makes, this file may get quite large, so periodically check your `user_data/backtest_results`
folder to delete old exports.
To analyze the buy tags, we need to use the `buy_reasons.py` script from
[froggleston's repo](https://github.com/froggleston/freqtrade-buyreasons). Follow the instructions
in their README to copy the script into your `freqtrade/scripts/` folder.
Before running your next backtest, make sure you either delete your old backtest results or run
backtesting with the `--cache none` option to make sure no cached results are used.
If all goes well, you should now see a `backtest-result-{timestamp}_signals.pkl` file in the
`user_data/backtest_results` folder.
Now run the `buy_reasons.py` script, supplying a few options:
To analyze the entry/exit tags, we now need to use the `freqtrade analysis` command:
``` bash
python3 scripts/buy_reasons.py -c <config.json> -s <strategy_name> -t <timerange> -g0,1,2,3,4
freqtrade analysis -c <config.json> -s <strategy_name> --analysis_groups 0,1,2,3,4

The `--analysis_groups` option is used to specify the various tabular outputs, ranging from the simplest (0)
to the most detailed per pair, per buy and per sell tag (4). More options are available by
running with the `-h` option.

### Outputting signal candle indicators
The real power of the buy_reasons.py script comes from the ability to print out the indicator
The real power of `freqtrade analysis` comes from the ability to print out the indicator
values present on signal candles to allow fine-grained investigation and tuning of buy signal
indicators. To print out a column for a given set of indicators, use the `--indicator-list`
option:
```bash
python3 scripts/buy_reasons.py -c <config.json> -s <strategy_name> -t <timerange> -g0,1,2,3,4 --enter_reason_list "enter_tag_a,enter_tag_b" --exit_reason_list "roi,custom_exit_tag_a,stop_loss" --indicator_list "rsi,rsi_1h,bb_lowerband,ema_9,macd,macdsignal"
