Important notes!
Futures trading on the new account types with new Binance credits (BNFCR) is now available on 3Commas for those located in one of the EEA countries affected by the recent Binance restriction from June 26th, 2024. You can connect such Binance accounts, as usual, using the Fast Connect method described below. If you have already connected the Binance Futures account, please upgrade your Binance account according to the article from Binance. 3Commas will automatically check the BNFCR balance, and update the connection automatically, you don't have to do anything.
Portfolio Margin mode on the Binance account is not supported on 3Commas! You cannot trade on 3Commas if your Binance account has the Portfolio Margin mode enabled. And you will not be able to connect Binance account with the Portfolio mode turned on to 3Commas via Fast Connect. If you already connected the Binance account and then turned on the Portfolio Margin mode, your active Futures trades will have an error, and you will not be able to open new trades/positions.
When you connect or update the API connection with Binance using Fast Connect, there will be added to 3Commas and/or updated all available for you Binance account types:
Binance
Binance (Margin)
Binance Futures USD-M
Binance Futures COIN-M
If some accounts were not connected, then there may be some restrictions on the country where the Binance user account is created or some other reasons. Users can delete some unneeded accounts and when there will be a need to add some new type of Binance account, then just update the API key using the Fast Connect method, and new types will be added again.
