Works on the exchange you already use
+ 80 more3Commas is a well-known bot platform — DCA bots, grid bots, and a smart-trade terminal across connected exchanges. Anny competes on the same connect-your-exchange model but is built intelligence-first: the CFO Anny Line signals when the regime favors acting, Ask Anny reads your live portfolio in plain language, and the Anny MCP server lets Claude or ChatGPT work with your data directly. You get timing and portfolio insight, not just configurable bots.
What Anny adds
AI timing layer
The CFO Anny Line reads market regime and signals accumulate / hold / trim — so you are not hand-tuning DCA and grid parameters from scratch.
Portfolio intelligence
Ask Anny about your real holdings across exchanges: concentration risk, exposure, what changed. A layer a bot terminal does not provide.
AI-assistant ready
Connect Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor to 66 portfolio + market tools via the Anny MCP server.

The quant case
Why most preset-bot strategies stop working
3Commas hands you DCA and grid bots you configure and tune by hand. The problem isn’t the interface — it’s the quant reality that sinks most retail strategies and copy-trading signals:
It’s a lottery, not an edge
Search a thousand parameter combinations and keep the best one, and you haven’t found an edge — you’ve reported the winning ticket. The more variants tested, the higher the odds the “winner” is pure noise. Quants named it: the Probability of Backtest Overfitting.
A Sharpe you can’t audit
A Sharpe ratio is meaningless unless you know how many strategies were tried to find it — and marketplaces never disclose the trial count. Without it you cannot tell a real edge from a fluke. (Correcting for it — a deflated Sharpe — needs the number nobody publishes.)
No regime awareness
A strategy with no regime filter is quietly betting that tomorrow’s market looks like the slice of history it was fit to. Crypto — bull, bear, chop, violent shock — guarantees it won’t. Fixed rules tuned to one regime bleed when the regime flips.
The leaderboard lies by omission
Copy-trading rankings show the accounts that got lucky, not the equal number that blew up and delisted. And roughly half of a real edge decays once the crowd piles in — a public, copyable signal is the most crowded trade there is.
