Multiple configuration files can be specified and used by the bot or the bot can read its configuration parameters from the process standard input stream.
You can specify additional configuration files in `add_config_files`. Files specified in this parameter will be loaded and merged with the initial config file. The files are resolved relative to the initial configuration file.
This is similar to using multiple `--config` parameters, but simpler in usage as you don't have to specify all files for all commands.
!!! Tip "Use multiple configuration files to keep secrets secret"
You can use a 2nd configuration file containing your secrets. That way you can share your "primary" configuration file, while still keeping your API keys for yourself.
``` json title="user_data/config.json"
"add_config_files": [
"config-private.json"
]
```
``` bash
freqtrade trade --config user_data/config.json <...>
```
The 2nd file should only specify what you intend to override.
If a key is in more than one of the configurations, then the "last specified configuration" wins (in the above example, `config-private.json`).
For one-off commands, you can also use the below syntax by specifying multiple "--config" parameters.
``` bash
freqtrade trade --config user_data/config.json --config user_data/config-private.json <...>
```
The 2nd file should only specify what you intend to override.
If a key is in more than one of the configurations, then the "last specified configuration" wins (in the above example, `config-private.json`).
This is equivalent to the example above - but `config-private.json` is specified as cli argument.
