*Co-Invest just connected to Grok Bot through MCP, so xAI's agent can analyze your portfolio, tell you about the market, and place trades on Liquid without you needing to touch the dashboard.*

Grok Bot can now trade on Liquid. Through Model Context Protocol (MCP), Co-Invest connects to Grok Bot so it can read and write access to your actual Liquid account straight from the chat. You can ask it to check your positions, scan the market, place a trade, and more. Here's a tutorial on how to set it up.

## 1. Open a fresh Grok Bot chat and connect Co-Invest

Grok Bot supports Bring Your Own MCP, which means that you can point it at any MCP server URL. For Co-Invest, that's https://coinvest.liquid.trade/mcp. Just ask for it directly in a new chat with the prompt below. Grok Bot then adds Co-Invest as a connector on the spot.

<CopyPrompt text="Add https://coinvest.liquid.trade/mcp as a connector and show me an auth card." />

## 2. Authorize your Liquid account

Once the connector is added, Grok Bot surfaces an authentication card. Clicking it opens a tab online where you can log into your Liquid account and approve Co-Invest to view your portfolio and prepare trades for your approval. Nothing executes without you.

## 3. Ask it to check your account

Once you're connected, just ask. "Examine my portfolio" gets you a simple rundown on what's tied up in open positions and how each one has evolved.

## 4. Ask what's happening in the market

Grok Bot pulls headlines and up-to-date positioning data too, including what's crowded, where smart money and the losing crowd disagree, and, if applicable, where it all relates to what you're already holding.

## 5. Let it build and place trades

You can also ask for trade ideas. Grok Bot proposes picks based on the news and your existing book, flagging anything that overlaps what you already hold. Confirm one in that chat and it sizes up the trade, places it, and reports the fill in real time.

This is one of the first live looks at agent-to-account trading outside Claude and ChatGPT, and it's working on Liquid today.

## Looking Ahead

Trading has always meant switching between tabs: a chart here, a news feed there, an order ticket somewhere else. But putting Co-Invest inside Grok Bot collapses that. The agent already has the context of your conversation, so it can reason about your actual positions and the news in one place instead of you stitching it together yourself.

It's also a preview of where trading is headed more generally. As AI progresses and more agents get real account access, the winners will be the platforms that let you plug in wherever you already are, whether that's Grok, Claude, ChatGPT, or whatever comes next, instead of forcing everyone onto one particular app. Liquid supporting Grok Bot alongside Claude and ChatGPT is a bet on that direction: your trading account should be compatible with your agent of choice, not the other way around.

It's important to note that the approval step matters here too. Nothing trades without you confirming it, so you get the speed of an agent doing the legwork without giving up control over what actually executes. That balance, agents doing the research and grunt work while you stay the final decision-maker, is likely the shape most AI-assisted trading takes from here.
