Freqtrade documentation assumes the use of Docker desktop (or the docker compose plugin).
While the docker-compose standalone installation still works, it will require changing all `docker compose` commands from `docker compose` to `docker-compose` to work (e.g. `docker compose up -d` will become `docker-compose up -d`).
??? Warning "Docker on windows"
If you just installed docker on a windows system, make sure to reboot your system, otherwise you might encounter unexplainable Problems related to network connectivity to docker containers.
## Freqtrade with docker
Freqtrade provides an official Docker image on [Dockerhub](https://hub.docker.com/r/freqtradeorg/freqtrade/), as well as a [docker compose file](https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade/blob/stable/docker-compose.yml) ready for usage.

If you're running on a VPS, you should consider using either a ssh tunnel, or setup a VPN (openVPN, wireguard) to connect to your bot.
This will ensure that freqUI is not directly exposed to the internet, which is not recommended for security reasons (freqUI does not support https out of the box).
Setup of these tools is not part of this tutorial, however many good tutorials can be found on the internet.

The market api requests require a synchronized clock but the time in the docker container shifts a bit over time into the past.
To fix this issue temporarily you need to run `wsl --shutdown` and restart docker again (a popup on windows 10 will ask you to do so).
A permanent solution is either to host the docker container on a linux host or restart the wsl from time to time with the scheduler.

If you're on windows and just installed Docker (desktop), make sure to reboot your System. Docker can have problems with network connectivity without a restart.
You should obviously also make sure to have your [settings](#accessing-the-ui) accordingly.
!!! Warning
Due to the above, we do not recommend the usage of docker on windows for production setups, but only for experimentation, datadownload and backtesting.
Best use a linux-VPS for running freqtrade reliably.
