored on startup
  • Guided onboarding wizard — connects TWS/IB Gateway, seeds starter layouts
  • Full UI in English, Spanish, German, and Portuguese (Brazil)
