|
||||
The easiest way to install and run Freqtrade is to clone the bot Github repository and then run the Easy Installation script, if it's available for your platform.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! Note "Version considerations"
|
||||
When cloning the repository the default working branch has the name `develop`. This branch contains all last features (can be considered as relatively stable, thanks to automated tests). The `stable` branch contains the code of the last release (done usually once per month on an approximately one week old snapshot of the `develop` branch to prevent packaging bugs, so potentially it's more stable).

|
||||
|
||||
!!! Note
|
||||
Python3.7 or higher and the corresponding `pip` are assumed to be available. The install-script will warn you and stop if that's not the case. `git` is also needed to clone the Freqtrade repository.
|
||||
Also, python headers (`python<yourversion>-dev` / `python<yourversion>-devel`) must be available for the installation to complete successfully.
|
||||
|
||||
This can be achieved with the following commands:
|
||||
#### Download Git repository
|
||||
|
||||
Use following command
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Download `develop` branch of freqtrade repository
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade.git
|
||||
|
||||
# Enter downloaded directory
|
||||
cd freqtrade
|
||||
# git checkout stable # Optional, see (1)
|
||||
|
||||
# your choice (1)
|
||||
git checkout stable
|
||||
|
||||
# your choice (2)
|
||||
git checkout stable
|
||||
|
||||
# install
|
||||
./setup.sh --install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
(1) This command switches the cloned repository to the use of the `stable` branch. It's not needed if you wish to stay on the `develop` branch. You may later switch between branches at any time with the `git checkout stable`/`git checkout develop` commands.
