Alpaca Paper Trading
Claude connectorCommunityPaper trading of stocks, options & crypto
Alpaca’s Claude connector provides direct access to paper trading execution via Alpaca's Trading API and Market Data API.
Connect Claude to your Alpaca paper account to place simulated trades across stocks, ETFs, options, and crypto. Monitor your positions, analyze market trends, and manage your account through natural language — for example, "Buy 10 shares of my best performing stock and tell me how it changed my buying power," or "Summarize my paper account performance this month." If you do not have an Alpaca account, open one today.
