Scorecard

  • Cost

    weight 30%

    All-in monthly outlay — software, platform, data and any required hosting. This is the hurdle a strategy clears before the trader sees a dollar, so it carries the most weight.

    30/30
  • Automation

    weight 25%

    Whether the product places trades, assists a human, or only signals. A tool that needs you at the desk is not automation regardless of what it costs.

    22.5/25
  • Coverage

    weight 20%

    Instruments and markets genuinely supported, including whether smaller contract sizes are available to smaller accounts.

    12.4/20
  • Resilience

    weight 15%

    Monitoring, automatic recovery from disconnects and platform restarts, and the support attached. Unattended systems fail operationally far more often than they fail strategically.

    9.8/15
  • Transparency

    weight 10%

    Whether the logic is describable. A buyer who cannot say what a system does has no basis for deciding whether a losing month is variance or breakage.

Assessment

Built for traders who want to design their own bot behaviour rather than run something supplied: DCA safety orders, technical-analysis conditions, and refinement over time. Cloud execution means it keeps running without a machine of your own, which is a structural advantage over the locally-executed futures products here. Crypto only, and the edge remains yours to find.

Suits

Crypto traders who want configurable DCA and grid automation with hands-on control across exchanges.

Limits

Crypto only. Pricing on this board is unverified pending a check against the vendor's page.

Alternatives to 3Commas

Scored on the same five components. Products in the same asset class come first — a crypto bot is not an alternative to a futures system, whatever it scores.
