tradermonty built 70 Claude Code skills for equity traders

An MIT open-source project called claude-trading-skills has passed 4,220 stars on GitHub. It is ranked 18th on Trendshift's daily list on 13 November 2026. The author, tradermonty, has packaged 70 Claude Code skills aimed at stock traders and investors. The project was created on 19 October 2025. The star count is the total, not a recent gain. The daily rank is the news. The collection is being picked up by more people today than a side project would be.

What the skills do

The collection is for a trader's day, not a developer's. The author says the project "started as a personal project to use AI to improve my own trading process". The README lists six workflows a reader can run:

• market-regime-daily, a 15-minute daily market check.
• core-portfolio-weekly, a long-term portfolio review.
• swing-opportunity-daily, a swing-trade screener for days when risk sits in a given range.
• trade-memory-loop, which records and learns from closed trades.
• monthly-performance-review, which adjusts a trader's own rules against the past month's results.
• Kanchi Dividend Workflow, an income portfolio routine.

Inside the workflows, there are 70-plus named skills. The project README groups them. Market regime: Market Breadth Analyzer, Uptrend Analyzer, Exposure Coach. Swing Opportunities: VCP Screener, CANSLIM Screener, Breakout Trade Planner. Trade Planning: Position Sizer, Technical Analyst, Pre-Trade Discipline Gate. Trade Memory: Trader Memory Core, Signal Postmortem, Weekly Performance Digest.

What the project is careful not to be

The README is clear about one thing. The author says the goal is "not to outsource buy/sell decisions to AI". The goal is to structure market review, risk management, trade planning, journaling, and continuous improvement. That line is the design choice the rest of the project turns on. Claude does the reading, the screening, the writing of notes, and the before-trade check against the trader's own rules. The decision stays with the trader. The Pre-Trade Discipline Gate is the clearest example. The trader runs it on themselves before pressing buy. The agent plays the second pair of eyes.

Why this ranking matters more than the star count

A repository that has been around for a year has had time to collect the stars. A Trendshift rank of 18 says the audience discovering it today is bigger than it was yesterday. The practical reading: Claude Code is being installed by people who are not writing software. They use it to formalise their own routine. A Claude skill for a stock trader is the next product category. It sits beside the ones built for developers, writers and marketers. Nothing about the collection depends on being a coder. A reader who runs Claude Code can clone the repository. They can point it at their own broker's exports. A daily routine can be running in an evening.
