Hosted crypto bot plan calculator

What it computes

Your set-up, priced on six plan ladders. The set-up is what you would write down before opening any pricing page: how many DCA, grid and signal bots run at the same time, how many positions are open at once, how many markets a single bot trades, how many exchanges and how many accounts on the busiest one, and whether any of it is futures or perpetuals. The calculator walks each platform's plans from the cheapest up and stops at the first one whose published limits the set-up does not exceed.

That is the paragraph on the trading bots page about headline prices turned into arithmetic. The platforms meter three different things. 3Commas and WunderTrading count bots per type, with open positions and accounts per exchange alongside. Bitsgap counts bots per family — grid bots, which include BTD and COMBO, and DCA bots, which include LOOP and QFL. HaasOnline TradeServer Cloud and OctoBot Cloud count bots in all, whatever their type. And Cryptohopper sells one bot per subscription and meters how hard it works, so several bots are several subscriptions, each at the tier one bot's share of the markets and positions needs.

For each platform the row gives the plan, its price billed monthly and over a year of monthly billing, and its price billed annually as the yearly charge and its monthly equivalent. Where no plan fits, the row says which limit fails even on the largest plan — a bot type the platform does not have, futures it does not offer, a count above its ceiling. The plans passed over on the way, and the reason each was passed over, are listed under it.

The default set-up is three DCA bots and two grid bots, twenty open positions, one account, spot only. It fits the first or second rung of five ladders, each for a different reason, and fails the sixth, which has no grid bot.

Where the numbers come from

Every price and every limit is read from the vendor's own pricing page on 8 October 2026, and the table prints each page beside its figures. Three figures the pricing pages did not show that day come from our cards instead, each with the card's verification date: Bitsgap has no webhook or TradingView input on any plan, Cryptohopper trades no futures or perpetuals on any tier, and OctoBot Cloud's annual prices, because only the page's monthly tab came through.

Prices are the list prices in the currency each vendor charges, which is US dollars for all six. Every vendor here prints its annual price as a monthly equivalent; the yearly charge is twelve times it, and where the page also prints the saving, as 3Commas, Bitsgap and Cryptohopper do, the two agree.

Where a vendor meters something without stating the figure, or states two figures that disagree, the limit is not filled in. 3Commas' Starter card says "spot trading at 1 exchange" while the list of what every plan includes says nine exchanges, so for a set-up on more than one exchange Starter is shown with that limit marked not modelled rather than passed or failed on it. Where a pricing page sets no plan limit on something at all — open positions on Bitsgap, HaasOnline or OctoBot Cloud — the row says that it was not checked.

The figures live in one table that both this form and the page's Markdown twin read, so the twin prints every limit the form checks, with its document and date.

What it leaves out

Coinrule. Coinrule Cloud charges credits on top of the plan, spent per condition, per watched market per day, per trade and per AI parse, at two cents a credit over the allowance. The bill is set by how active the strategies are, not by how many there are, and no form field here measures that. The legacy Coinrule app caps rules and monthly traded volume instead. Neither has DCA, grid or signal bot types to count. See the Coinrule card.

Whether your exchange is supported. Each platform supports its own list, between eight venues on OctoBot Cloud and about two dozen on HaasOnline, and a plan that fits is no use on a venue the platform does not connect to. The cards carry each list. Futures are narrower still: OctoBot Cloud trades them on two venues only.

Futures availability by region. A plan that includes futures cannot give you access the exchange withholds from your country, and several exchanges restrict derivatives by residence.

Exchange fees and anything charged per trade. The calculator prices the subscription and nothing else. Trading fees go to the exchange. WunderTrading offers its Premium plan with no subscription on Hyperliquid in exchange for a 0.035% builder fee on every trade, a cost that scales with volume and that the form does not price; the perpetual holding cost calculator does.

Trials, free months and promotions. Seven-day trials on 3Commas, Bitsgap, HaasOnline and WunderTrading, Cryptohopper's three days, OctoBot Cloud's trial that its own page gives as both seven and fourteen days, coupons, lifetime deals and any price outside the published list price. HaasOnline's year paid once in Bitcoin, 40% below the monthly card rate, is printed but not priced. VAT is not added.

Free plans that are not on the pricing page. 3Commas' free plan exists but publishes no limits, and Cryptohopper's Pioneer plan automates nothing. Bitsgap's free plan and every paid plan also include COMBO bots on Evedex, a single venue, which are not counted.

Limits the form does not ask about. Open orders per bot on HaasOnline (15, 25 and 50), which a grid bot with many levels can exceed; the strategy scan interval and the number of trading triggers on Cryptohopper; backtest depth everywhere; and the higher, quoted tiers above each ladder. WunderTrading's page prices by location; the dollar figures used here were read on 9 October 2026 and a reader elsewhere may see another currency.

Positions spread across Cryptohopper subscriptions. The calculator splits your open positions evenly across your bots, rounded up, and checks one bot's share against one tier. If one bot carries most of the positions, that bot needs a higher tier than the rest.
