# Strategy analysis example
|
|
|
|
Debugging a strategy can be time-consuming. Freqtrade offers helper functions to visualize raw data.
|
|
The following assumes you work with SampleStrategy, data for 5m timeframe from Binance and have downloaded them into the data directory in the default location.
|
|
Please follow the [documentation](https://www.freqtrade.io/en/stable/data-download/) for more details.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
### Change Working directory to repository root
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import os
|
|
from pathlib import Path
|
|
|
|
# Change directory
|
|
# Modify this cell to insure that the output shows the correct path.
|
|
# Define all paths relative to the project root shown in the cell output
|
|
project_root = "somedir/freqtrade"
|
|
i=0
|
|
try:
|
|
os.chdir(project_root)
|
|
assert Path('LICENSE').is_file()
|
|
except:
|
|
while i<4 and (not Path('LICENSE').is_file()):
|
|
os.chdir(Path(Path.cwd(), '../'))
|
|
i+=1
|
|
project_root = Path.cwd()
|
|
print(Path.cwd())
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Configure Freqtrade environment
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from freqtrade.configuration import Configuration
|
|
|
|
# Customize these according to your needs.
|
|
|
|
# Initialize empty configuration object
|
|
config = Configuration.from_files([])
|
|
# Optionally (recommended), use existing configuration file
|
|
# config = Configuration.from_files(["user_data/config.json"])
|
|
|
|
# Define some constants
|
|
config["timeframe"] = "5m"
|
|
# Name of the strategy class
|
|
config["strategy"] = "SampleStrategy"
|
|
# Location of the data
|
|
data_location = config["datadir"]
|
|
# Pair to analyze - Only use one pair here
|
|
pair = "BTC/USDT"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Load data using values set above
|
|
from freqtrade.data.history import load_pair_history
|
|
from freqtrade.enums import CandleType
|
|
|
|
candles = load_pair_history(datadir=data_location,
|
|
timeframe=config["timeframe"],
|
|
pair=pair,
|
|
data_format = "json", # Make sure to update this to your data
|
|
candle_type=CandleType.SPOT,
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
# Confirm success
|
|
print(f"Loaded {len(candles)} rows of data for {pair} from {data_location}")
|
|
candles.head()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Load and run strategy
|
|
* Rerun each time the strategy file is changed
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Load strategy using values set above
|
|
from freqtrade.resolvers import StrategyResolver
|
|
from freqtrade.data.dataprovider import DataProvider
|
|
strategy = StrategyResolver.load_strategy(config)
|
|
strategy.dp = DataProvider(config, None, None)
|
|
strategy.ft_bot_start()
|
|
|
|
# Generate buy/sell signals using strategy
|
|
df = strategy.analyze_ticker(candles, {'pair': pair})
|
|
df.tail()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Display the trade details
|
|
|
|
* Note that using `data.head()` would also work, however most indicators have some "startup" data at the top of the dataframe.
|
|
* Some possible problems
|
|
* Columns with NaN values at the end of the dataframe
|
|
* Columns used in `crossed*()` functions with completely different units
|
|
* Comparison with full backtest
|
|
* having 200 buy signals as output for one pair from `analyze_ticker()` does not necessarily mean that 200 trades will be made during backtesting.
|
|
* Assuming you use only one condition such as, `df['rsi'] < 30` as buy condition, this will generate multiple "buy" signals for each pair in sequence (until rsi returns > 29). The bot will only buy on the first of these signals (and also only if a trade-slot ("max_open_trades") is still available), or on one of the middle signals, as soon as a "slot" becomes available.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Report results
|
|
print(f"Generated {df['enter_long'].sum()} entry signals")
|
|
data = df.set_index('date', drop=False)
|
|
data.tail()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Load existing objects into a Jupyter notebook
|
|
|
|
The following cells assume that you have already generated data using the cli.
|
|
They will allow you to drill deeper into your results, and perform analysis which otherwise would make the output very difficult to digest due to information overload.
|
|
|
|
### Load backtest results to pandas dataframe
|
|
|
|
Analyze a trades dataframe (also used below for plotting)
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from freqtrade.data.btanalysis import load_backtest_data, load_backtest_stats
|
|
|
|
# if backtest_dir points to a directory, it'll automatically load the last backtest file.
|
|
backtest_dir = config["user_data_dir"] / "backtest_results"
|
|
# backtest_dir can also point to a specific file
|
|
# backtest_dir = config["user_data_dir"] / "backtest_results/backtest-result-2020-07-01_20-04-22.json"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# You can get the full backtest statistics by using the following command.
|
|
# This contains all information used to generate the backtest result.
|
|
stats = load_backtest_stats(backtest_dir)
|
|
|
|
strategy = 'SampleStrategy'
|
|
# All statistics are available per strategy, so if `--strategy-list` was used during backtest, this will be reflected here as well.
|
|
# Example usages:
|
|
print(stats['strategy'][strategy]['results_per_pair'])
|
|
# Get pairlist used for this backtest
|
|
print(stats['strategy'][strategy]['pairlist'])
|
|
# Get market change (average change of all pairs from start to end of the backtest period)
|
|
print(stats['strategy'][strategy]['market_change'])
|
|
# Maximum drawdown ()
|
|
print(stats['strategy'][strategy]['max_drawdown'])
|
|
# Maximum drawdown start and end
|
|
print(stats['strategy'][strategy]['drawdown_start'])
|
|
print(stats['strategy'][strategy]['drawdown_end'])
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Get strategy comparison (only relevant if multiple strategies were compared)
|
|
print(stats['strategy_comparison'])
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Load backtested trades as dataframe
|
|
trades = load_backtest_data(backtest_dir)
|
|
|
|
# Show value-counts per pair
|
|
trades.groupby("pair")["exit_reason"].value_counts()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Plotting daily profit / equity line
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Plotting equity line (starting with 0 on day 1 and adding daily profit for each backtested day)
|
|
|
|
from freqtrade.configuration import Configuration
|
|
from freqtrade.data.btanalysis import load_backtest_stats
|
|
import plotly.express as px
|
|
import pandas as pd
|
|
|
|
# strategy = 'SampleStrategy'
|
|
# config = Configuration.from_files(["user_data/config.json"])
|
|
# backtest_dir = config["user_data_dir"] / "backtest_results"
|
|
|
|
stats = load_backtest_stats(backtest_dir)
|
|
strategy_stats = stats['strategy'][strategy]
|
|
|
|
df = pd.DataFrame(columns=['dates','equity'], data=strategy_stats['daily_profit'])
|
|
df['equity_daily'] = df['equity'].cumsum()
|
|
|
|
fig = px.line(df, x="dates", y="equity_daily")
|
|
fig.show()
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Load live trading results into a pandas dataframe
|
|
|
|
In case you did already some trading and want to analyze your performance
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from freqtrade.data.btanalysis import load_trades_from_db
|
|
|
|
# Fetch trades from database
|
|
trades = load_trades_from_db("sqlite:///tradesv3.sqlite")
|
|
|
|
# Display results
|
|
trades.groupby("pair")["exit_reason"].value_counts()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Analyze the loaded trades for trade parallelism
|
|
This can be useful to find the best `max_open_trades` parameter, when used with backtesting in conjunction with `--disable-max-market-positions`.
|
|
|
|
`analyze_trade_parallelism()` returns a timeseries dataframe with an "open_trades" column, specifying the number of open trades for each candle.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from freqtrade.data.btanalysis import analyze_trade_parallelism
|
|
|
|
# Analyze the above
|
|
parallel_trades = analyze_trade_parallelism(trades, '5m')
|
|
|
|
parallel_trades.plot()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Plot results
|
|
|
|
Freqtrade offers interactive plotting capabilities based on plotly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from freqtrade.plot.plotting import generate_candlestick_graph
|
|
# Limit graph period to keep plotly quick and reactive
|
|
|
|
# Filter trades to one pair
|
|
trades_red = trades.loc[trades['pair'] == pair]
|
|
|
|
data_red = data['2019-06-01':'2019-06-10']
|
|
# Generate candlestick graph
|
|
graph = generate_candlestick_graph(pair=pair,
|
|
data=data_red,
|
|
trades=trades_red,
|
|
indicators1=['sma20', 'ema50', 'ema55'],
|
|
indicators2=['rsi', 'macd', 'macdsignal', 'macdhist']
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Show graph inline
|
|
# graph.show()
|
|
|
|
# Render graph in a separate window
|
|
graph.show(renderer="browser")
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Plot average profit per trade as distribution graph
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import plotly.figure_factory as ff
|
|
|
|
hist_data = [trades.profit_ratio]
|
|
group_labels = ['profit_ratio'] # name of the dataset
|
|
|
|
fig = ff.create_distplot(hist_data, group_labels, bin_size=0.01)
|
|
fig.show()
|
|
|
|
```
|
