## ErrorHandling
Freqtrade Exceptions all inherit from `FreqtradeException`.
This general class of error should however not be used directly. Instead, multiple specialized sub-Exceptions exist.
Below is an outline of exception inheritance hierarchy:
```

+---+ OperationalException
|
+---+ DependencyException

Edge positioning is not compatible with dynamic (volume-based) whitelist.
!!! Note
Edge does not consider anything else than buy/sell/stoploss signals. So trailing stoploss, ROI, and everything else are ignored in its calculation.
Edge does not consider anything other than *its own* buy/sell/stoploss signals. It ignores the stoploss, trailing stoploss, and ROI settings in the strategy configuration file.
Therefore, it is important to understand that Edge can improve the performance of some trading strategies but *decrease* the performance of others.

Edge combines dynamic stoploss, dynamic positions, and whitelist generation into one isolated module which is then applied to the trading strategy. If enabled in config, Edge will go through historical data with a range of stoplosses in order to find buy and sell/stoploss signals. It then calculates win rate and expectancy over *N* trades for each stoploss. Here is an example:

| APPC/BTC | -0.02 | 0.44 | 2.28 | 1.27 | 0.44 | 25 | 43 |
| NEBL/BTC | -0.03 | 0.63 | 1.29 | 0.58 | 0.44 | 19 | 59 |
Edge produced the above table by comparing `calculate_since_number_of_days` to `minimum_expectancy` to find `min_trade_number` historical information based on the config file. The timerange Edge uses for its comparisons can be further limited by using the `--timerange` switch.
In live and dry-run modes, after the `process_throttle_secs` has passed, Edge will again process `calculate_since_number_of_days` against `minimum_expectancy` to find `min_trade_number`. If no `min_trade_number` is found, the bot will return "whitelist empty". Depending on the trade strategy being deployed, "whitelist empty" may be return much of the time - or *all* of the time. The use of Edge may also cause trading to occur in bursts, though this is rare.
If you encounter "whitelist empty" a lot, condsider tuning `calculate_since_number_of_days`, `minimum_expectancy` and `min_trade_number` to align to the trading frequency of your strategy.
### Update cached pairs with the latest data
Edge requires historic data the same way as backtesting does.

# Freqtrade FAQ
## Beginner Tips & Tricks
* When you work with your strategy & hyperopt file you should use a proper code editor like vscode or Pycharm. A good code editor will provide syntax highlighting as well as line numbers, making it easy to find syntax errors (most likely, pointed out by Freqtrade during startup).

have to run it for 10.000 or more. But it will take an eternity to
compute.
We recommend you to run it at least 10.000 epochs:
Since hyperopt uses Bayesian search, running for too many epochs may not produce greater results.
It's therefore recommended to run between 500-1000 epochs over and over until you hit at least 10.000 epocs in total (or are satisfied with the result). You can best judge by looking at the results - if the bot keeps discovering better strategies, it's best to keep on going.
```bash
freqtrade hyperopt -e 10000
freqtrade hyperopt -e 1000
```
or if you want intermediate result to see
```bash
for i in {1..100}; do freqtrade hyperopt -e 100; done

* The time it takes to run 1000 hyperopt epocs depends on things like: The available cpu, harddisk, ram, timeframe, timerange, indicator settings, indicator count, amount of coins that hyperopt test strategies on and the resulting trade count - which can be 650 trades in a year or 10.0000 trades depending if the strategy aims for big profits by trading rarely or for many low profit trades.
Example: 4% profit 650 times vs 0,3% profit a trade 10.000 times in a year. If we assume you set the --timerange to 365 days.
