XBTFX Unveils New Infrastructure to Connect Trading Accounts with Software Agents
St. John’s, Antigua and Barbuda – July 1st, 2026 – XBTFX has announced the launch of its MCP Server and Skills Hub, significantly expanding its developer ecosystem following the earlier introduction of its REST and WebSocket Trading API. This new infrastructure allows compatible software agents, coding assistants, and automation frameworks to connect with eligible live XBTFX trading accounts through structured, authenticated workflows. Supported applications can now retrieve account information, access market data, and submit structured trading requests.
The move addresses a growing trend where intelligent software agents and automation tools are increasingly employed for market analysis, news processing, code generation, and research support. However, these tools have largely operated independently of live trading accounts, limiting their ability to access real-time account data, inspect open positions, monitor margin, or submit account-specific requests without complex, custom integrations.
XBTFX’s new infrastructure is designed to bridge this gap. The company emphasizes that it is not introducing a proprietary decision engine, automated strategy, or a “black-box” execution system. Instead, users retain full control over their logic, instructions, permissions, and risk management, while XBTFX provides the authenticated account access, market data connectivity, and execution infrastructure.
Infrastructure, Not a Trading Strategy
The newly launched stack is built to make trading accounts programmable via structured, authenticated workflows. When a user interacts with a compatible client or software agent to check exposure, retrieve market prices, calculate position sizes, or prepare a trade with specific parameters, the client translates these instructions into structured tool calls or API requests. The natural-language instruction itself is not directly transmitted to the trading account.
XBTFX then authenticates and processes the corresponding account, market-data, or trading request. Crucially, users remain responsible for their strategy logic, configurations, credentials, and risk management. This distinction is particularly relevant for cryptocurrency and active CFD traders, where automation and continuous monitoring can be beneficial, but user-defined risk controls remain paramount.
Three Connection Pathways
The MCP Server functions as a structured tool layer between compatible clients and the XBTFX Trading API. Supported clients can access balances, margin, positions, orders, historical data, instrument details, and pricing. Depending on granted permissions, they can also submit structured trading requests, such as opening or closing positions and modifying stop-loss or take-profit levels.
The Skills Hub offers reusable instructions, endpoint definitions, implementation examples, and developer guidance for software agents and applications that do not connect directly through MCP. This includes workflows utilizing popular frameworks like LangChain, CrewAI, OpenClaw, and Claude Code, as well as custom agent implementations.
The Trading API provides REST and WebSocket access for developers building dashboards, automated strategies, signal-to-execution systems, reporting tools, and account management applications.
Collectively, these three access paths offer traders and developers diverse methods to connect automated workflows and software agents with eligible XBTFX accounts, tailored to their specific technical setups and use cases.
Tailored for Crypto, Forex, and Continuous Market Monitoring
The integration layer supports workflows across forex, cryptocurrency CFDs, metals, indices, energies, and stocks, offering access to over 400 instruments. The availability of specific instruments and trading conditions is contingent on the account linked to the API key.
XBTFX also supports trading accounts denominated in BTC, ETH, and USDT, alongside major fiat currencies. This provides traders and developers with a crypto-denominated environment for automated monitoring, account management, and structured trading workflows.
For crypto-focused traders, the 24/7 nature of digital asset markets is a key consideration. When a software agent or automated process is configured for continuous operation, it can monitor market data, account conditions, margin, and exposure outside conventional trading hours, responding according to predefined instructions, validation rules, and risk controls.
XBTFX explicitly states that it does not provide trading recommendations through the MCP Server or Skills Hub, nor does the integration dictate when a user should buy or sell any instrument.
Developed in Partnership with HuracanAI
The MCP Server, Skills Hub, Trading API, and the underlying execution architecture were jointly developed by XBTFX and HuracanAI, a financial technology firm specializing in brokerage infrastructure, liquidity connectivity, trading bridges, APIs, and software-agent systems. This collaboration merges brokerage execution infrastructure with agent connectivity, fostering a more programmable model for traders and developers operating within live account environments.
Account Holder Retains Control
Each XBTFX API key is tied to an individual, eligible trading account. Users can manage their API keys through the XBTFX Console and revoke them if they are no longer needed or if there is a concern about exposure.
Given that the integration operates with live trading accounts, XBTFX advises users to initially test account information and market data functions with limited exposure. They also recommend reviewing agent behavior before enabling broader automated workflows.
“Modern software agents and automation tools have become increasingly capable of supporting research and operational workflows, but they have generally remained separate from the trading account itself,” said Peter Speros, an executive at XBTFX. “Our infrastructure is designed to provide structured, authenticated access to account information, market data, and account functions while keeping control with the account holder.”
Getting Started
To connect a compatible software agent or supported application, users can open or select an eligible live XBTFX trading account, generate an account-bound API key via the XBTFX Console, and connect through the MCP Server, Skills Hub, or Trading API.
The MCP Server, Skills Hub, and Trading API are available without a separate API subscription or per-request fee. Standard spreads, commissions, financing charges, and other trading costs remain applicable. Comprehensive documentation is accessible through the XBTFX Developer Hub and Developer Documentation.

Risk Warning
Trading leveraged products, including CFDs, carries substantial risk and may not be suitable for all investors. AI agents and automated applications may misinterpret instructions, use incorrect parameters, encounter software or connectivity failures, or behave unexpectedly. Connecting an AI agent to a trading account does not mitigate market risk, guarantee execution quality, or improve trading performance. This information does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
