<p>This page explains some advanced Hyperopt topics that may require higher
coding skills and Python knowledge than creation of an ordinal hyperoptimization
class.</p>
<h2 id="creating-and-using-a-custom-loss-function">Creating and using a custom loss function<a class="headerlink" href="#creating-and-using-a-custom-loss-function" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2>
<p>To use a custom loss function class, make sure that the function <code>hyperopt_loss_function</code> is defined in your custom hyperopt loss class.
For the sample below, you then need to add the command line parameter <code>--hyperopt-loss SuperDuperHyperOptLoss</code> to your hyperopt call so this function is being used.</p>
<p>A sample of this can be found below, which is identical to the Default Hyperopt loss implementation. A full sample can be found in <a href="https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade/blob/develop/freqtrade/templates/sample_hyperopt_loss.py">userdata/hyperopts</a>.</p>

<li><code>trade_count</code>: Amount of trades (identical to <code>len(results)</code>)</li>
<li><code>min_date</code>: Start date of the timerange used</li>
<li><code>min_date</code>: End date of the timerange used</li>
<li><code>config</code>: Config object used (Note: Not all strategy-related parameters will be updated here if they are part of a hyperopt space).</li>
<li><code>processed</code>: Dict of Dataframes with the pair as keys containing the data used for backtesting.</li>
<li><code>backtest_stats</code>: Backtesting statistics using the same format as the backtesting file "strategy" substructure. Available fields can be seen in <code>generate_strategy_stats()</code> in <code>optimize_reports.py</code>.</li>

<p>The <code>dimensions</code> parameter is the list of <code>skopt.space.Dimension</code> objects corresponding to the parameters to be optimized. It can be used to create isotropic kernels for the <code>skopt.learning.GaussianProcessRegressor</code> estimator. Here's an example:</p>

<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>While custom estimators can be provided, it's up to you as User to do research on possible parameters and analyze / understand which ones should be used.
If you're unsure about this, best use one of the Defaults (<code>"ET"</code> has proven to be the most versatile) without further parameters.</p>
</div>
<h2 id="space-options">Space options<a class="headerlink" href="#space-options" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2>
<p>For the additional spaces, scikit-optimize (in combination with Freqtrade) provides the following space types:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>Categorical</code> - Pick from a list of categories (e.g. <code>Categorical(['a', 'b', 'c'], name="cat")</code>)</li>
<li><code>Integer</code> - Pick from a range of whole numbers (e.g. <code>Integer(1, 10, name='rsi')</code>)</li>
<li><code>SKDecimal</code> - Pick from a range of decimal numbers with limited precision (e.g. <code>SKDecimal(0.1, 0.5, decimals=3, name='adx')</code>). <em>Available only with freqtrade</em>.</li>
<li><code>Real</code> - Pick from a range of decimal numbers with full precision (e.g. <code>Real(0.1, 0.5, name='adx')</code></li>
</ul>
<p>You can import all of these from <code>freqtrade.optimize.space</code>, although <code>Categorical</code>, <code>Integer</code> and <code>Real</code> are only aliases for their corresponding scikit-optimize Spaces. <code>SKDecimal</code> is provided by freqtrade for faster optimizations.</p>

<div class="admonition hint">
<p class="admonition-title">SKDecimal vs. Real</p>
<p>We recommend to use <code>SKDecimal</code> instead of the <code>Real</code> space in almost all cases. While the Real space provides full accuracy (up to ~16 decimal places) - this precision is rarely needed, and leads to unnecessary long hyperopt times.</p>
<p>Assuming the definition of a rather small space (<code>SKDecimal(0.10, 0.15, decimals=2, name='xxx')</code>) - SKDecimal will have 5 possibilities (<code>[0.10, 0.11, 0.12, 0.13, 0.14, 0.15]</code>).</p>
<p>A corresponding real space <code>Real(0.10, 0.15 name='xxx')</code> on the other hand has an almost unlimited number of possibilities (<code>[0.10, 0.010000000001, 0.010000000002, ... 0.014999999999, 0.01500000000]</code>).</p>
