Where Lune excels
Purpose-Built for Futures and Prop Firms
Lune is the native platform for CME futures and prop firm traders. Rithmic, ProjectX, NinjaTrader, and Tradovate are supported out of the box with prop firm rules enforced in real time. 3Commas does not support futures at all, so if you trade futures, 3Commas is not an option.
TradingView Automation With Up to 5-10ms Execution
Lune processes TradingView alerts in typically Up to 5-10ms on websocket routes with persistent broker connections. This varies by broker, connection type, and market conditions. It is built specifically for futures execution where speed and broker-specific semantics matter.
Integrated Risk Management
Every order passes through Lune's in-memory risk engine with daily loss caps, trailing drawdown, and max position rules before reaching the broker. Essential for prop firm compliance, and something crypto bot platforms do not need to solve.
Full Platform, Not Just Automation
Automation, Trade Copier, Trading Journal, TradingView Indicators, and a real-time Cockpit share one account connection. 3Commas is a crypto bot platform only, so journaling, risk, and copy trading for futures would be separate tools from separate vendors.
Where 3Commas excels
Crypto Bot Depth
3Commas has mature DCA, grid, smart trade, and AI-assistant bots across crypto exchanges. If you trade crypto and want turnkey bots without writing a strategy, 3Commas has years of product refinement there.
Broad Crypto Exchange Coverage
3Commas connects to Binance, Bybit, Coinbase, and many other crypto exchanges. Traders who work across multiple crypto venues get wide integration breadth.
The ecosystem advantage
3Commas and Lune serve different traders. If your strategy is crypto bots, 3Commas is the mature choice. If your strategy is futures or prop firm trading, Lune replaces the entire stack with one platform: TradingView automation, Trade Copier across four brokers, a journal that auto-syncs every fill, and a risk engine that enforces prop firm rules before orders reach the broker. For futures traders, 3Commas simply is not an option.
FAQ
Common questions
How Lune and 3Commas compare on the details that matter.
No. 3Commas is crypto-only and does not support futures markets like CME, CBOT, NYMEX, or COMEX. For futures or prop firm trading, you need a different platform. Lune is purpose-built for that use case.
