This class should be in its own file within the `user_data/hyperopts/` directory.
Currently, the following loss functions are builtin: `DefaultHyperOptLoss` (default legacy Freqtrade hyperoptimization loss function), `SharpeHyperOptLoss` (optimizes Sharpe Ratio calculated on the trade returns) and `OnlyProfitHyperOptLoss` (which takes only amount of profit into consideration).
