Build a Day Trading Bot AI Agent with Claude (Step-by-Step)

Added: 2026-05-25

[00:00:00]Welcome back, guys. Today, I'm super excited to share an automated cryptocurrency trading tool that I developed using artificial intelligence.

[00:00:09]To be totally honest, this setup has become one of my most reliable, fully automated income streams, consistently bringing in passive profits. Over the years, I've tested countless online side hustles, but the profit margins this specific bot produces are on a completely different level. The best part is that AI handled all the complex coding. You don't need to be a developer or waste your day analyzing training charts to make this work. All the difficult technical aspects have already been sorted out. In this tutorial, I'll explain the mechanics behind it, guide you through the entire setup process step by step, and show you the actual profits from a live test run.

[00:00:53]Fundamentally, this smart contract monitors multiple decentralized exchanges for price differences. It constantly scans liquidity pools and instantly executes a trade whenever it spots a profitable arbitrage opportunity.

[00:01:10]Now, to begin, you'll need to install a web 3 wallet as a browser extension.

[00:01:16]Just about any wallet that supports the Ethereum network will work fine. And if you're viewing this on a mobile device, that's not a problem. You can complete these steps using the built-in D app browser found in most crypto wallet apps. Now, let's navigate to the online development platform where we will compile and launch the contract. All the necessary links are provided down in the description for your convenience. When the environment fully loads, open a new workspace file and title it whatever you want. I've also included a link in the description to the complete open- source code we need for this project. This allows you to simply copy the entire text and paste it directly into your file. Take that code and paste it inside the blank document you just created.

[00:02:06]I've included ample comments throughout the script, so it's very easy to follow the logic and understand the purpose of each function. From here, click over to this tab on the sidebar. Check the very first line of the code to locate the necessary solidity version. Ensure that the compiler version selected on the left perfectly matches that number. If it doesn't align, just pick the right one from the drop- down menu. After verifying the version, go ahead and click on this compile button.

[00:02:41]At this point, we are all set to launch the bot using your own wallet. Switch over to the deploy tab. Excuse me. Let me do that myself. Hold up. There we go.

[00:02:53]Select the provider option from this list. Choose your web 3 wallet. Connect it and authorize the link.

[00:03:07]Your wallet address and your current Ethereum balance should now be visible on the screen, confirming a successful connection. Now, uh, next, click the deploy button to proceed. A window will pop up asking you to approve a small gas fee, usually just a few cents. Confirm it. Wait a few moments, and look for a green success notification in the bottom console.

[00:03:37]Ah, excellent. Because your smart contract is now live on the network, its user interface will appear just below.

[00:03:44]The layout is extremely straightforward and userfriendly. Before taking the next step, click here to verify that the deployment details are accurate. Check your wallet and confirm that the listed owner address is exactly the same as your personal wallet address. They need to match completely. This is a simple security check to ensure you have full control over the contract. The following step involves funding the bot, giving it the required working capital to execute arbitrage opportunities. I recommend starting out with anywhere from 1 to 10 Ethereum. For the sake of this tutorial, I'm going to load it with one Ethereum.

[00:04:22]To transfer your initial funds, copy the dedicated address of the smart contract you just launched. Open your web 3 wallet and navigate to the send feature.

[00:04:32]Let's do that. There we go. Paste the contract address into the destination field. Enter the amount of Ethereum you wish to provide. Click next and confirm the transaction.

[00:05:04]After the network confirms the block, click this button to verify that the funds are showing up properly.

[00:05:17]It looks perfect. Now click start.

[00:05:20]Approve the transaction in your wallet prompt and wait a short time for it to process on chain.

[00:05:36]That concludes the setup process. The bot is now officially online. You can watch it identify and complete trades directly in these logs. I'm going to leave it running on autopilot for a bit and we'll circle back later to review its performance.

[00:05:52]Okay, a few hours have passed. Let's check on our progress by hitting this button.

[00:06:01]The initial profits look quite promising. Market value is a bit low at the moment. And because this bot thrives on network volatility, I'll leave it active for a complete 24 hours to gather better performance data. I'll be right back.

[00:06:16]Welcome back everyone. Exactly 24 hours have passed since we launched the system. Let's take a comprehensive look.

[00:06:23]I'm going to click this button once again right here. Let's see it.

[00:06:30]Okay.

[00:06:37]Fantastic. As you can tell, the entire process operated flawlessly. You can scroll through the console to review the trade log, seeing every profitable arbitrage if found and finalized. When you're prepared to hold the bot and pull out your starting capital along with your earnings, just hit this withdraw button. Approve the signature in your wallet and wait for confirmation.

[00:07:07]Instantly, the total balance has been safely deposited back into my main wallet. The profits accumulated over these 24 hours were outstanding. A really impressive result.
