I Build Claude AI Crypto Trading Bot Step By Step Tutorial

Added: 2026-05-16

[00:00:00]In today's video, I'm going to break down the crypto AI agent day trading bot I built, and so far it's been one of the most consistent automated systems I've tested. I've tried a lot of different online income strategies over the years, but this setup has delivered some of the most interesting results I've seen. What makes this even more appealing is that the entire thing was built with AI assistance. So, even if you're not a developer or an experienced trader, most of the heavy lifting is already done for you. In this video, I'll show you what the bot does, how I set it up, and what the results look like after running it live.

[00:00:35]At a high-level, this bot scans decentralized exchanges for potential arbitrage opportunities and reacts automatically when it finds a setup that matches its conditions. In simple terms, it monitors on-chain market activity, tracks differences across liquidity pools, and looks for short-term inefficiencies it can take advantage of in real time.

[00:00:56]To get started, the first thing you'll need is a compatible wallet extension if you don't already have one installed.

[00:01:02]I'll be using MetaMask, but you can use any Web3 wallet that's supported. And if you're watching this on mobile, you can usually do the same thing through your wallet app's built-in browser.

[00:01:12]Once that's ready, head over to the platform I'm using to deploy the smart contract on Ethereum.

[00:01:17]I've linked everything you need in the description, so you can follow along.

[00:01:21]From there, create a new file and give it any name you want.

[00:01:28]This is the code I'll be using for the demonstration, and I've also linked the same version below in case you want to use it as a reference. It's open source, so if you want to review it yourself or run it through any audit tool you trust, feel free to do that. Go ahead and copy the code, then paste it into the file you just created.

[00:01:47]The script is fully commented, which makes it much easier to understand what each section is doing. At the top of the file, you'll see the compiler version.

[00:01:56]Make sure the version in the compiler settings matches exactly. If it doesn't, just switch it over before moving on.

[00:02:04]Once that's done, click compile.

[00:02:12]After the contract finishes compiling, connect your wallet.

[00:02:16]Go to this section. Select this option.

[00:02:21]Choose your wallet from the list and approve the connection request when it pops up.

[00:02:31]If everything connects properly, you should see your account details appear on the screen. From there, click here to continue.

[00:02:42]Approve the next prompt, then give it a moment for the confirmation message to show up in the console.

[00:02:55]Mhm, perfect.

[00:02:58]Once that's done, the control panel will appear here.

[00:03:01]As you can see, the interface is very clean and straightforward.

[00:03:05]Before starting anything, click here to review the deployment details. This is where you can make sure everything was set up correctly and confirm there were no issues during deployment. Once that page loads, open your wallet and compare the address shown there with the address displayed here. Make sure they match exactly.

[00:03:23]That confirms you're connected to the correct contract and interacting with the right deployment.

[00:03:29]Next, you'll need to fund the bot. For this setup, the minimum amount required is one Ethereum. In my own testing, I found that somewhere between 1 and 10 Ethereum was a solid range to work with, although there isn't really a strict upper limit. As I scaled higher, I started noticing diminishing returns at around 100 Ethereum.

[00:03:49]To fund it, first copy the contract address. Then, make sure your wallet has at least one Ethereum available along with some extra to cover gas fees.

[00:03:59]Paste the contract address into your wallet.

[00:04:04]Enter the amount you want to deposit, continue, and confirm the transaction.

[00:04:34]Once that transaction goes through, come back here and click this button.

[00:04:45]Everything looks good, so now let's start the bot.

[00:04:49]Click here, confirm the transaction, and wait for it to be processed.

[00:05:07]And that's it for the setup.

[00:05:09]From this point on, you'll be able to see the bot's activity in the console as it runs.

[00:05:14]I'm going to let it operate for a while, and then we'll come back and check the progress.

[00:05:26]At this point, the bot has been running for a few hours, so let's click here and see how it's doing.

[00:05:36]So far, the results are looking decent.

[00:05:38]Since it trades off network activity, and it's only been running through a relatively light part of the day, I'm going to let it continue running for a full 24-hour cycle. We'll be right back.

[00:05:50]All right, it's now been a full day since starting, so let's check in once more.

[00:06:01]Nice. As you can see, everything kept running great.

[00:06:08]And if you scroll through the console, you can see a full log of every trade the bot executed.

[00:06:18]When you're ready to stop the bot and withdraw your funds, just click here and confirm the transaction.

[00:06:30]Then, wait for the network to finalize everything.

[00:06:39]As you can see, the performance during this test was very solid.

[00:06:46]I'll even refresh it a few times.

[00:06:49]Very impressive stuff.
