Using AI Tools with 3Commas

Updated today

AI is becoming a common tool for traders. While 3Commas does not provide trading advice or AI signals, you can combine external AI tools with 3Commas bots and SmartTrades to make your workflow easier and faster.

Recommended AI Tools

Here are some popular AI tools you can use (many have free tiers):

  • ChatGPT (OpenAI)

  • Claude (Anthropic)

  • Gemini (Google)

  • Perplexity AI

  • Grok

  • Copilot


1. Idea Generation

AI can be used to brainstorm, explain, or summarize trading concepts.

  • Generate strategy ideas (momentum, mean reversion, breakout trading).

  • Ask AI to explain indicators like RSI, MACD, or Bollinger Bands in plain language.

  • Summarize news or market sentiment quickly.

Example:

“Explain how RSI works for crypto trading in under 100 words.”

Always backtest or validate before applying. AI outputs are not financial advice.

2. TradingView & Alerts Setup

AI can help with TradingView scripting and alerts.

  • Write or debug Pine Script strategies.

  • Structure alert conditions to trigger Signal Bots or DCA Bots.

Example:

“Write a Pine Script alert that triggers when BTC crosses above the 200 EMA.”

//@version=5
indicator("BTC Crosses Above 200 EMA", overlay=true)

// Define the EMA length
emaLength = 200

// Calculate EMA
ema200 = ta.ema(close, emaLength)

// Plot EMA
plot(ema200, color=color.orange, linewidth=2, title="200 EMA")

// Detect cross above
crossAbove = ta.crossover(close, ema200)

// Plot a shape on chart
plotshape(crossAbove, title="Cross Above EMA 200", location=location.belowbar,
color=color.green, style=shape.labelup, text="Cross ↑")

// Alert condition
alertcondition(crossAbove, title="BTC Cross Above 200 EMA",
message="BTC has crossed above the 200 EMA!")

3. Writing & Editing JSON for Signal Bots

Not comfortable with JSON? AI can help generate or check your Signal Bot payloads.

Example:

“Generate a JSON message for a Signal Bot to enter long with $50 USDT on BTCUSDT.”

Output might look like:

{
"secret": "your-bot-token",
"action": "enter_long",
"tv_exchange": "BINANCE",
"tv_instrument": "BTCUSDT",
"order": { "amount": "50", "currency_type": "quote" }
}

4. Automating Workflows with External AI

AI can be connected with automation platforms (Zapier, IFTTT, Make).

  • AI analyzes an event → sends webhook → bot reacts.

  • Great for news-based or sentiment-based triggers.

Example:

  • AI tool detects “BTC breakout” trending on Twitter.

  • Zapier sends a webhook to 3Commas.

  • Your Signal Bot opens a new trade automatically.

5. Risk Management with AI Support

AI can speed up calculations and scenario planning.

  • Risk/reward ratio

  • Position sizing

  • Break-even points

Example:

“If I enter ETH at $2,500 with a $200 stop loss and $400 target, what’s the risk/reward ratio?”

AI: Risk/Reward = 1:2

Always cross-check results and never rely solely on AI for execution.

6. What AI Can’t Do

  • AI cannot guarantee profits or predict markets.

  • Human judgment, backtesting, and risk management remain essential.

  • 3Commas does not provide AI signals or financial advice.

Key Takeaway

AI can be a support tool to speed up research, coding, and alerts setup. It does not replace your strategy, risk management, or decision-making.
