What Is the AI Assistant?
The AI Assistant is a smart trading companion powered by Gemini Flash 2.5, designed to help you create and backtest trading strategies directly through a chat interface. The AI Assistant is included in the current Starter, Pro, and Expert plans (including active trials). It is not available on Legacy plans.
You can open the AI Assistant from the main navigation:
or directly from the DCA bot creation page using the AI icon:
What You Can Do with It
The AI Assistant helps you:
Build trading strategies by simply describing them in your own words
Configure and backtest DCA bot setups directly from chat
Understand 3Commas tools and features instantly
Simplify onboarding without navigating complex forms
Launch bots faster and with more confidence
It can also answer product-related questions, making it easier for new users to learn 3Commas features quickly and confidently.
Right now, the AI Assistant only creates and backtests DCA bot strategies. It cannot create SmartTrades, Grid bots, Signal bots, or perform any other trading actions outside DCA bots.
The AI Assistant also has access to 3Commas Help Center articles, so it can answer many questions that are not directly related to DCA bots, such as general platform usage, features, or troubleshooting topics.
The AI Assistant is different from the FIN support chatbot. FIN is focused on support and FAQs, while the AI Assistant is focused on creating and backtesting trading strategies in the 3Commas interface.
How It Works
Ask your question or describe a strategy
You can ask the AI how to create a bot with the settings you want, for example: “Create a DCA bot for BTC/USDT using RSI on the 4h chart with four averaging orders.”
AI responds with a Strategy Card or asks for more info:
The AI will build a bot template and show it as a strategy card.Preview your configuration
Hover your mouse over the Config </> label on the Strategy Card to see all bot settings.Backtest and review results
Click Backtest on the Strategy Card to run a quick backtest and view metrics like PnL, drawdown, and win rate.Run the strategy
If you are happy with the setup, click Run strategy to copy the bot settings and activate the bot from that Strategy Card.
Managing Your Chats
The AI Assistant can’t manage your existing bots. It focuses on helping you create and understand new strategies using historical data.
At the top of your AI Assistant window, you’ll find two quick action button:
🕒 History – Tap the clock icon to view your recent chats.
➕ New Chat – Tap the plus icon to start a brand-new conversation with the assistant.
You can start as many different strategy ideas as you like in separate chats. Each chat keeps its own strategy cards and backtest results so you can come back and review them later.

Common Questions
Is it available on my plan?
Yes, if you’re on a current Starter, Pro, or Expert plan. It’s not included in Legacy plans.
Does it cost extra?
No, it’s included in your plan’s monthly subscription limit.
Can I try it during my free trial?
Yes, users on active Starter, Pro, or Expert trials can use the AI Assistant fully.
Does it work in my language?
Yes. The assistant replies in the same language your 3Commas account uses.
Can it create SmartTrades, Grid bots or Signal bots?
No. The AI Assistant only works with DCA bot strategies. If you want to create a SmartTrade or a Grid bot, you still need to set it up yourself in the SmartTrade or Grid Bot sections of the 3Commas software.
Is this the same as the FIN AI bot in support chat?
No. FIN is a support chatbot that helps you with help articles and account or billing questions. The AI Assistant lives inside the trading interface and is designed to help you build, backtest, and launch DCA bot strategies.
