Agentic trading platforms outside the United States
Most comparisons of AI agent trading rank five US brokers, four of which will not open an account for you. This page is the other way round: what someone in the UK, the EU or Switzerland can actually connect an assistant to, what each one lets the agent do without asking, and which US products are closed. Fensory publishes this page, appears in it, and is itself unavailable to US persons.
Published 2026-09-16, last edited 2026-10-18. Every competitor claim was read against its own source on 2026-10-18. The page is re-checked when a source changes and at least quarterly. Fensory appears in this comparison and sells a trading account.
The comparison
| Server | Who holds the funds | Credential on your machine | Places the order | What stops a bad order | Where you can open it | Maintained |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Interactive Brokers AI Integration | Interactive Brokers | None. You sign in on IBKR’s own screen and authorise one account | Drafts only. An instruction never becomes an order on its own | Structural: the agent cannot place an order at all | UK, Europe, US, Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia. Not available in India or Japan | Active. Certified connectors for ChatGPT, Claude and Grok, plus any MCP client |
| Scalable Capital Agentic Investing | Scalable Capital | None. Sign-in on Scalable’s screen with two-factor authentication, reconnected periodically | Prepares an order. You confirm each one | Confirmation on every order, and agentic access can be switched off at any time. Payments are never handled by agents | Not documented for the agent product. Scalable operates in Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, France and the Netherlands, and has no UK entity | Active. Works with ChatGPT, Codex, Claude and Grok |
| eToro Agent Portfolios | eToro | A scoped API key you mint, tied to that one portfolio, with an expiry and an IP allow-list | Executes. No per-order confirmation is documented | The portfolio’s fixed balance is the ceiling. Deleting the agent portfolio revokes its tokens. No per-order cap | Not documented for the agent product. eToro says only that availability varies by jurisdiction and that rollout is gradual | Active, in beta |
| cTrader AI Agent Connect | Your cTrader broker | A configuration token copied from cTrader’s settings | Executes | Not documented | Depends entirely on your broker, and cTrader brokers are widely available in Europe | Active. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI |
| Binance Agent OS | Binance, in an isolated Agentic sub-account | None locally. Scope-based authorisation through the MCP server | Executes, with per-order approval optional | Scoped permissions and the sub-account balance. Binance told TechCrunch on launch day that it does not cap how much an agent can trade or lose | Not documented for the product, and subject to regional availability. Binance does not serve US customers | Active, hosted |
| Kraken CLI | Kraken | API key and secret, in environment variables or a local config file | Executes once the trade service is enabled | Service-group gating, a dangerous-operation acknowledgement the tool enforces itself, and limits set at the API-key level | Not stated in the MCP documentation. Kraken notes xStocks are not available in the USA | Active, MIT licensed |
| MetaMask Agent Wallet | You. Self-custodial | None exposed to the agent. You hold the recovery phrase | Executes inside the policy you set | Protocol allow-list, daily spend limits, two-factor approval outside policy with a five-minute auto-decline | Not stated | Active. Its own product page still describes an Early Access Program |
| Trading 212 | Trading 212 | A raw API key and secret in environment variables | The community tools can place and manage orders | None | Not applicable. There is no official agent product | Community projects, unsupported by the broker |
| Bitpanda Fusion MCP | Bitpanda, in your Fusion account. Not documented further on the page | A scoped, revocable Bitpanda API key. "Your credentials never leave Bitpanda" | Executes | The key itself is the allow-list: scope it read-only, trade-only, or custom. Rate limits apply per tool category and order placement is held to stricter limits than reads. No cap on the size of a single order, and the page puts the responsibility on you: "you are solely responsible for reviewing and authorizing every instruction" | European, and the only entry here regulated as such. MiCAR-licensed with 10 or more EU licences, operated by Bitpanda GmbH in Austria, with German clients served by Bitpanda Asset Management GmbH. US availability is not addressed | Active, hosted |
| Senpi | You. "Senpi does not take custody of funds", and delegated access cannot withdraw or transfer to an external address | A Senpi auth token in an environment variable. No private key in a file | Executes. Co-pilot mode asks first, autonomous mode does not | Daily-loss halt, intraday drawdown breaker, per-position max_loss_pct with trailing exits, margin, notional and leverage limits that reject a breaching signal, and per-asset cooldowns | Open in and outside the US. Only sanctioned jurisdictions are excluded | Active. Last push 22 September 2026, 125 stars, 37 forks, MIT |
| Bitget GetClaw | Bitget, in a dedicated GetClaw sub-account | No API credential in the user setup. The user signs in to Bitget and launches GetClaw through Telegram | Executes immediately or through scheduled trigger tasks | The dedicated sub-account balance and supported trading types contain the product. Bitget documents manually funded capital and product boundaries, but no per-order cap | Not documented for GetClaw. General Bitget account eligibility still applies | Active, hosted and operated through Telegram |
| FensoryOurs | You. Tokens settle to a wallet you control, perp margin sits at the venue | None. OAuth through a Fensory account | Executes | a kill-switch, an access expiry, a market allow-list and a per-order cap, all enforced on the account. An order above the cap is rejected rather than trimmed | Not available to US persons. Fensory AG is Swiss | Active, hosted |
What differs is who presses the button
Three designs exist. The agent drafts an instruction and you turn it into an order yourself, which is what Interactive Brokers does: the instruction waits in a tab and, in IBKR’s words, never becomes an order automatically. The agent prepares an order and you confirm that specific order, which is Scalable Capital, with the cost disclosure shown before each confirmation. Or the agent places orders on its own inside whatever you funded, which is eToro, Binance and Fensory.
None of the three is safer in the abstract. What matters is whether the boundary is enforced where the order is checked. A ring-fenced sub-account is a real boundary and every product here has one in some form. A per-order cap is rarer: on this page, Fensory documents one and the others bound you by what you fund and, at eToro, by a fixed virtual balance.
The other thing a European reader needs is stated nowhere else: eligibility. IBKR documents its regions and excludes India and Japan. Scalable is an EU broker with no UK entity. eToro says only that availability varies by jurisdiction, so you cannot tell from the documentation whether the agent feature is open to you. Everything else on this page is academic until you know which of these will take you as a customer.
What you can open
Interactive Brokers AI Integration
Official projectIBKR opened its MCP connector to any compatible tool on 28 July 2026. The assistant reads your account and drafts instructions, which sit in an AI Instructions tab until you convert one into a live order yourself. Connecting is free and works with a paper account.
- What it reaches
- Reads the whole account. Drafts single-leg market and limit orders on equities and ETFs
- Cost
- Free
Choose this if: You want the research and the reasoning without ever handing over the trigger, and you want the broadest country coverage on this page. For a UK reader especially, this is the one with documented eligibility.
Worth knowing: It drafts and nothing more, so a scheduled agent that rebalances while you sleep is out of scope. Drafting is currently limited to single-leg equity and ETF orders.
Scalable Capital Agentic Investing
Official projectAnnounced 25 August 2026, the first European bank to open its platform to AI assistants. You activate it in your profile, connect a remote MCP endpoint, and the assistant prepares orders. Every buy or sell needs your explicit confirmation in a separate step, with the cost information shown first.
- What it reaches
- Stocks, ETFs, derivatives, crypto products, savings plans, watchlists and price alerts
- Cost
- Market data free within the feature. You bring your own assistant
Choose this if: You are in one of Scalable’s six countries and want an ordinary European broker account, in euros, where the confirmation step is real and the disclosure is shown before you press yes.
Worth knowing: No per-order cap or allow-list is documented, so confirmation is the control. A UK resident cannot use it, and the country list for the agent feature specifically is not published.
eToro Agent Portfolios
Official projectAnnounced 26 March 2026 and still in beta, this is the oldest product on the page. You fund a ring-fenced portfolio from $200, mint an API key scoped to it, and your agent opens and closes positions there. Supported clients are developer tools: OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude Code and Cursor.
- What it reaches
- Not enumerated. Examples given are equities, sectors, crypto and defensive positions
- Cost
- Not disclosed for the feature. $200 minimum to start
Choose this if: You are building your own agent instead of chatting to one, you want a hard ring-fence around what it can touch, and you are comfortable holding an API key.
Worth knowing: ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude.ai are explicitly not supported, so the mainstream assistants cannot connect. Nothing asks you before an order, so the funded balance is the whole limit.
cTrader AI Agent Connect
Official projectSpotware shipped official MCP servers for cTrader on 14 May 2026, one remote and one local, plus a skills library. Agents can execute trades, analyse accounts and drive charts. You reach it through whichever broker gives you cTrader, so the account terms are that broker’s.
- What it reaches
- Forex and CFDs, depending on the broker
- Cost
- Not documented
Choose this if: You already trade forex or CFDs on cTrader and want the assistant inside the platform you use, rather than moving your money somewhere new.
Worth knowing: No per-order cap, allow-list or kill-switch is documented. CFDs are leveraged products where most retail accounts lose money, and the agent does not change that.
Binance Agent OS
Official projectLaunched 20 August 2026. Access is authorised through a dedicated Agentic sub-account isolated from your main account, with scopes granted per capability, and without you managing API keys locally. Binance states that its MCP server provides no withdrawal scope at all.
- What it reaches
- Spot, margin, futures, on-chain swaps
- Cost
- Not documented
Choose this if: You are trading crypto on Binance already and want the deepest venue on this page, with withdrawals structurally out of the agent’s reach.
Worth knowing: Crypto only, and the sub-account balance is the entire limit on losses. Check whether Binance serves retail customers where you live before planning around it.
Kraken CLI
Official projectAn open-source command-line tool with a built-in MCP server, reaching Kraken spot, futures and the xStocks tokenized equities. The default service set is read-only for live funds, and a local paper-trading engine runs with no credentials at all.
- What it reaches
- Spot, futures, xStocks tokenized equities, forex, staking
- Cost
- Free and open source
Choose this if: You want tokenized US equities and crypto on one venue, a real paper mode that needs no credentials, and a tool you can read before you run it.
Worth knowing: Enabling the funding service lets the agent initiate withdrawals, gated only by an acknowledgement flag. Scope the API key to exclude withdrawal, or leave that service off.
MetaMask Agent Wallet
Official projectThe only self-custodial option here. You hold the recovery phrase, the agent never sees the key, and it operates inside wallet policy: Guard Mode allows listed protocols with daily spend limits and two-factor approval for anything outside policy, which auto-declines after five minutes.
- What it reaches
- Swaps, perpetual futures, prediction markets, staking, across Hyperliquid, EVM chains and Solana
- Cost
- Not stated
Choose this if: You want on-chain trading with nobody else holding your assets, and you want an allow-list and a daily limit rather than a single funded balance as your boundary.
Worth knowing: Self-custody means a mistake is yours to absorb. MetaMask’s own pages disagree on whether this is generally available or still early access.
Trading 212
Community projectIncluded because people search for it. Trading 212 has no official agent product. What exists is community tooling on its public API, including a repository whose organisation name suggests otherwise and which describes itself as experimental.
- What it reaches
- Invest accounts and Stocks ISA
- Cost
- Free tooling
Choose this if: Nothing, for most readers. It is here so you can see what we found instead of assuming a silent gap.
Worth knowing: The tooling itself notes that Trading 212’s terms prohibit algorithmic trading under MiFID II, and its maintainers disclaim responsibility for your keys or your account. That combination is a reason to wait for an official product.
Bitpanda Fusion MCP
Official projectBitpanda’s own MCP server for Fusion, its professional trading product. In its words, "your AI can place and cancel orders, check live prices, review your portfolio, and manage your account: simply by being asked." Over 2,000 trading pairs, with liquidity aggregated from 12 or more venues.
- What it reaches
- Over 2,000 trading pairs across crypto and Bitpanda’s tokenised markets
- Cost
- The MCP server is free with no subscription or usage cost. Standard Fusion trading fees apply to anything it executes
Choose this if: You are in the EU and you want the regulated option. Nothing else on this page is MiCAR-licensed, and a revocable key you can scope to read-only is a better default than a key that can do everything the account can. If regulatory standing is the thing that decides it for you, this is the entry to read first.
Worth knowing: The page does not say who holds the funds or how the account is structured, only that credentials stay with Bitpanda. A scoped key is an allow-list, not a spending limit: inside the trade scope there is nothing documented that stops one large order.
Senpi
Official projectPersonal trading agents for Hyperliquid perpetual futures, launched 24 February 2026, with an MCP surface of 62 tools, up from the 31 its launch coverage reported. Each strategy runs against its own funded wallet rather than a shared balance, and the skills repository is open source under MIT.
- What it reaches
- Hyperliquid perpetual futures only. ~230 crypto and ~95 equities, metals, indices and pre-IPO
- Cost
- 0.05% on perpetual futures auto-trades, no recurring platform fee, plus Hyperliquid fees and a $1 activation per strategy wallet
Choose this if: You want loss limits rather than order limits. Senpi documents a daily-loss halt and a drawdown breaker, which stop a losing run; a per-order cap, ours included, does not. It is the closest product on this page to what we do, and unlike us it is open to readers in the US.
Worth knowing: Perpetual futures only, so there is no tokenized equity to hold and no spot. It does not replace a brokerage, and its custody wording is close enough to ours that the real difference is the instrument set and the shape of the limits.
Bitget GetClaw
Official projectBitget runs GetClaw as a zero-install trading agent in Telegram. A user creates and funds a dedicated agent sub-account, then can request immediate orders or persistent trigger-based tasks. The April 2026 trading guide confirms that the product can place orders, open positions and close positions.
- What it reaches
- Crypto spot and USDT-margined futures
- Cost
- No current recurring price is stated in the trading launch guide
Choose this if: You already use Bitget, want a hosted crypto agent that can keep monitoring after one chat ends and prefer a dedicated exchange sub-account over connecting a general assistant.
Worth knowing: Custody stays with Bitget, the product is crypto-only and the published controls do not include a per-order cap. Positions and orders in the GetClaw sub-account are queried in GetClaw rather than shown in the ordinary Bitget app or website.
Fensory
OursOfficial projectOur own, and available only outside the United States. A hosted MCP server reaches Hyperliquid spot and perpetual futures, including supported builder-dex markets. The app separately surfaces tokenized US stocks and treasuries and gold. Fensory sets a kill-switch, an access expiry, a market allow-list and a per-order cap on the account.
- What it reaches
- MCP: Hyperliquid spot and perpetual futures. App: tokenized US equities and treasuries, and gold
- Cost
- Free to connect. 0.01% to 0.05% on perpetual futures and Hyperliquid spot, nothing on tokenized equities, yields or bridging
Choose this if: You want US equity exposure without a US brokerage account, on the same account as crypto and perpetual futures, and you want the backend to refuse an order that breaks your cap or your allow-list before it reaches a venue.
Worth knowing: Tokenized equities are not shares: you hold a token an issuer mints against shares it holds, and perpetual futures convey no ownership at all. The cap is per order and not a limit on total losses, so orders inside your limits can still lose money.
What is closed to you, and what nobody will tell you
The platforms most agentic trading comparisons rank. Most cannot open an account for you at all, and the rest do not say.
| Product | Open to you | What the vendor says |
|---|---|---|
| Minara | Not documented | Minara now has two public surfaces. The older consumer FAQ describes a built-in custodial wallet. The newer open-source Minara Agent documentation says wallet keys stay with the user and perpetual strategies run through venue-bound sub-wallets. Neither publishes a complete country list, so capability is verified while eligibility remains unclear. Minara Agent documentation |
| Agent Arcade | Not documented | A live Hyperliquid platform with supplied agents, a leaderboard and copy or counter execution across crypto and stock-named, index, metal and energy perpetual futures. Its public page documents the product and fee but no country or restricted-jurisdiction list. Agent Arcade |
| Robinhood Agentic Trading | No | United States only, and crypto trading through an agent is further restricted by state, including New York. There is no UK or EU equivalent. Robinhood support |
| Public.com | No | The MCP endpoint is limited to US securities markets, and an account needs a US social security number and a US address. Public |
| SoFi | No, and no product | SoFi Invest requires US residency, and there is no third-party agent or MCP product to connect to in the first place. SoFi support |
| Webull Agentic Trading | US, plus Japan separately | The consumer agentic product launched to US clients. Webull’s Japanese entity published its own MCP server, and Webull’s self-hosted open-source server documents nine regions including the UK, which is a developer path rather than the consumer product. Webull |
| Moomoo API Skills | Australia and New Zealand | Launched there in April 2026, not in Europe, and the agent drafts only: every instruction needs manual password-protected authorisation before it executes. Moomoo announcement |
| TradeStation MCP | Not documented | No geographic statement either way, alongside a $10,000 minimum balance and a paid Claude or ChatGPT subscription. TradeStation does serve non-US clients through a separate entity, but nothing documents MCP access for them. TradeStation |
| Alpaca MCP Server | Not documented | The server is open source and anyone can run it, but Alpaca documents no geography for it, and non-US residents are directed to contact support about an account. Alpaca docs |
| Coinbase for Agents | Not documented | Coinbase has published no country list for the agent product. Its equities and derivatives features are described for US customers, and everything else is left to general account eligibility. Coinbase docs |
Announced, and not verified by us
Each of these is reported to let an agent trade and we have not read the vendor page end to end. They are named so you can chase them, not recommended, and not ranked in the table above. Where a product is read-only we say so, because that is the distinction this list exists to make.
- Revolut X MCPReported on 10 July 2026. Prepares orders for explicit approval rather than executing them outright, which would make it the only mainstream UK and EU fintech in this shape. Worth chasing before anything else on this list.
- Longbridge MCPReported with 160 or more tools including order placement, Asia-focused. Vendor page not read by us.
- Capital.com MCPReported with a two-step confirmation, MENA-focused. Vendor page not read by us.
- Gemini Agentic TradingReported from late April 2026. Not read on the vendor page, and its availability outside the US is the open question.
- ThinkMarkets ChelseaAIExecutes. Reported in June 2026 as letting an agent place and modify CFD trades without reaching funds. Vendor page still not read by us.
- MetaTrader 5Executes. Reported to have native agent and MCP support in terminal builds through July 2026, reaching users through any MT5 broker. No MetaQuotes page found.
- Freedom24 TradernetRead-only on what we have seen. Reported around August 2026 to have opened its brokerage to developer AI clients, with no evidence of agent order placement.
- IG Australia and Monex JapanRead-only, and both outside Europe. Neither lets an agent trade.
How we checked
The question this page answers is narrow: can a reader outside the United States actually open this, and what does the agent get to do. Products are included when a vendor has shipped something an AI assistant connects to, whether or not the vendor is European.
Every cell was read on the vendor documentation. The original sweep ran on 16 September 2026, and Bitget GetClaw was moved from the unverified list after its official launch and trading guides became readable on 18 October 2026. Where a vendor page refused to load, the product went into the unverified list instead of the table. Where a vendor has published no country statement, the geography cell says so rather than inferring eligibility from where the broker operates, because the two are not the same thing and inferring one from the other is how a reader ends up at a failed sign-up.
We checked the exclusions directly instead of repeating them. The US-only verdicts come from each vendor’s own support pages and account eligibility rules.
This list is not complete either, and the gap it had was the worst kind for this page. A sweep on 22 September found Bitpanda Fusion, which is MiCAR-licensed and EU-native, missing from a comparison about trading outside the United States. It is in the table now. Others reported to trade are named under “Announced, and not verified by us” below rather than left out, and the entries that were previously unverified are now split by whether they execute or only read.
Fensory publishes this page and appears in it, and has an obvious interest in a reader who cannot use the US products. That is why the comparison is on documented custody, approval and limits, and why the two products we would send a UK reader to first are not ours.
Questions people ask
- Can I use Robinhood’s AI agent trading in the UK or Europe?
- No. Robinhood’s Agentic Trading is available to US customers only, and its crypto support is further restricted by US state. There is no UK or EU version. The closest equivalents a European can open are Interactive Brokers, which drafts orders for you to submit, and Scalable Capital in six EU countries.
- What can a European use to let ChatGPT or Claude trade?
- Interactive Brokers connects to ChatGPT, Claude and Grok and drafts instructions you convert into orders yourself. Scalable Capital connects the same assistants and asks you to confirm each order. Fensory connects any MCP client and executes inside limits you set. eToro excludes the mainstream chat assistants entirely.
- Which platforms let an agent trade without asking me each time?
- eToro, Binance, Bitget GetClaw, Kraken, cTrader, MetaMask and Fensory place orders without a per-order confirmation, inside whatever boundary you set: a funded sub-account, an allow-list, a daily limit or a cap. Interactive Brokers and Scalable Capital will not. One drafts instructions you submit yourself, and the other requires your explicit confirmation on every order.
- Can an AI agent withdraw money from these accounts?
- Mostly no, and the mechanism differs. Binance grants no withdrawal scope at all, Scalable never lets agents handle payments, and Fensory’s key cannot sign a withdrawal. Kraken is the exception: enabling its funding service lets an agent initiate withdrawals unless you scope the API key to prevent it.
- Is agentic trading legal in the UK and the EU?
- Using an assistant with a broker that offers it is a normal account feature, and IBKR, Scalable and eToro all operate under European regulation. Terms differ though: Trading 212’s own community tooling notes that its terms prohibit algorithmic trading under MiFID II, so read what your broker allows before automating anything.
