Pricing and comparable tiers​

Cornix's current official pricing page displays Advanced at $32.99/month and Premium at $52.99/month. The page has monthly and annual billing views; it advertises a 33% annual discount. Advanced includes three Signals Bots, five Grid Bots, five DCA Bots, five TradingView Bots, 50 monthly backtesting runs and two primary API slots. Premium removes those bot caps, includes 250 monthly backtesting runs and three primary API slots.

Gunbot Unlimited is $29/month with the complete Gunbot feature set and unlimited registered exchange keys/connections within supported venues. Premium is the closer Cornix comparison for unrestricted bot counts, but the products remain different: Cornix is hosted and bot-count/API-slot based, while Gunbot gives the user-run engine and custom JavaScript.

Hosting and API-key security​

Gunbot's trading engine runs on your computer or VPS, with exchange API secrets stored on that installation. Gunbot Live can provide a hosted workspace for remote access and control; the trading engine continues to run on your hardware.

Cornix connects to exchange accounts through API credentials. Its security documentation says user information, including API keys, is encrypted before storage. Cornix's API-key guide requires reading and trading permissions and recommends leaving withdrawal permission disabled. Cornix does not hold the trading balance, but it does operate the hosted API connection.

Strategies, signals and backtesting​

Gunbot Unlimited supports configurable built-in strategies, custom JavaScript strategies and TradingView alerts. Its historical backtesting interface can show trade markers, performance charts, drawdown, exposure, fees and a trade ledger; external APIs and live timing may not reproduce exactly in a historical run.

Cornix is more than a signal copier. Its official bot documentation covers Signals, DCA, Grid and TradingView bots. Signals can come from supported Telegram channels, while TradingView bots execute alerts from a user's external TradingView script. Cornix also documents Signals-bot backtesting and built-in simulated demo accounts. It has no general-purpose in-platform JavaScript engine comparable to Gunbot's custom strategies.

Exchange coverage​

Cornix's current supported-exchange list names Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, KuCoin, BingX, Coinbase, Huobi.pro, MEXC, HyperLiquid and BloFin across spot, futures and inverse categories. Regional variants such as Binance.US, ByBit.eu and OKX.US/EU are called out as unsupported.

Gunbot supports 25+ exchanges, including Binance, Bybit, Bitget, OKX, Kraken, KuCoin, Coinbase Advanced Trade, dYdX, HyperLiquid and PancakeSwap. Spot, futures and DeFi availability varies by venue, so check the exchange-specific Gunbot documentation before purchase.

Best fit​

Choose Gunbot Unlimited when you want a predictable $29/month offer, user-controlled execution infrastructure, custom JavaScript and historical strategy testing. Choose Cornix when your priority is a managed interface for Telegram signals, DCA/Grid automation, TradingView alerts, mobile monitoring and built-in demo/backtesting tools.

Neither service guarantees returns. Signal-provider quality, exchange rules, network conditions, fees and strategy settings all affect results.

Verdict​

Gunbot Unlimited suits builders who want custom code and control of the trading engine. Cornix suits traders who want hosted, mobile-first execution of signals and configured DCA, Grid or TradingView bots. When choosing a Cornix tier, check its bot limits, API slots and backtesting allowance against your needs.
