PipYard in Claude and ChatGPT

Build forex and gold strategies in conversation, test them walk-forward on years of your own MT5 history, and read every trade and metric of the results. PipYard's tools run on PipYard's servers inside your own account; the AI works on your own Claude or ChatGPT plan.

PipYard provides software tools only. It doesn't manage money, give investment advice or recommend trades, and results are simulated: past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Trading forex and CFDs carries a high risk of loss.

Connect

You need a PipYard account (the Free plan works). Loading history from MT5 and forward tests also need the PipYard Connector on the Windows PC or VPS where your MT5 runs; uploaded price files work without it.

Claude

  1. In Claude, open Settings → Connectors and add PipYard from the directory (or add a custom connector with https://api.pipyard.com/mcp).
  2. Sign in to PipYard when asked and approve the connection.
  3. Ask, for example: "Show my PipYard strategies and their latest walk-forward results."

ChatGPT

  1. Add PipYard from the ChatGPT app directory (its address is https://api.pipyard.com/mcp/research).
  2. Sign in to PipYard when asked and approve the connection.
  3. In ChatGPT, PipYard has the research tools only: no forward tests and no account balances or trades.

Disconnect any time in PipYard: Settings → AI connections. That ends the AI's access at once.

Your data

When you use PipYard through Claude or ChatGPT, the AI sees what PipYard's tools return to it: your strategies' rules, test results and trades, your saved price data and, in Claude, your linked MT5 accounts' status, balance, equity and trade book. PipYard doesn't receive your conversation; it receives each tool call the AI makes and records which tool was used and when. PipYard never sees your MT5 password, and the AI never gets your PipYard password or keys. What Anthropic or OpenAI do with your conversations is covered by their terms with you. The full picture is in our privacy policy.
