Starting to trade crypto? Do this before you risk money:

🟢Use Stop Loss on every trade. Set it before you enter
🟢Start with spot or very low leverage. Stay under 2x until you know how price moves
🟢Risk small per trade. 1–2% of your account max. One bad trade should not hurt you
🟢Split your capital. Don’t go all-in on one coin or one setup
🟢Plan the trade before you enter. Entry, take profit, stop loss. No plan = no trade
🟢Accept losses early. Cut fast. Don’t hold and hope
🟢Aim for steady gains. Repeat small wins. Avoid chasing big hits

Markets change. Your bots should change with them.

Sideways market:
Grid bots turn range-bound price action into profit. Every move up and down is a trade. Turn on Trailing Up/Down to catch breakouts early, and set a Stop Loss in case the range breaks.

Bull market:
Buy pullbacks with DCA bots, then let Trailing Take Profit ride the trend for you. Backtest your setup first. Keep Stop Loss on. Even bulls correct hard.

Bear market:
Switch to Short DCA or hedge on Futures. Take profits faster. Reversals hit without warning. Keep more in stablecoins so you can react when setups appear.

Any market:
Enable Hedge Mode on your exchange. Run Long and Short at the same time: one side covers the other when the trend flips.

Letting software trade your crypto means trusting it with real money.

Security is not optional.

In this guide, we break down what “safe” trading software actually means and how to evaluate it before you connect your funds.

Crypto prices don't move randomly. Four forces drive most of the action.

1/ Sentiment shifts. Fear and Greed extremes often signal turning points.

2/ Liquidity and capital flows. ETF inflows, institutional money, stablecoin minting. Markets move before the news explains why.

3/ Macro conditions. Interest rates, inflation, central bank decisions.

4/ Derivatives dynamics. High leverage leads to cascading liquidations and those long-wick candles.

The calm play: trade with a plan, risk small, and use automation to take emotions out of the equation.

Most traders jump straight to bot settings. The real edge on Gemini is fees.

A strategy targeting 0.5% gains per trade is useless if 0.4% goes to fees. That's why ActiveTrader mode is non-negotiable.

📖 We put together a guide to automated trading on Gemini: https://bit.ly/4dkmbNQ

$1,000 is enough to start trading with bots. Here's a realistic setup.

Pick DCA bots. They buy in portions as price drops, lowering your average entry. Good starting point for beginners.

Split your capital. $1K across 2-3 bots on different pairs (BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT). Never all in one bot.

Set your risk. 1-2% per trade. Stop-losses on. If a bot loses 5% of its allocation, pause and review.

Test first. Run in demo mode for at least a week before going live.

Track weekly. Pair not moving? Reallocate. Bot underperforming? Adjust or switch.

Small capital forces smarter decisions. That's the advantage.

Crypto prices don't just move on news. Sometimes they move because thousands of traders get liquidated at once.

What is a liquidation?
When a leveraged position loses too much value, the exchange force-closes it. That's a liquidation. Automatic.

Long squeeze
Price drops → longs liquidated → forced selling pushes price lower → more liquidations. A cascade.

Short squeeze
Price rises → shorts liquidated → forced buying pushes price higher → more liquidations. Same cascade, opposite direction.

Those sudden 10-20% moves? Often liquidation cascades, not fundamentals. Watching liquidation data (e.g., Coinglass) helps you spot when a squeeze is building.

How to protect yourself:
→ Avoid high leverage (5x+ is where it gets risky)
→ Always use stop-losses
→ Let bots handle execution during volatility

Understanding liquidations won't prevent every loss. But it helps you stop being surprised.

Most traders don’t fail because of bad ideas. They fail because they trade without a system.

We’ve teamed up with Kraken to launch a new course that shows how to fix that: https://bit.ly/4cuPhbe

🧑‍🎓 Learn how to connect Kraken to 3Commas, build your first bot, test it on real data, and turn it into a rules-based setup that runs 24/7.

Picking a plan should be easy.

We redesigned the subscription page. Now it shows you exactly what each plan includes and recommends one based on your experience level.

Grid bots and DCA bots are the two most popular strategies on 3Commas. They're built for different market conditions.

1️⃣ Grid Bot: sideways markets.

Places buy and sell orders at set intervals within a price range. Market bounces without trending? The bot captures profit on each move.

Works best when BTC or ETH is range-bound. Avoid during strong breakouts or breakdowns.

2️⃣ DCA Bot: trending markets.

Buys in portions as price moves against your entry. When the trend reverses, sells at profit from a lower average price.

Works best when you expect a dip followed by recovery. Avoid in flat, low-volume conditions.

Both fully automated on 3Commas. No manual orders needed.

🤔 Not sure? Start with DCA. More forgiving for beginners.

3Commas Signal Bot runs TradingView webhook signals on spot markets across 7 exchanges.

No one else does this.

Every major exchange has a catch:
• Binance: USDⓈ-M Futures only
• Bybit: derivatives only
• OKX: perpetuals only
• Bitget: USDT-M Futures only
• Coinbase and Kraken: no webhook support

If you want to automate TradingView alerts without touching leverage, 3Commas is the only option.

One bot. Spot markets. 7 exchanges. Zero leverage required.

🪙 BTC: ~$79,000. Back above the range where 400,000+ BTC got accumulated weeks ago.

Earlier this month, the Fear & Greed Index hit 8. That's one of the lowest readings since the index launched in 2018. Panic was loud. Sell orders were louder.

Meanwhile, 400,000+ BTC quietly got scooped up between $60K and $70K.

Today: F&G 33. $1.29B in recent ETF inflows. BTC back above $76K.

The people who sold at F&G 8 paid for someone else's entry.

You don't have to guess when fear peaks. That's what automation is for. A 3Commas DCA bot accumulates on schedule. No emotion, no second-guessing, no trying to time a floor you can't see.

👉 Start DCAing: https://bit.ly/4coOUQF

Did you buy the fear or sell it?

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Your exchange DCA bot opens trades on one trigger: price drops X%.

That's it. No filters. No logic.

3Commas DCA bots use 11 built-in indicators for entry, averaging, and exit. RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, ADX, and 7 more. Combine them with AND logic.

No TradingView subscription needed.

How the exchanges compare:
• Binance DCA: 0 indicators
• Bybit DCA: 0 indicators
• OKX DCA: RSI only (entry)
• Bitget Trend Bot: 4 (entry only)

Best an exchange gives you is 4. None of them apply indicators to averaging or exit.

Configure once. Let it run.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

⚙️ Backtesting in 3Commas has become even more accurate.

Most traders obsess over final PnL. But they often ignore the thing that quietly drains it: exchange fees.

0.1% per trade sounds tiny. Run a DCA bot that opens 50 deals a month on a 10-order ladder, and you're paying fees on hundreds of fills. Over a year, that’s a serious cut of your returns.

Backtests that ignore fees show results that are better than reality.

We just closed that gap.

You can now set exchange fees in your backtests:
• Default fee rate saved in your user settings
• Original exchange data attached to each backtest
• Override before a run for VIP tiers, maker-taker splits, and promo discounts

👉 Set your fee rate and re-run: https://bit.ly/48qP5Zh

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Most trading ideas fail before they ever reach the market. Just because they were never tested properly.

We published an article on AI trading and backtesting in 2026. What it covers:
🟢What "AI trading" actually means
🟢Why backtesting is the filter most strategies fail
🟢How the 3Commas AI Assistant helps you build and iterate on strategies
🟢Why you can’t backtest external logic of Signal bots
🟢How QuantPilot approaches strategy building differently: generating actual strategy code you can simulate and backtest

The bottom line: if you can't test it properly, you shouldn't trade it.
