<p>To download data (candles / OHLCV) needed for backtesting and hyperoptimization use the <code>freqtrade download-data</code> command.</p>
<p>If no additional parameter is specified, freqtrade will download data for <code>"1m"</code> and <code>"5m"</code> timeframes for the last 30 days.
Exchange and pairs will come from <code>config.json</code> (if specified using <code>-c/--config</code>).
Otherwise <code>--exchange</code> becomes mandatory.</p>
<p>You can use a relative timerange (<code>--days 20</code>) or an absolute starting point (<code>--timerange 20200101-</code>). For incremental downloads, the relative approach should be used.</p>
<div class="admonition tip">
<p class="admonition-title">Tip: Updating existing data</p>
<p>If you already have backtesting data available in your data-directory and would like to refresh this data up to today, freqtrade will automatically calculate the data missing for the existing pairs and the download will occur from the latest available point until "now", neither --days or --timerange parameters are required. Freqtrade will keep the available data and only download the missing data.
If you are updating existing data after inserting new pairs that you have no data for, use <code>--new-pairs-days xx</code> parameter. Specified number of days will be downloaded for new pairs while old pairs will be updated with missing data only.
If you use <code>--days xx</code> parameter alone - data for specified number of days will be downloaded for <em>all</em> pairs. Be careful, if specified number of days is smaller than gap between now and last downloaded candle - freqtrade will delete all existing data to avoid gaps in candle data.</p>

<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Startup period</p>
<p><code>download-data</code> is a strategy-independent command. The idea is to download a big chunk of data once, and then iteratively increase the amount of data stored.</p>
<p>For that reason, <code>download-data</code> does not care about the "startup-period" defined in a strategy. It's up to the user to download additional days if the backtest should start at a specific point in time (while respecting startup period).</p>
</div>
<h3 id="pairs-file">Pairs file<a class="headerlink" href="#pairs-file" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
<p>In alternative to the whitelist from <code>config.json</code>, a <code>pairs.json</code> file can be used.
If you are using Binance for example:</p>
<ul>
<li>create a directory <code>user_data/data/binance</code> and copy or create the <code>pairs.json</code> file in that directory.</li>
<li>update the <code>pairs.json</code> file to contain the currency pairs you are interested in.</li>
</ul>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>mkdir<span class="w"> </span>-p<span class="w"> </span>user_data/data/binance
touch<span class="w"> </span>user_data/data/binance/pairs.json
</code></pre></div>
<p>The format of the <code>pairs.json</code> file is a simple json list.
Mixing different stake-currencies is allowed for this file, since it's only used for downloading.</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code><span class="p">[</span>

<div class="admonition tip">
<p class="admonition-title">Downloading all data for one quote currency</p>
<p>Often, you'll want to download data for all pairs of a specific quote-currency. In such cases, you can use the following shorthand:
<code>freqtrade download-data --exchange binance --pairs .*/USDT &lt;...&gt;</code>. The provided "pairs" string will be expanded to contain all active pairs on the exchange.
To also download data for inactive (delisted) pairs, add <code>--include-inactive-pairs</code> to the command.</p>

<ul>
<li>To use a different directory than the exchange specific default, use <code>--datadir user_data/data/some_directory</code>.</li>
<li>To change the exchange used to download the historical data from, please use a different configuration file (you'll probably need to adjust rate limits etc.)</li>
<li>To use <code>pairs.json</code> from some other directory, use <code>--pairs-file some_other_dir/pairs.json</code>.</li>
<li>To download historical candle (OHLCV) data for only 10 days, use <code>--days 10</code> (defaults to 30 days).</li>
<li>To download historical candle (OHLCV) data from a fixed starting point, use <code>--timerange 20200101-</code> - which will download all data from January 1<sup>st</sup>, 2020.</li>
<li>Use <code>--timeframes</code> to specify what timeframe download the historical candle (OHLCV) data for. Default is <code>--timeframes 1m 5m</code> which will download 1-minute and 5-minute data.</li>
<li>To use exchange, timeframe and list of pairs as defined in your configuration file, use the <code>-c/--config</code> option. With this, the script uses the whitelist defined in the config as the list of currency pairs to download data for and does not require the pairs.json file. You can combine <code>-c/--config</code> with most other options.</li>

<p>Assuming you downloaded all data from 2022 (<code>--timerange 20220101-</code>) - but you'd now like to also backtest with earlier data.
You can do so by using the <code>--prepend</code> flag, combined with <code>--timerange</code> - specifying an end-date.</p>

</div>
<h3 id="data-format">Data format<a class="headerlink" href="#data-format" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
<p>Freqtrade currently supports the following data-formats:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>json</code> - plain "text" json files</li>
<li><code>jsongz</code> - a gzip-zipped version of json files</li>
<li><code>hdf5</code> - a high performance datastore</li>
<li><code>feather</code> - a dataformat based on Apache Arrow (OHLCV only)</li>
<li><code>parquet</code> - columnar datastore (OHLCV only)</li>
</ul>
<p>By default, OHLCV data is stored as <code>json</code> data, while trades data is stored as <code>jsongz</code> data.</p>
<p>This can be changed via the <code>--data-format-ohlcv</code> and <code>--data-format-trades</code> command line arguments respectively.
To persist this change, you should also add the following snippet to your configuration, so you don't have to insert the above arguments each time:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code> // ...
&quot;dataformat_ohlcv&quot;: &quot;hdf5&quot;,
&quot;dataformat_trades&quot;: &quot;hdf5&quot;,
// ...
</code></pre></div>
<p>If the default data-format has been changed during download, then the keys <code>dataformat_ohlcv</code> and <code>dataformat_trades</code> in the configuration file need to be adjusted to the selected dataformat as well.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>You can convert between data-formats using the <a href="#sub-command-convert-data">convert-data</a> and <a href="#sub-command-convert-trade-data">convert-trade-data</a> methods.</p>

<p>By default, <code>download-data</code> sub-command downloads Candles (OHLCV) data. Some exchanges also provide historic trade-data via their API.
This data can be useful if you need many different timeframes, since it is only downloaded once, and then resampled locally to the desired timeframes.</p>
<p>Since this data is large by default, the files use gzip by default. They are stored in your data-directory with the naming convention of <code>&lt;pair&gt;-trades.json.gz</code> (<code>ETH_BTC-trades.json.gz</code>). Incremental mode is also supported, as for historic OHLCV data, so downloading the data once per week with <code>--days 8</code> will create an incremental data-repository.</p>
<p>To use this mode, simply add <code>--dl-trades</code> to your call. This will swap the download method to download trades, and resamples the data locally.</p>
<div class="admonition warning">
<p class="admonition-title">do not use</p>
<p>You should not use this unless you're a kraken user. Most other exchanges provide OHLCV data with sufficient history.</p>
</div>
<p>Example call:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>freqtrade<span class="w"> </span>download-data<span class="w"> </span>--exchange<span class="w"> </span>kraken<span class="w"> </span>--pairs<span class="w"> </span>XRP/EUR<span class="w"> </span>ETH/EUR<span class="w"> </span>--days<span class="w"> </span><span class="m">20</span><span class="w"> </span>--dl-trades
</code></pre></div>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>While this method uses async calls, it will be slow, since it requires the result of the previous call to generate the next request to the exchange.</p>
</div>
<div class="admonition warning">
<p class="admonition-title">Warning</p>
<p>The historic trades are not available during Freqtrade dry-run and live trade modes because all exchanges tested provide this data with a delay of few 100 candles, so it's not suitable for real-time trading.</p>
