Utility Subcommands

Besides the Live-Trade and Dry-Run run modes, the backtesting, edge and hyperopt optimization subcommands, and the download-data subcommand which prepares historical data, the bot contains a number of utility subcommands. They are described in this section.

Create userdir

Creates the directory structure to hold your files for freqtrade. Will also create strategy and hyperopt examples for you to get started. Can be used multiple times - using --reset will reset the sample strategy and hyperopt files to their default state.

usage: freqtrade create-userdir [-h] [--userdir PATH] [--reset]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --userdir PATH, --user-data-dir PATH
                        Path to userdata directory.
  --reset               Reset sample files to their original state.

!!! Warning Using --reset may result in loss of data, since this will overwrite all sample files without asking again.

Create new config

Creates a new configuration file, asking some questions which are important selections for a configuration.

usage: freqtrade new-config [-h] [-c PATH]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -c PATH, --config PATH
                        Specify configuration file (default: `config.json`). Multiple --config options may be used. Can be set to `-`
                        to read config from stdin.

!!! Warning Only vital questions are asked. Freqtrade offers a lot more configuration possibilities, which are listed in the Configuration documentation

Create new strategy

Creates a new strategy from a template similar to SampleStrategy. The file will be named inline with your class name, and will not overwrite existing files.

Results will be located in user_data/strategies/<strategyclassname>.py.

usage: freqtrade new-strategy [-h] [--userdir PATH] [-s NAME]
                              [--template {full,minimal,advanced}]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --userdir PATH, --user-data-dir PATH
                        Path to userdata directory.
  -s NAME, --strategy NAME
                        Specify strategy class name which will be used by the
                        bot.
  --template {full,minimal,advanced}
                        Use a template which is either `minimal`, `full`
                        (containing multiple sample indicators) or `advanced`.
                        Default: `full`.

Sample usage of new-strategy

freqtrade new-strategy --strategy AwesomeStrategy

With custom user directory

freqtrade new-strategy --userdir ~/.freqtrade/ --strategy AwesomeStrategy

Using the advanced template (populates all optional functions and methods)

freqtrade new-strategy --strategy AwesomeStrategy --template advanced

List Strategies

Use the list-strategies subcommand to see all strategies in one particular directory.

This subcommand is useful for finding problems in your environment with loading strategies: modules with strategies that contain errors and failed to load are printed in red (LOAD FAILED), while strategies with duplicate names are printed in yellow (DUPLICATE NAME).

usage: freqtrade list-strategies [-h] [-v] [--logfile FILE] [-V] [-c PATH]
                                 [-d PATH] [--userdir PATH]
                                 [--strategy-path PATH] [-1] [--no-color]
                                 [--recursive-strategy-search]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --strategy-path PATH  Specify additional strategy lookup path.
  -1, --one-column      Print output in one column.
  --no-color            Disable colorization of hyperopt results. May be
                        useful if you are redirecting output to a file.
  --recursive-strategy-search
                        Recursively search for a strategy in the strategies
                        folder.

Common arguments:
  -v, --verbose         Verbose mode (-vv for more, -vvv to get all messages).
  --logfile FILE        Log to the file specified. Special values are:
                        'syslog', 'journald'. See the documentation for more
                        details.
  -V, --version         show program's version number and exit
  -c PATH, --config PATH
                        Specify configuration file (default:
                        `userdir/config.json` or `config.json` whichever
                        exists). Multiple --config options may be used. Can be
                        set to `-` to read config from stdin.
  -d PATH, --datadir PATH
                        Path to directory with historical backtesting data.
  --userdir PATH, --user-data-dir PATH
                        Path to userdata directory.

!!! Warning Using these commands will try to load all python files from a directory. This can be a security risk if untrusted files reside in this directory, since all module-level code is executed.

Example: Search default strategies directories (within the default userdir).

freqtrade list-strategies

Example: Search strategies directory within the userdir.

freqtrade list-strategies --userdir ~/.freqtrade/

Example: Search dedicated strategy path.

freqtrade list-strategies --strategy-path ~/.freqtrade/strategies/

List freqAI models

Use the list-freqaimodels subcommand to see all freqAI models available.

This subcommand is useful for finding problems in your environment with loading freqAI models: modules with models that contain errors and failed to load are printed in red (LOAD FAILED), while models with duplicate names are printed in yellow (DUPLICATE NAME).

usage: freqtrade list-freqaimodels [-h] [-v] [--logfile FILE] [-V] [-c PATH]
                                   [-d PATH] [--userdir PATH]
                                   [--freqaimodel-path PATH] [-1] [--no-color]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --freqaimodel-path PATH
                        Specify additional lookup path for freqaimodels.
  -1, --one-column      Print output in one column.
  --no-color            Disable colorization of hyperopt results. May be
                        useful if you are redirecting output to a file.

Common arguments:
  -v, --verbose         Verbose mode (-vv for more, -vvv to get all messages).
  --logfile FILE        Log to the file specified. Special values are:
                        'syslog', 'journald'. See the documentation for more
                        details.
  -V, --version         show program's version number and exit
  -c PATH, --config PATH
                        Specify configuration file (default:
                        `userdir/config.json` or `config.json` whichever
                        exists). Multiple --config options may be used. Can be
                        set to `-` to read config from stdin.
  -d PATH, --datadir PATH, --data-dir PATH
                        Path to directory with historical backtesting data.
  --userdir PATH, --user-data-dir PATH
                        Path to userdata directory.

List Exchanges

Use the list-exchanges subcommand to see the exchanges available for the bot.

usage: freqtrade list-exchanges [-h] [-1] [-a]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help        show this help message and exit
  -1, --one-column  Print output in one column.
  -a, --all         Print all exchanges known to the ccxt library.

List Timeframes

Use the list-timeframes subcommand to see the list of timeframes available for the exchange.

usage: freqtrade list-timeframes [-h] [-v] [--logfile FILE] [-V] [-c PATH] [-d PATH] [--userdir PATH] [--exchange EXCHANGE] [-1]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --exchange EXCHANGE   Exchange name (default: `bittrex`). Only valid if no config is provided.
  -1, --one-column      Print output in one column.

Common arguments:
  -v, --verbose         Verbose mode (-vv for more, -vvv to get all messages).
  --logfile FILE        Log to the file specified. Special values are: 'syslog', 'journald'. See the documentation for more details.
  -V, --version         show program's version number and exit
  -c PATH, --config PATH
                        Specify configuration file (default: `config.json`). Multiple --config options may be used. Can be set to `-`
                        to read config from stdin.
  -d PATH, --datadir PATH
                        Path to directory with historical backtesting data.
  --userdir PATH, --user-data-dir PATH
                        Path to userdata directory.

  • Example: see the timeframes for the 'binance' exchange, set in the configuration file:
$ freqtrade list-timeframes -c config_binance.json
...
Timeframes available for the exchange `binance`: 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 12h, 1d, 3d, 1w, 1M
  • Example: enumerate exchanges available for Freqtrade and print timeframes supported by each of them:
$ for i in `freqtrade list-exchanges -1`; do freqtrade list-timeframes --exchange $i; done

List pairs/list markets

The list-pairs and list-markets subcommands allow to see the pairs/markets available on exchange.

Pairs are markets with the '/' character between the base currency part and the quote currency part in the market symbol. For example, in the 'ETH/BTC' pair 'ETH' is the base currency, while 'BTC' is the quote currency.

For pairs traded by Freqtrade the pair quote currency is defined by the value of the stake_currency configuration setting.

You can print info about any pair/market with these subcommands - and you can filter output by quote-currency using --quote BTC, or by base-currency using --base ETH options correspondingly.

These subcommands have same usage and same set of available options:

Convert database

freqtrade convert-db can be used to convert your database from one system to another (sqlite -> postgres, postgres -> other postgres), migrating all trades, orders and Pairlocks.

Please refer to the SQL cheatsheet to learn about requirements for different database systems.

usage: freqtrade convert-db [-h] [--db-url PATH] [--db-url-from PATH]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help          show this help message and exit
  --db-url PATH       Override trades database URL, this is useful in custom
                      deployments (default: `sqlite:///tradesv3.sqlite` for
                      Live Run mode, `sqlite:///tradesv3.dryrun.sqlite` for
                      Dry Run).
  --db-url-from PATH  Source db url to use when migrating a database.

!!! Warning Please ensure to only use this on an empty target database. Freqtrade will perform a regular migration, but may fail if entries already existed.

Webserver mode

!!! Warning "Experimental" Webserver mode is an experimental mode to increase backesting and strategy development productivity. There may still be bugs - so if you happen to stumble across these, please report them as github issues, thanks.

Run freqtrade in webserver mode. Freqtrade will start the webserver and allow FreqUI to start and control backtesting processes. This has the advantage that data will not be reloaded between backtesting runs (as long as timeframe and timerange remain identical). FreqUI will also show the backtesting results.

usage: freqtrade webserver [-h] [-v] [--logfile FILE] [-V] [-c PATH] [-d PATH]
                           [--userdir PATH]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

Common arguments:
  -v, --verbose         Verbose mode (-vv for more, -vvv to get all messages).
  --logfile FILE        Log to the file specified. Special values are:
                        'syslog', 'journald'. See the documentation for more
                        details.
  -V, --version         show program's version number and exit
  -c PATH, --config PATH
                        Specify configuration file (default:
                        `userdir/config.json` or `config.json` whichever
                        exists). Multiple --config options may be used. Can be
                        set to `-` to read config from stdin.
  -d PATH, --datadir PATH
                        Path to directory with historical backtesting data.
  --userdir PATH, --user-data-dir PATH
                        Path to userdata directory.

Webserver mode - docker

You can also use webserver mode via docker. Starting a one-off container requires the configuration of the port explicitly, as ports are not exposed by default. You can use docker compose run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 freqtrade webserver to start a one-off container that'll be removed once you stop it. This assumes that port 8080 is still available and no other bot is running on that port.

Alternatively, you can reconfigure the docker-compose file to have the command updated:

    command: >
      webserver
      --config /freqtrade/user_data/config.json      

You can now use docker compose up to start the webserver. This assumes that the configuration has a webserver enabled and configured for docker (listening port = 0.0.0.0).

!!! Tip Don't forget to reset the command back to the trade command if you want to start a live or dry-run bot.

Show previous Backtest results

Allows you to show previous backtest results. Adding --show-pair-list outputs a sorted pair list you can easily copy/paste into your configuration (omitting bad pairs).

??? Warning "Strategy overfitting" Only using winning pairs can lead to an overfitted strategy, which will not work well on future data. Make sure to extensively test your strategy in dry-run before risking real money.

usage: freqtrade backtesting-show [-h] [-v] [--logfile FILE] [-V] [-c PATH]

Examples

Print details for the epoch 168 (the number of the epoch is shown by the hyperopt-list subcommand or by Hyperopt itself during hyperoptimization run):

freqtrade hyperopt-show -n 168

Prints JSON data with details for the last best epoch (i.e., the best of all epochs):

freqtrade hyperopt-show --best -n -1 --print-json --no-header
