Subject: [PATCH]  Handle if ticker_interval in config.json is not supported on
 exchange.

Returns.

Tested positive and negative data.
The ticker list in constants.py may be obsolete now, im not sure.

 raise OperationalException(f'Invalid ticker {timeframe}, this Exchange supports {timeframes}')
freqtrade.OperationalException: Invalid ticker 14m, this Exchange supports {'1m': '1m', '3m': '3m', '5m': '5m', '15m': '15m', '30m': '30m', '1h': '1h', '2h': '2h', '4h': '4h', '6h': '6h', '8h': '8h', '12h': '12h', '1d': '1d', '3d': '3d', '1w': '1w', '1M': '1M'}
