The 2nd table contains a recap of sell reasons. +This table can tell you which area needs some additional work (i.e. all `sell_signal` trades are losses, so we should disable the sell-signal or work on improving that). The 3rd table contains all trades the bot had to `forcesell` at the end of the backtest period to present a full picture. This is necessary to simulate realistic behaviour, since the backtest period has to end at some point, while realistically, you could leave the bot running forever.
