# 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.
2019-11-01 14:02:42 +00:00
## 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 `-`

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).
2020-02-15 04:34:39 +00:00
2019-12-24 14:35:53 +00:00
```

--recursive-strategy-search
Recursively search for a strategy in the strategies
folder.
2019-12-24 14:35:53 +00:00

--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
2022-05-08 13:30:44 +00:00
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.
2020-02-02 15:56:54 +00:00
-d PATH, --datadir PATH
Path to directory with historical backtesting data.

2019-12-24 14:40:49 +00:00
!!! Warning
2020-02-02 15:56:54 +00:00
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.
2019-12-24 14:40:49 +00:00
2021-09-11 15:56:41 +00:00
Example: Search default strategies directories (within the default userdir).
2020-02-02 15:56:54 +00:00
``` bash
freqtrade list-strategies
```
2021-09-11 15:56:41 +00:00
Example: Search strategies directory within the userdir.
2019-12-24 14:35:53 +00:00
``` bash
2019-12-28 05:25:45 +00:00
freqtrade list-strategies --userdir ~/.freqtrade/
2019-12-24 14:35:53 +00:00
```

2019-10-17 14:18:26 +00:00
## List pairs/list markets
The `list-pairs` and `list-markets` subcommands allow to see the pairs/markets available on exchange.
2019-10-20 20:00:17 +00:00
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.
2019-10-21 11:06:46 +00:00
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.
2019-10-17 14:18:26 +00:00
These subcommands have same usage and same set of available options:

Pairs/markets are sorted by its symbol string in the printed output.
### Examples
* Print the list of active pairs with quote currency USD on exchange, specified in the default
configuration file (i.e. pairs on the "Bittrex" exchange) in JSON format:
```
$ freqtrade list-pairs --quote USD --print-json
```
* Print the list of all pairs on the exchange, specified in the `config_binance.json` configuration file

## 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 ](sql_cheatsheet.md#use-a-different-database-system ) 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).
2022-05-11 04:30:40 +00:00
--db-url-from PATH Source db url to use when migrating a database.
2022-05-10 05:01:41 +00:00
```
!!! 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.
2021-07-06 04:46:58 +00:00
## 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]
2021-07-30 19:04:04 +00:00
[--userdir PATH]
2021-07-06 04:46:58 +00:00
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
2021-10-30 08:58:03 +00:00
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.
```
2022-08-18 06:32:15 +00:00
### 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.
2022-10-18 17:28:29 +00:00
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.
2022-08-18 06:32:15 +00:00
Alternatively, you can reconfigure the docker-compose file to have the command updated:
``` yml
command: >
webserver
--config /freqtrade/user_data/config.json
```
2022-10-18 17:28:29 +00:00
You can now use `docker compose up` to start the webserver.
2022-08-18 06:32:15 +00:00
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.
2021-10-30 08:58:03 +00:00
## 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.
```
