What Is TradeSanta? Crypto Trading Bots, Pricing and Exchanges

TradeSanta is subscription software that runs automated trading bots on your own crypto exchange account. You connect an exchange such as Binance or OKX with an API key, set up a DCA or grid bot, and TradeSanta places the orders for you; the funds stay on the exchange, and the company says its access cannot withdraw them 7. It welcomed its first customers in fall 2018 1. Plans run from about $18 to $90 a month as of October 2026, with a 3-day free trial 23. TradeSanta does not charge per-trade fees; your exchange does 6.

How TradeSanta works

TradeSanta sits between you and an exchange. The exchange holds your balance and executes orders; TradeSanta decides when to place them. When a bot starts — immediately, or when an indicator filter fires — it buys a first order of the size you set, then places a take-profit order plus a ladder of "extra orders" 9. If price moves against the position, an extra order fills, the average entry improves, and the take-profit target is moved closer. See how crypto trading bots work for background.

Main tools 29:

  • DCA bot. Averages all fills into one position and closes it together, applying dollar-cost averaging to short-term trading.
  • Grid bot. Takes profit on each buy separately within a price range.
  • Long and short. Bots can run in either direction, including at the same time.
  • Indicator filters. RSI, MACD and Bollinger Bands can gate entries.
  • TradingView signals. Screener signals (Advanced and Maximum) and custom TradingView alerts (Maximum) can trigger bots.
  • Trading terminal. Manual orders across connected exchanges from one screen.

None of this guarantees a profit. TradeSanta's own FAQ says results depend on strategy choice and how much you risk 11. Extra orders also mean committing more money to a falling asset.

Copy Trading

The Copy Trading section lists bots run by other users, with performance statistics and filters by exchange, strategy, spot or futures, and pair. You can copy a bot's settings, edit them and start your own 10. It works both ways: TradeSanta's terms say that by creating and activating a bot you agree that its parameters and performance history may be shown to other users. The terms say no API keys, balances or account identifiers are disclosed 10.

Plans and pricing

As of October 2026, the pricing page shows three plans with a Yearly/Monthly toggle. The lower figure appears to be the monthly price on yearly billing 2:

Plan Price per month Bots Extra features
Basic $18 (yearly) or $25 Up to 49 All strategies, trading terminal
Advanced $32 (yearly) or $45 Up to 99 + Trailing take-profit, TradingView Screener signals
Maximum $45 (yearly) or $90 Unlimited + Custom TradingView signals, futures bots

Every new account starts with a 3-day trial of Maximum; all plans allow unlimited trading pairs and exchange connections 3. You can pay by card or in crypto 2. When a subscription lapses, bots are switched off and may be deleted after 24 hours 11.

The subscription is not the full cost. Every order pays your exchange's maker or taker fee, and futures bots add funding costs and liquidation risk 6. Most exchanges also require a minimum order of roughly $11, so a bot with several extra orders needs a multiple of that 12. See crypto trading fees.

Supported exchanges

TradeSanta's knowledge base lists these as supported 4:

  • Spot: Binance, Binance US, HitBTC, HTX, OKX, XGO
  • Futures: Binance Futures

Other TradeSanta pages show a slightly different set — the exchanges page also displays Kraken, and the help center has an API guide for Bybit 5. Coinbase is not on the current list. Check the exchange menu inside the app before subscribing. Your exchange's own rules on KYC, country access and leverage still apply. Profiles: Binance, OKX, HTX, Kraken.

Getting started and API-key safety

Setup, based on TradeSanta's help center 378:

  1. Register on tradesanta.com or in the iOS/Android app, and turn on two-factor authentication.
  2. On your exchange, create an API key with trading enabled and withdrawals disabled. Save the secret; it is shown only once.
  3. In TradeSanta, open Access Points → Add Access, choose spot or futures and the exchange, and paste the key.
  4. On Binance, restrict the key to TradeSanta's IP list (shown per access point) so it is not usable elsewhere.
  5. Create a bot, or copy one from Copy Trading.

TradeSanta says its keys allow trading only and that bots cannot withdraw funds 7. A trade-only key can still lose money through bad trades if it is stolen, so delete keys you no longer use and ignore "support" that contacts you first (phishing).
