# Analyzing bot data

After performing backtests, or after running the bot for some time, it will be interesting to analyze the results your bot generated.

A good way for this is using Jupyter (notebook or lab) - which provides an interactive environment to analyze the data.

The following helpers will help you loading the data into Pandas DataFrames, and may also give you some starting points in analyzing the results.

## Backtesting

To analyze your backtest results, you can [export the trades](#exporting-trades-to-file).
You can then load the trades to perform further analysis.

Freqtrade provides the `load_backtest_data()` helper function to easily load the backtest results, which takes the path to the the backtest-results file as parameter.

``` python
from freqtrade.data.btanalysis import load_backtest_data
df = load_backtest_data("user_data/backtest_results/backtest-result.json")

# Show value-counts per pair
df.groupby("pair")["sell_reason"].value_counts()

```

This will allow you to drill deeper into your backtest results, and perform analysis which otherwise would make the regular backtest-output very difficult to digest due to information overload.

If you have some ideas for interesting / helpful backtest data analysis ideas, please submit a Pull Request so the community can benefit from it.

## Live data

To analyze the trades your bot generated, you can load them to a DataFrame as follows:

``` python
from freqtrade.data.btanalysis import load_trades_from_db

df = load_trades_from_db("sqlite:///tradesv3.sqlite")

df.groupby("pair")["sell_reason"].value_counts()

```
