## Branches
|
||||||
`minimal_roi` is a JSON object where the key is a duration
|
The project is currently setup in two main branches:
|
||||||
in minutes and the value is the minimum ROI in percent.
|
- `develop` - This branch has often new features, but might also cause
|
||||||
See the example below:
|
breaking changes.
|
||||||
```
|
- `master` - This branch contains the latest stable release. The bot
|
||||||
"minimal_roi": {
|
'should' be stable on this branch, and is generally well tested.

||||||
"40": 0.0, # Sell after 40 minutes if the profit is not negative
|
|
||||||
"30": 0.01, # Sell after 30 minutes if there is at least 1% profit
|
|
||||||
"20": 0.02, # Sell after 20 minutes if there is at least 2% profit
|
|
||||||
"0": 0.04 # Sell immediately if there is at least 4% profit
|
|
||||||
},
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|

||||||
`stoploss` is loss in percentage that should trigger a sale.

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Prerequisites
|
|
||||||
* python3.6
|
|
||||||
* sqlite
|
|
||||||
* [TA-lib](https://github.com/mrjbq7/ta-lib#dependencies) binaries
|

* Minimal (advised) system requirements: 2GB RAM, 1GB data, 2vCPU
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Install
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Arch Linux
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Use your favorite AUR helper and install `python-freqtrade-git`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Manually
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`master` branch contains the latest stable release.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`develop` branch has often new features, but might also cause breaking changes. To use it, you are encouraged to join our [slack channel](https://join.slack.com/t/highfrequencybot/shared_invite/enQtMjQ5NTM0OTYzMzY3LWMxYzE3M2MxNDdjMGM3ZTYwNzFjMGIwZGRjNTc3ZGU3MGE3NzdmZGMwNmU3NDM5ZTNmM2Y3NjRiNzk4NmM4OGE).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
$ cd freqtrade/
|
|
||||||
# copy example config. Dont forget to insert your api keys
|
|
||||||
$ cp config.json.example config.json
|
|
||||||
$ python -m venv .env
|
|
||||||
$ source .env/bin/activate
|
|
||||||
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
||||||
$ pip install -e .
|
|
||||||
$ ./freqtrade/main.py
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There is also an [article](https://www.sales4k.com/blockchain/high-frequency-trading-bot-tutorial/) about how to setup the bot (thanks [@gurghet](https://github.com/gurghet)).*
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\* *Note:* that article was written for an earlier version, so it may be outdated
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Docker
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Building the image:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
$ cd freqtrade
|
|
||||||
$ docker build -t freqtrade .
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For security reasons, your configuration file will not be included in the
|
|
||||||
image, you will need to bind mount it. It is also advised to bind mount
|
|
||||||
a SQLite database file (see second example) to keep it between updates.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can run a one-off container that is immediately deleted upon exiting with
|
|
||||||
the following command (config.json must be in the current working directory):
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
$ docker run --rm -v `pwd`/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json -it freqtrade
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To run a restartable instance in the background (feel free to place your
|
|
||||||
configuration and database files wherever it feels comfortable on your
|
|
||||||
filesystem):
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
$ cd ~/.freq
|
|
||||||
$ touch tradesv3.sqlite
|
|
||||||
$ docker run -d \
|
|
||||||
--name freqtrade \
|
|
||||||
-v ~/.freq/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json \
|
|
||||||
-v ~/.freq/tradesv3.sqlite:/freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite \
|
|
||||||
freqtrade
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
If you are using `dry_run=True` it's not necessary to mount `tradesv3.sqlite`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can then use the following commands to monitor and manage your container:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
$ docker logs freqtrade
|
|
||||||
$ docker logs -f freqtrade
|
|
||||||
$ docker restart freqtrade
|
|
||||||
$ docker stop freqtrade
|
|
||||||
$ docker start freqtrade
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You do not need to rebuild the image for configuration
|
|
||||||
changes, it will suffice to edit `config.json` and restart the container.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### systemd service file
|
|
||||||
Copy `./freqtrade.service` to your systemd user directory (usually `~/.config/systemd/user`)
|
|
||||||
and update `WorkingDirectory` and `ExecStart` to match your setup.
|
|
||||||
After that you can start the daemon with:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
```bash
|
||||||
$ systemctl --user start freqtrade
|
git clone git@github.com:gcarq/freqtrade.git
|
||||||
|
git checkout develop
|
||||||
|
cd freqtrade
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
**2. Create the config file**
|
||||||
|
Switch `"dry_run": true,`
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
cp config.json.example config.json
|
||||||
|
vi config.json
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
**3. Build your docker image and run it**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
docker build -t freqtrade .
|
||||||
|
docker run --rm -v `pwd`/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json -it freqtrade
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
### Telegram RPC commands
|
||||||
|
Telegram is not mandatory. However, this is a great way to control your
|
||||||
|
bot. More details on our
|
||||||
|
[documentation](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/docs/index.md)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Dynamic whitelist example
|
- `/start`: Starts the trader
|
||||||
Per default `--dynamic-whitelist` will retrieve the 20 currencies based
|
- `/stop`: Stops the trader
|
||||||
on BaseVolume. This value can be changed when you run the script.
|
- `/status [table]`: Lists all open trades
|
||||||
|
- `/count`: Displays number of open trades
|
||||||
**By Default**
|
- `/profit`: Lists cumulative profit from all finished trades
|
||||||
Get the 20 currencies based on BaseVolume.
|
- `/forcesell <trade_id>|all`: Instantly sells the given trade
|
||||||
```bash
|
(Ignoring `minimum_roi`).
|
||||||
freqtrade --dynamic-whitelist
|
- `/performance`: Show performance of each finished trade grouped by pair
|
||||||
```
|
- `/balance`: Show account balance per currency
|
||||||
|
- `/daily <n>`: Shows profit or loss per day, over the last n days
|
||||||
**Customize the number of currencies to retrieve**
|
- `/help`: Show help message
|
||||||
Get the 30 currencies based on BaseVolume.
|
- `/version`: Show version
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
freqtrade --dynamic-whitelist 30
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Exception**
|
|
||||||
`--dynamic-whitelist` must be greater than 0. If you enter 0 or a
|
|
||||||
negative value (e.g -2), `--dynamic-whitelist` will use the default
|
|
||||||
value (20).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Backtesting
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Backtesting also uses the config specified via `-c/--config`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
usage: freqtrade backtesting [-h] [-l] [-i INT] [--realistic-simulation]
|
|
||||||
[-r]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
optional arguments:
|
|
||||||
-h, --help show this help message and exit
|
|
||||||
-l, --live using live data
|
|
||||||
-i INT, --ticker-interval INT
|
|
||||||
specify ticker interval in minutes (default: 5)
|
|
||||||
--realistic-simulation
|
|
||||||
uses max_open_trades from config to simulate real
|
|
||||||
world limitations
|
|
||||||
-r, --refresh-pairs-cached
|
|
||||||
refresh the pairs files in tests/testdata with
|
|
||||||
the latest data from Bittrex. Use it if you want
|
|
||||||
to run your backtesting with up-to-date data.
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### How to use --refresh-pairs-cached parameter?
|
|
||||||
The first time your run Backtesting, it will take the pairs your have
|
|
||||||
set in your config file and download data from Bittrex.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If for any reason you want to update your data set, you use
|
|
||||||
`--refresh-pairs-cached` to force Backtesting to update the data it has.
|
|
||||||
**Use it only if you want to update your data set. You will not be able
|
|
||||||
to come back to the previous version.**
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To test your strategy with latest data, we recommend to continue using
|
|
||||||
the parameter `-l` or `--live`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Hyperopt
|
## Min hardware required
|
||||||
|
To run this bot we recommend you a cloud instance with a minimum of:
|
||||||
It is possible to use hyperopt for trading strategy optimization.
|
* Minimal (advised) system requirements: 2GB RAM, 1GB disk space, 2vCPU
|
||||||
Hyperopt uses an internal config named `OPTIMIZE_CONFIG` located in `freqtrade/optimize/hyperopt.py`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
usage: freqtrade hyperopt [-h] [-e INT] [--use-mongodb]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
optional arguments:
|
|
||||||
-h, --help show this help message and exit
|
|
||||||
-e INT, --epochs INT specify number of epochs (default: 100)
|
|
||||||
--use-mongodb parallelize evaluations with mongodb (requires mongod
|
|
||||||
in PATH)
|
|
||||||

# Bot Optimization
|
||||||
|
This page explains where to customize your strategies, validate their
|
||||||
|
performance by using Backtesting, and tuning them by finding the optimal
|
||||||
|
parameters with Hyperopt.
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Change your strategy
|
||||||
|
The bot is using buy and sell strategies to buy and sell your trades.
|
||||||
|
Both are customizable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Buy strategy
|
||||||
|
The default buy strategy is located in the file
|
||||||
|
[freqtrade/analyze.py](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/freqtrade/analyze.py#L73-L92).
|
||||||
|
Edit the function `populate_buy_trend()` to update your buy strategy.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Sample:
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def populate_buy_trend(dataframe: DataFrame) -> DataFrame:
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
Based on TA indicators, populates the buy signal for the given dataframe
|
||||||
|
:param dataframe: DataFrame
|
||||||
|
:return: DataFrame with buy column
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
dataframe.loc[
|
||||||
|
(
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['rsi'] < 35) &
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['fastd'] < 35) &
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['adx'] > 30) &
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['plus_di'] > 0.5)
|
||||||
|
) |
|
||||||
|
(
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['adx'] > 65) &
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['plus_di'] > 0.5)
|
||||||
|
),
|
||||||
|
'buy'] = 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
return dataframe
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Sell strategy
|
||||||
|
The default buy strategy is located in the file
|
||||||
|
[freqtrade/analyze.py](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/freqtrade/analyze.py#L95-L115)
|
||||||
|
Edit the function `populate_sell_trend()` to update your buy strategy.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Sample:
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def populate_sell_trend(dataframe: DataFrame) -> DataFrame:
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
Based on TA indicators, populates the sell signal for the given dataframe
|
||||||
|
:param dataframe: DataFrame
|
||||||
|
:return: DataFrame with buy column
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
dataframe.loc[
|
||||||
|
(
|
||||||
|
(
|
||||||
|
(crossed_above(dataframe['rsi'], 70)) |
|
||||||
|
(crossed_above(dataframe['fastd'], 70))
|
||||||
|
) &
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['adx'] > 10) &
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['minus_di'] > 0)
|
||||||
|
) |
|
||||||
|
(
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['adx'] > 70) &
|
||||||
|
(dataframe['minus_di'] > 0.5)
|
||||||
|
),
|
||||||
|
'sell'] = 1
|
||||||
|
return dataframe
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Add more Indicator
|
||||||
|
As you have seen, buy and sell strategies need indicators. You can see
|
||||||
|
the indicators in the file
|
||||||
|
[freqtrade/analyze.py](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/freqtrade/analyze.py#L95-L115).
|
||||||
|
Of course you can add more indicators by extending the list contained in
|
||||||
|
the function `populate_indicators()`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Sample:
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def populate_indicators(dataframe: DataFrame) -> DataFrame:
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
Adds several different TA indicators to the given DataFrame
|
||||||
|
"""
|
||||||
|
dataframe['sar'] = ta.SAR(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['adx'] = ta.ADX(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
stoch = ta.STOCHF(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['fastd'] = stoch['fastd']
|
||||||
|
dataframe['fastk'] = stoch['fastk']
|
||||||
|
dataframe['blower'] = ta.BBANDS(dataframe, nbdevup=2, nbdevdn=2)['lowerband']
|
||||||
|
dataframe['sma'] = ta.SMA(dataframe, timeperiod=40)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['tema'] = ta.TEMA(dataframe, timeperiod=9)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['mfi'] = ta.MFI(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['rsi'] = ta.RSI(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['ema5'] = ta.EMA(dataframe, timeperiod=5)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['ema10'] = ta.EMA(dataframe, timeperiod=10)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['ema50'] = ta.EMA(dataframe, timeperiod=50)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['ema100'] = ta.EMA(dataframe, timeperiod=100)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['ao'] = awesome_oscillator(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
macd = ta.MACD(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['macd'] = macd['macd']
|
||||||
|
dataframe['macdsignal'] = macd['macdsignal']
|
||||||
|
dataframe['macdhist'] = macd['macdhist']
|
||||||
|
hilbert = ta.HT_SINE(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['htsine'] = hilbert['sine']
|
||||||
|
dataframe['htleadsine'] = hilbert['leadsine']
|
||||||
|
dataframe['plus_dm'] = ta.PLUS_DM(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['plus_di'] = ta.PLUS_DI(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['minus_dm'] = ta.MINUS_DM(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
dataframe['minus_di'] = ta.MINUS_DI(dataframe)
|
||||||
|
return dataframe
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Test your strategy with Backtesting
|
||||||
|
Now you have good Buy and Sell strategies, you want to test it against
|
||||||
|
real data. This is what we call [backtesting](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backtesting).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Backtesting will use the crypto-currencies (pair) tickers located in
|
||||||
|
[/freqtrade/tests/testdata](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/tree/develop/freqtrade/tests/testdata).
|
||||||
|
If the 5 min and 1 min ticker for the crypto-currencies to test is not
|
||||||
|
already in the `testdata` folder, backtesting will download them
|
||||||
|
automatically. Testdata files will not be updated until your specify it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Run a backtesting against the currencies listed in your config file
|
||||||
|
**With 5 min tickers (Per default)**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3 ./freqtrade/main.py -c config.json backtesting --realistic-simulation
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**With 1 min tickers**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3 ./freqtrade/main.py -c config.json backtesting --realistic-simulation --ticker-interval 1
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Reload your testdata files**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3 ./freqtrade/main.py -c config.json backtesting --realistic-simulation --refresh-pairs-cached
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**With live data (do not alter your testdata files)**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3 ./freqtrade/main.py -c config.json backtesting --realistic-simulation --live
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Find optimal parameters with Hyperopt

usage: main.py [-h] [-c PATH] [-v] [--version] [--dynamic-whitelist [INT]]
|
||||||
|
[--dry-run-db]
|
||||||
|
{backtesting,hyperopt} ...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Simple High Frequency Trading Bot for crypto currencies
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
positional arguments:
|
||||||
|
{backtesting,hyperopt}
|
||||||
|
backtesting backtesting module
|
||||||
|
hyperopt hyperopt module
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
optional arguments:
|
||||||
|
-h, --help show this help message and exit
|
||||||
|
-c PATH, --config PATH
|
||||||
|
specify configuration file (default: config.json)
|
||||||
|
-v, --verbose be verbose
|
||||||
|
--version show program's version number and exit
|
||||||
|
--dynamic-whitelist [INT]
|
||||||
|
dynamically generate and update whitelist based on 24h
|
||||||
|
BaseVolume (Default 20 currencies)
|
||||||
|
--dry-run-db Force dry run to use a local DB
|
||||||
|
"tradesv3.dry_run.sqlite" instead of memory DB. Work
|
||||||
|
only if dry_run is enabled.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### How to use a different config file?
|
||||||
|
The bot allows you to select which config file you want to use. Per
|
||||||
|
default, the bot will load the file `./config.json`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3 ./freqtrade/main.py -c path/far/far/away/config.json
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### How to use --dynamic-whitelist?
|
||||||
|
Per default `--dynamic-whitelist` will retrieve the 20 currencies based
|
||||||
|
on BaseVolume. This value can be changed when you run the script.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**By Default**
|
||||||
|
Get the 20 currencies based on BaseVolume.
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3 ./freqtrade/main.py --dynamic-whitelist
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Customize the number of currencies to retrieve**
|
||||||
|
Get the 30 currencies based on BaseVolume.
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3 ./freqtrade/main.py --dynamic-whitelist 30
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Exception**
|
||||||
|
`--dynamic-whitelist` must be greater than 0. If you enter 0 or a
|
||||||
|
negative value (e.g -2), `--dynamic-whitelist` will use the default
|
||||||
|
value (20).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### How to use --dry-run-db?
|
||||||
|
When you run the bot in Dry-run mode, per default no transactions are
|
||||||
|
stored in a database. If you want to store your bot actions in a DB
|
||||||
|
using `--dry-run-db`. This command will use a separate database file
|
||||||
|
`tradesv3.dry_run.sqlite`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3 ./freqtrade/main.py -c config.json --dry-run-db
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Backtesting commands
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Backtesting also uses the config specified via `-c/--config`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
usage: freqtrade backtesting [-h] [-l] [-i INT] [--realistic-simulation]
|
||||||
|
[-r]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
optional arguments:
|
||||||
|
-h, --help show this help message and exit
|
||||||
|
-l, --live using live data
|
||||||
|
-i INT, --ticker-interval INT
|
||||||
|
specify ticker interval in minutes (default: 5)
|
||||||
|
--realistic-simulation
|
||||||
|
uses max_open_trades from config to simulate real
|
||||||
|
world limitations
|
||||||
|
-r, --refresh-pairs-cached
|
||||||
|
refresh the pairs files in tests/testdata with
|
||||||
|
the latest data from Bittrex. Use it if you want
|
||||||
|
to run your backtesting with up-to-date data.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### How to use --refresh-pairs-cached parameter?
|
||||||
|
The first time your run Backtesting, it will take the pairs you have
|
||||||
|
set in your config file and download data from Bittrex.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If for any reason you want to update your data set, you use
|
||||||
|
`--refresh-pairs-cached` to force Backtesting to update the data it has.
|
||||||
|
**Use it only if you want to update your data set. You will not be able
|
||||||
|
to come back to the previous version.**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To test your strategy with latest data, we recommend continuing using
|
||||||
|
the parameter `-l` or `--live`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Hyperopt commands
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is possible to use hyperopt for trading strategy optimization.
|
||||||
|
Hyperopt uses an internal json config return by `hyperopt_optimize_conf()`
|
||||||
|
located in `freqtrade/optimize/hyperopt_conf.py`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
usage: freqtrade hyperopt [-h] [-e INT] [--use-mongodb]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
optional arguments:
|
||||||
|
-h, --help show this help message and exit
|
||||||
|
-e INT, --epochs INT specify number of epochs (default: 100)
|
||||||
|
--use-mongodb parallelize evaluations with mongodb (requires mongod
|
||||||
|
in PATH)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## A parameter missing in the configuration?
|
||||||
|
All parameters for `main.py`, `backtesting`, `hyperopt` are referenced
|
||||||
|
in [misc.py](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/freqtrade/misc.py#L84)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Next step
|
||||||
|
The optimal strategy of the bot will change with time depending of the
|
||||||
|
market trends. The next step is to
|
||||||
|
[optimize your bot](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/docs/bot-optimization.md).

[misc.py](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/freqtrade/misc.py#L205).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Understand minimal_roi
|
||||||
|
`minimal_roi` is a JSON object where the key is a duration
|
||||||
|
in minutes and the value is the minimum ROI in percent.
|
||||||
|
See the example below:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
"minimal_roi": {
|
||||||
|
"40": 0.0, # Sell after 40 minutes if the profit is not negative
|
||||||
|
"30": 0.01, # Sell after 30 minutes if there is at least 1% profit
|
||||||
|
"20": 0.02, # Sell after 20 minutes if there is at least 2% profit
|
||||||
|
"0": 0.04 # Sell immediately if there is at least 4% profit
|
||||||
|
},
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Understand stoploss
|
||||||
|
`stoploss` is loss in percentage that should trigger a sale.
|
||||||
|
For example value `-0.10` will cause immediate sell if the
|
||||||
|
profit dips below -10% for a given trade. This parameter is optional.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Understand initial_state
|
||||||
|
`initial_state` is an optional field that defines the initial application state.
|
||||||
|
Possible values are `running` or `stopped`. (default=`running`)
|
||||||
|
If the value is `stopped` the bot has to be started with `/start` first.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Understand ask_last_balance
|
||||||
|
`ask_last_balance` sets the bidding price. Value `0.0` will use `ask` price, `1.0` will
|
||||||
|
use the `last` price and values between those interpolate between ask and last
|
||||||
|
price. Using `ask` price will guarantee quick success in bid, but bot will also
|
||||||
|
end up paying more then would probably have been necessary.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### What values for fiat_display_currency?
|
||||||
|
`fiat_display_currency` set the fiat to use for the conversion form coin to fiat in Telegram.
|
||||||
|
The valid value are: "AUD", "BRL", "CAD", "CHF", "CLP", "CNY", "CZK", "DKK", "EUR", "GBP", "HKD", "HUF", "IDR", "ILS", "INR", "JPY", "KRW", "MXN", "MYR", "NOK", "NZD", "PHP", "PKR", "PLN", "RUB", "SEK", "SGD", "THB", "TRY", "TWD", "ZAR", "USD".
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Switch to dry-run mode
|
||||||
|
We recommend starting the bot in dry-run mode to see how your bot will
|
||||||
|
behave and how is the performance of your strategy. In Dry-run mode the
|
||||||
|
bot does not engage your money. It only runs a live simulation without
|
||||||
|
creating trades.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### To switch your bot in Dry-run mode:
|
||||||
|
1. Edit your `config.json` file
|
||||||
|
2. Switch dry-run to true
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
"dry_run": true,
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Remove your Bittrex API key (change them by fake api credentials)
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
"exchange": {
|
||||||
|
"name": "bittrex",
|
||||||
|
"key": "key",
|
||||||
|
"secret": "secret",
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once you will be happy with your bot performance, you can switch it to
|
||||||
|
production mode.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Switch to production mode
|
||||||
|
In production mode, the bot will engage your money. Be careful a wrong
|
||||||
|
strategy can lose all your money. Be aware of what you are doing when
|
||||||
|
you run it in production mode.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### To switch your bot in production mode:
|
||||||
|
1. Edit your `config.json` file
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Switch dry-run to false
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
"dry_run": false,
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Insert your Bittrex API key (change them by fake api keys)
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
"exchange": {
|
||||||
|
"name": "bittrex",
|
||||||
|
"key": "af8ddd35195e9dc500b9a6f799f6f5c93d89193b",
|
||||||
|
"secret": "08a9dc6db3d7b53e1acebd9275677f4b0a04f1a5",
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
If you have not your Bittrex API key yet,
|
||||||
|
[see our tutorial](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/docs/pre-requisite.md).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Next step
|
||||||
|
Now you have configured your config.json, the next step is to
|
||||||
|
[start your bot](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/docs/bot-usage.md).

# freqtrade FAQ
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### I have waited 5 minutes, why hasn't the bot made any trades yet?!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Depending on the buy strategy, the amount of whitelisted coins, the situation of the market etc, it can take up to hours to find good entry position for a trade. Be patient!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### I have made 12 trades already, why is my total profit negative?!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I understand your disappointment but unfortunately 12 trades is just not enough to say anything. If you run backtesting, you can see that our current algorithm does leave you on the plus side, but that is after thousands of trades and even there, you will be left with losses on specific coins that you have traded tens if not hundreds of times. We of course constantly aim to improve the bot but it will _always_ be a gamble, which should leave you with modest wins on monthly basis but you can't say much from few trades.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### I’d like to change the stake amount. Can I just stop the bot with /stop and then change the config.json and run it again?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Not quite. Trades are persisted to a database but the configuration is currently only read when the bot is killed and restarted. `/stop` more like pauses. You can stop your bot, adjust settings and start it again.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### I want to improve the bot with a new strategy
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
That's great. We have a nice backtesting and hyperoptimizing setup. See the tutorial [[here|Testing-new-strategies-with-Hyperopt]].
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Is there a setting to only SELL the coins being held and not perform anymore BUYS?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can use the `/forcesell all` command from Telegram.

# Docker
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Easy installation
|
||||||
|
Start by downloading Docker for your platform:
|
||||||
|
- [Mac](https://www.docker.com/products/docker#/mac)
|
||||||
|
- [Windows](https://www.docker.com/products/docker#/windows)
|
||||||
|
- [Linux](https://www.docker.com/products/docker#/linux)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once you have Docker installed, simply create the config file
|
||||||
|
(e.g. `config.json`) and then create a Docker image for `freqtrade`
|
||||||
|
using the Dockerfile in this repo.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1. Prepare the bot
|
||||||
|
1. Clone the git
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
git clone git@github.com:gcarq/freqtrade.git
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
2. (Optional) Checkout the develop branch
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
git checkout develop
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
3. Go into the new directory
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
cd freqtrade
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
4. Copy `config.sample` to `config.json`
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
cp config.json.example config.json
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
To edit the config please refer to the [Bot Configuration](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/docs/configuration.md) page
|
||||||
|
5. Create your DB file
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# For Production
|
||||||
|
touch tradesv3.sqlite
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# For Dry-run
|
||||||
|
touch tradesv3.dryrun.sqlite
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Build the docker image
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
cd freqtrade
|
||||||
|
docker build -t freqtrade .
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For security reasons, your configuration file will not be included in the
|
||||||
|
image, you will need to bind mount it. It is also advised to bind mount
|
||||||
|
a sqlite database file (see the "5. Run a restartable docker image"
|
||||||
|
section) to keep it between updates.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 3. Verify the docker image
|
||||||
|
After build process you can verify that the image was created with:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
docker images
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4. Run the docker image
|
||||||
|
You can run a one-off container that is immediately deleted upon exiting with
|
||||||
|
the following command (config.json must be in the current working directory):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
docker run --rm -v `pwd`/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json -it freqtrade
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In this example, the database will be created inside the docker instance
|
||||||
|
and will be lost when you will refresh your image.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 5. Run a restartable docker image
|
||||||
|
To run a restartable instance in the background (feel free to place your
|
||||||
|
configuration and database files wherever it feels comfortable on your
|
||||||
|
filesystem).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**5.1. Move your config file and database**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
mkdir ~/.freqtrade
|
||||||
|
mv config.json ~/.freqtrade
|
||||||
|
mv tradesv3.sqlite ~/.freqtrade
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**5.2. Run the docker image**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
docker run -d \
|
||||||
|
--name freqtrade \
|
||||||
|
-v ~/.freqtrade/config.json:/freqtrade/config.json \
|
||||||
|
-v ~/.freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite:/freqtrade/tradesv3.sqlite \
|
||||||
|
freqtrade
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
If you are using `dry_run=True` it's not necessary to mount
|
||||||
|
`tradesv3.sqlite`, but you can mount `tradesv3.dryrun.sqlite` if you
|
||||||
|
plan to use the dry run mode with the param `--dry-run-db`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 6. Monitor your Docker instance
|
||||||
|
You can then use the following commands to monitor and manage your container:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
docker logs freqtrade
|
||||||
|
docker logs -f freqtrade
|
||||||
|
docker restart freqtrade
|
||||||
|
docker stop freqtrade
|
||||||
|
docker start freqtrade
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You do not need to rebuild the image for configuration changes, it will
|
||||||
|
suffice to edit `config.json` and restart the container.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
To edit the config please refer to [Bot Configuration](https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade/blob/develop/docs/configuration.md)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 5. Setup your virtual env
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3.6 -m venv .env
|
||||||
|
source .env/bin/activate
|
||||||
|
pip3.6 install -r requirements.txt
|
||||||
|
pip3.6 install -e .
|
||||||
|
pip3.6 install hyperopt
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 6. Run the bot
|
||||||
|
If this is the first time you run the bot, ensure you are running it
|
||||||
|
in Dry-run `"dry_run": true,` otherwise it will start to buy and sell coins.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
python3.6 ./freqtrade/main.py -c config.json
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Advanced Linux
|
||||||
|
**systemd service file**
|
||||||
|
Copy `./freqtrade.service` to your systemd user directory (usually `~/.config/systemd/user`)
|
||||||
|
and update `WorkingDirectory` and `ExecStart` to match your setup.
|
||||||
|
After that you can start the daemon with:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
systemctl --user start freqtrade
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Windows
|
||||||
|
We do recommend Windows users to use [Docker](#docker) this will work
|
||||||
|
much easier and smoother (also safer).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```cmd
|
||||||
|
#copy paste config.json to \path\freqtrade-develop\freqtrade
|
||||||
|
>cd \path\freqtrade-develop
|
||||||
|
>python -m venv .env
|
||||||
|
>cd .env\Scripts
|
||||||
|
>activate.bat
|
||||||
|
>cd \path\freqtrade-develop
|
||||||
|
>pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||||||
|
>pip install -e .
|
||||||
|
>cd freqtrade
|
||||||
|
>python main.py
|
||||||
|
```

# Pre-requisite
|
||||||
|
Before running your bot in production you will need to setup few
|
||||||
|
external API. In production mode, the bot required valid Bittrex API
|
||||||
|
credentials and a Telegram bot (optional but recommended).
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
- [Backtesting commands](#setup-your-telegram-bot)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Setup your Bittrex account
|
||||||
|
*To be completed, please feel free to complete this section.*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Setup your Telegram bot
|
||||||
|
The only things you need is a working Telegram bot and its API token.
|
||||||
|
Below we explain how to create your Telegram Bot, and how to get your
|
||||||
|
Telegram user id.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1. Create your instagram bot
|
||||||
|
**1.1. Start a chat with https://telegram.me/BotFather**
|
||||||
|
**1.2. Send the message** `/newbot`
|
||||||
|
*BotFather response:*
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Alright, a new bot. How are we going to call it? Please choose a name for your bot.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
**1.3. Choose the public name of your bot (e.g "`Freqtrade bot`")**
|
||||||
|
*BotFather response:*
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Good. Now let's choose a username for your bot. It must end in `bot`. Like this, for example: TetrisBot or tetris_bot.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
**1.4. Choose the name id of your bot (e.g "`My_own_freqtrade_bot`")**
|
||||||
|
**1.5. Father bot will return you the token (API key)**
|
||||||
|
Copy it and keep it you will use it for the config parameter `token`.
|
||||||
|
*BotFather response:*
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Done! Congratulations on your new bot. You will find it at t.me/My_own_freqtrade_bot. You can now add a description, about section and profile picture for your bot, see /help for a list of commands. By the way, when you've finished creating your cool bot, ping our Bot Support if you want a better username for it. Just make sure the bot is fully operational before you do this.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Use this token to access the HTTP API:
|
||||||
|
521095879:AAEcEZEL7ADJ56FtG_qD0bQJSKETbXCBCi0
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For a description of the Bot API, see this page: https://core.telegram.org/bots/api
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Get your user id
|
||||||
|
**2.1. Talk to https://telegram.me/userinfobot**
|
||||||
|
**2.2. Get your "Id", you will use it for the config parameter
|
||||||
|
`chat_id`.**
