KONIS vs 3Commas
Both run automated crypto bots on your own exchange account. They differ in how a bot is defined and in which markets it can trade.
Where 3Commas is the better choice
- You trade spot markets. 3Commas lists spot trading on every plan; KONIS live bots are perpetual futures only.
- You want ready-made bot types such as DCA and grid, or manual smart trade orders, instead of writing rules.
- You already have TradingView Pine Script strategies and want to drive bots from them through webhooks.
- You want a mobile app, or a read and write developer API (listed on its top plan).
- You need an exchange KONIS live bots do not support.
