<h1 id="orderflow-data">Orderflow data<a class="headerlink" href="#orderflow-data" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h1>
<p>This guide walks you through utilizing public trade data for advanced orderflow analysis in Freqtrade.</p>
<div class="admonition warning">
<p class="admonition-title">Experimental Feature</p>
<p>The orderflow feature is currently in beta and may be subject to changes in future releases. Please report any issues or feedback on the <a href="https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade/issues">Freqtrade GitHub repository</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="admonition warning">
<p class="admonition-title">Performance</p>
<p>Orderflow requires raw trades data. This data is rather large, and can cause a slow initial startup, when freqtrade needs to download the trades data for the last X candles. Additionally, enabling this feature will cause increased memory usage. Please ensure to have sufficient resources available.</p>

<li><code>cache_size</code>: How many previous orderflow candles are saved into cache instead of calculated every new candle</li>
<li><code>max_candles</code>: Filter how many candles would you like to get trades data for.</li>
<li><code>scale</code>: This controls the price bin size for the footprint chart.</li>
<li><code>stacked_imbalance_range</code>: Defines the minimum consecutive imbalanced price levels required for consideration.</li>
<li><code>imbalance_volume</code>: Filters out imbalances with volume below this threshold.</li>

<p>Each individual entry contains a dict with the following keys:</p>
<ul>

<li><code>date</code>: Date of the trade.</li>
<li><code>price</code>: Price of the trade.</li>
<li><code>amount</code>: Volume of the trade.</li>
