| `stake_currency` | BTC | Yes | Crypto-currency used for trading.
| `stake_amount` | 0.05 | Yes | Amount of crypto-currency your bot will use for each trade. Per default, the bot will use (0.05 BTC x 3) = 0.15 BTC in total will be always engaged. Set it to `"unlimited"` to allow the bot to use all avaliable balance.
| `ticker_interval` | [1m, 5m, 30m, 1h, 1d] | No | The ticker interval to use (1min, 5 min, 30 min, 1 hour or 1 day). Default is 5 minutes

| `process_only_new_candles` | false | No | If set to true indicators are processed only once a new candle arrives. If false each loop populates the indicators, this will mean the same candle is processed many times creating system load but can be useful of your strategy depends on tick data not only candle. Can be set either in Configuration or in the strategy.

### Parameters in strategy
The following parameters can be set in either configuration or strategy.
Values in the configuration are always overwriting values set in the strategy.
* `minimal_roi`
* `ticker_interval`
* `stoploss`
* `trailing_stop`
* `trailing_stop_positive`
* `trailing_stop_positive_offset`
* `process_only_new_candles`
* `order_types`
* `order_time_in_force`
* `use_sell_signal` (experimental)
* `sell_profit_only` (experimental)
* `ignore_roi_if_buy_signal` (experimental)
### Understand stake_amount
`stake_amount` is an amount of crypto-currency your bot will use for each trade.
The minimal value is 0.0005. If there is not enough crypto-currency in
the account an exception is generated.
To allow the bot to trade all the avaliable `stake_currency` in your account set<br/>
To allow the bot to trade all the available `stake_currency` in your account set
```json
"stake_amount" : "unlimited",
```
In this case a trade amount is calclulated as: <br/>
In this case a trade amount is calclulated as:
```python
currency_balanse / (max_open_trades - current_open_trades)
```
