<h1 id="plotting">Plotting<a class="headerlink" href="#plotting" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h1>
<p>This page explains how to plot prices, indicators and profits.</p>
<h2 id="installation-setup">Installation / Setup<a class="headerlink" href="#installation-setup" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2>
<p>Plotting modules use the Plotly library. You can install / upgrade this by running the following command:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>pip<span class="w"> </span>install<span class="w"> </span>-U<span class="w"> </span>-r<span class="w"> </span>requirements-plot.txt
</code></pre></div>
<h2 id="plot-price-and-indicators">Plot price and indicators<a class="headerlink" href="#plot-price-and-indicators" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2>
<p>The <code>freqtrade plot-dataframe</code> subcommand shows an interactive graph with three subplots:</p>
<ul>
<li>Main plot with candlestics and indicators following price (sma/ema)</li>
<li>Volume bars</li>
<li>Additional indicators as specified by <code>--indicators2</code></li>
</ul>
<p><img alt="plot-dataframe" src="../assets/plot-dataframe.png" /></p>
<p>Possible arguments:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>usage: freqtrade plot-dataframe [-h] [-v] [--logfile FILE] [-V] [-c PATH]
[-d PATH] [--userdir PATH] [-s NAME]
[--strategy-path PATH] [-p PAIRS [PAIRS ...]]
[--indicators1 INDICATORS1 [INDICATORS1 ...]]
[--indicators2 INDICATORS2 [INDICATORS2 ...]]
[--plot-limit INT] [--db-url PATH]
[--trade-source {DB,file}] [--export EXPORT]
[--export-filename PATH]
[--timerange TIMERANGE] [-i TICKER_INTERVAL]
[--no-trades]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-p PAIRS [PAIRS ...], --pairs PAIRS [PAIRS ...]
Show profits for only these pairs. Pairs are space-
separated.
--indicators1 INDICATORS1 [INDICATORS1 ...]
Set indicators from your strategy you want in the
first row of the graph. Space-separated list. Example:
`ema3 ema5`. Default: `[&#39;sma&#39;, &#39;ema3&#39;, &#39;ema5&#39;]`.
--indicators2 INDICATORS2 [INDICATORS2 ...]
Set indicators from your strategy you want in the
third row of the graph. Space-separated list. Example:
`fastd fastk`. Default: `[&#39;macd&#39;, &#39;macdsignal&#39;]`.
--plot-limit INT Specify tick limit for plotting. Notice: too high
values cause huge files. Default: 750.
--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).
--trade-source {DB,file}
Specify the source for trades (Can be DB or file
(backtest file)) Default: file
--export EXPORT Export backtest results, argument are: trades.
Example: `--export=trades`
--export-filename PATH
Save backtest results to the file with this filename.
Requires `--export` to be set as well. Example:
`--export-filename=user_data/backtest_results/backtest
_today.json`
--timerange TIMERANGE
Specify what timerange of data to use.
-i TICKER_INTERVAL, --ticker-interval TICKER_INTERVAL
Specify ticker interval (`1m`, `5m`, `30m`, `1h`,
`1d`).
--no-trades Skip using trades from backtesting file and DB.
Common arguments:
-v, --verbose Verbose mode (-vv for more, -vvv to get all messages).
--logfile FILE Log to the file specified. Special values are:
&#39;syslog&#39;, &#39;journald&#39;. See the documentation for more
details.
-V, --version show program&#39;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.
Strategy arguments:
-s NAME, --strategy NAME
Specify strategy class name which will be used by the
bot.
--strategy-path PATH Specify additional strategy lookup path.

<p>The <code>-p/--pairs</code> argument can be used to specify pairs you would like to plot.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>The <code>freqtrade plot-dataframe</code> subcommand generates one plot-file per pair.</p>

<p>Specify custom indicators.
Use <code>--indicators1</code> for the main plot and <code>--indicators2</code> for the subplot below (if values are in a different range than prices).</p>
<div class="admonition tip">
<p class="admonition-title">Tip</p>
<p>You will almost certainly want to specify a custom strategy! This can be done by adding <code>-s Classname</code> / <code>--strategy ClassName</code> to the command.</p>

<p>The <code>plot-dataframe</code> subcommand requires backtesting data, a strategy and either a backtesting-results file or a database, containing trades corresponding to the strategy.</p>
<p>The resulting plot will have the following elements:</p>
<ul>
<li>Green triangles: Buy signals from the strategy. (Note: not every buy signal generates a trade, compare to cyan circles.)</li>
<li>Red triangles: Sell signals from the strategy. (Also, not every sell signal terminates a trade, compare to red and green squares.)</li>
<li>Cyan circles: Trade entry points.</li>
<li>Red squares: Trade exit points for trades with loss or 0% profit.</li>
<li>Green squares: Trade exit points for profitable trades.</li>
<li>Indicators with values corresponding to the candle scale (e.g. SMA/EMA), as specified with <code>--indicators1</code>.</li>
<li>Volume (bar chart at the bottom of the main chart).</li>
<li>Indicators with values in different scales (e.g. MACD, RSI) below the volume bars, as specified with <code>--indicators2</code>.</li>
</ul>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Bollinger Bands</p>
<p>Bollinger bands are automatically added to the plot if the columns <code>bb_lowerband</code> and <code>bb_upperband</code> exist, and are painted as a light blue area spanning from the lower band to the upper band.</p>
</div>
<h4 id="advanced-plot-configuration">Advanced plot configuration<a class="headerlink" href="#advanced-plot-configuration" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h4>
<p>An advanced plot configuration can be specified in the strategy in the <code>plot_config</code> parameter.</p>
<p>Additional features when using plot_config include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Specify colors per indicator</li>
<li>Specify additional subplots</li>
</ul>
<p>The sample plot configuration below specifies fixed colors for the indicators. Otherwise consecutive plots may produce different colorschemes each time, making comparisons difficult.
It also allows multiple subplots to display both MACD and RSI at the same time.</p>
<p>Sample configuration with inline comments explaining the process:</p>

<p><img alt="plot-profit" src="../assets/plot-profit.png" /></p>
<p>The <code>plot-profit</code> subcommand shows an interactive graph with three plots:</p>
<ul>
<li>Average closing price for all pairs.</li>
<li>The summarized profit made by backtesting.
Note that this is not the real-world profit, but more of an estimate.</li>
<li>Profit for each individual pair.</li>
</ul>
<p>The first graph is good to get a grip of how the overall market progresses.</p>
<p>The second graph will show if your algorithm works or doesn't.
Perhaps you want an algorithm that steadily makes small profits, or one that acts less often, but makes big swings.
This graph will also highlight the start (and end) of the Max drawdown period.</p>
<p>The third graph can be useful to spot outliers, events in pairs that cause profit spikes.</p>
<p>Possible options for the <code>freqtrade plot-profit</code> subcommand:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>usage: freqtrade plot-profit [-h] [-v] [--logfile FILE] [-V] [-c PATH]
[-d PATH] [--userdir PATH] [-p PAIRS [PAIRS ...]]
[--timerange TIMERANGE] [--export EXPORT]
