β¨ This week's picks (in the Backtests window):

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, thatβs 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:
β’ Default fee rate saved in your user settings
β’ Original exchange data attached to each backtest
β’ Override before a run for VIP tiers, maker-taker splits, and promo discounts
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

TradingView is where you see signals. 3Commas is where they get traded.
Alerts on a chart are just notifications. They don't move size. To turn a TradingView alert into an actual position, you need a webhook handoff.
Here's the flow in 3Commas:
1. Set up a Signal Bot in 3Commas. You get a unique webhook URL and a message template.
2. In TradingView, create your alert with that webhook as the destination.
3. Paste the template body 3Commas gives you. It tells the bot exactly what to do.
4. The alert fires. Your bot receives the signal and opens the trade on your exchange.
Why it matters:
β’ Signal Bot runs on spot and futures across 7+ exchanges. No exchange offers webhook execution on spot.
β’ Built-in averaging, up to 8 take-profit targets, trailing TP and SL, breakeven. Plain TradingView webhooks don't give you that.
β’ Strategies stay in TradingView with full indicator power. Execution stays automated.
π Full setup guide: https://bit.ly/4tFFvdz

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:
π’ What "AI trading" actually means
π’ Why backtesting is the filter most strategies fail
π’ How the 3Commas AI Assistant helps you build and iterate on strategies
π’ Why you canβt backtest external logic of Signal bots
π’ 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.

Your Grid Bot just hit the top of its range.
Price kept going. Your bot stopped trading.
That's the moment most Grid bots fail you.
Grid Bot Expansion in 3Commas fixes it.
When price breaks out of your grid range, the bot doesn't sit idle. It extends automatically. New grid levels added above (Expansion Up) or below (Expansion Down) so your strategy keeps running.
You decide how far it can stretch.
Stop Expansion sets a hard cap. The bot expands until it hits your limit, then locks in. No surprises, no runaway grids.
Pair it with:
β’ 5 ready-made Grid strategy presets
β’ 120-day custom backtests with your exact parameters
β’ AI Optimize for setting smart ranges from the start
Strategy-led Grid trading. With a real plan for what happens when the market doesn't behave.

Running the same DCA logic across 50 altcoins isn't about saving setup time. It's how you extract returns from a market where you can't predict which coin moves next.
A wide basket does the work for you:
β’ Capital spread across many markets. One bad coin barely dents the portfolio.
β’ Setups fire constantly. Coins don't move in sync, so something is always near entry.
β’ Less dependency on timing any single pair. Winners and losers smooth the equity curve.
The problem: most platforms make this impossible.
β’ Binance, OKX, Bitget: 50 separate bots
β’ Bybit DCA: 5 coins max per bot
50 bots, 50 dashboards, 50 chances to break your risk rules.
3Commas: one DCA bot, 100+ pairs at once. Same entries, averaging, TP, SL. Change one parameter, the whole basket updates.

Your TradingView alert fires. Your Signal Bot doesn't.
9 times out of 10, it's the JSON:
1. Wrong action. Use the exact 3Commas keywords: enter_long, enter_short, exit_long, exit_short. Not "buy", not "sell". Anything else gets rejected.
2. Hardcoded values inside {{ }}. Double braces are for TradingView placeholders that fill in dynamically. To hardcode "BINANCE", write "tv_exchange": "BINANCE". Not "{{BINANCE}}".
3. Pair format. Signal Bot wants the instrument written precisely:
- Spot: BTCUSDT
- USDT-perp: BTCUSDT.P
- Inverse perp: BTCUSD.P
Building from a TradingView watchlist? Use "tv_instrument": "{{ticker}}" and let the placeholder fill itself.
One last thing: your secret and bot_uuid are credentials. Never share the full JSON publicly. If it leaks, delete the bot and start fresh.
