## Freqtrade common issues
### Can freqtrade open multiple positions on the same pair in parallel?
No. Freqtrade will only open one position per pair at a time.
You can however use the [`adjust_trade_position()` callback](strategy-callbacks.md#adjust-trade-position) to adjust an open position.
Backtesting provides an option for this in `--eps` - however this is only there to highlight "hidden" signals, and will not work in live.
