- `Drawdown Start` / `Drawdown End`: Start and end datetime for this largest drawdown (can also be visualized via the `plot-dataframe` sub-command).
- `Market change`: Change of the market during the backtest period. Calculated as average of all pairs changes from the first to the last candle using the "close" column.
### Daily / Weekly / Monthly breakdown
You can get an overview over daily / weekly or monthly results by using the `--breakdown <>` switch.
To visualize daily and weekly breakdowns, you can use the following:
``` bash
freqtrade backtesting --strategy MyAwesomeStrategy --breakdown day month
```
``` output
======================== DAY BREAKDOWN =========================
| Day | Tot Profit USDT | Wins | Draws | Losses |
|------------+-------------------+--------+---------+----------|
| 03/07/2021 | 200.0 | 2 | 0 | 0 |
| 04/07/2021 | -50.31 | 0 | 0 | 2 |
| 05/07/2021 | 220.611 | 3 | 2 | 0 |

| 08/07/2021 | 212.413 | 2 | 0 | 3 |
```
The output will show a table containing the realized absolute Profit (in stake currency) for the given timeperiod, as well as wins, draws and losses that materialized (closed) on this day.
### Further backtest-result analysis
To further analyze your backtest results, you can [export the trades](#exporting-trades-to-file).
