### Debug configuration
To debug freqtrade, we recommend VSCode with the following launch configuration (located in `.vscode/launch.json`).
Details will obviously vary between setups - but this should work to get you started.
``` json
{
"name": "freqtrade trade",
"type": "python",
"request": "launch",
"module": "freqtrade",
"console": "integratedTerminal",
"args": [
"trade",
// Optional:
// "--userdir", "user_data",
"--strategy",
"MyAwesomeStrategy",
]
},
```
Command line arguments can be added in the `"args"` array.
This method can also be used to debug a strategy, by setting the breakpoints within the strategy.
A similar setup can also be taken for Pycharm - using `freqtrade` as module name, and setting the command line arguments as "parameters".
!!! Note "Startup directory"
This assumes that you have the repository checked out, and the editor is started at the repository root level (so setup.py is at the top level of your repository).
## ErrorHandling
Freqtrade Exceptions all inherit from `FreqtradeException`.
