+
+### Overriding Base estimator
+
+You can define your own estimator for Hyperopt by implementing `generate_estimator()` in the Hyperopt subclass.
+
+```python
+class MyAwesomeStrategy(IStrategy):
+    class HyperOpt:
+        def generate_estimator():
+            return "RF"
+
+```
+
+Possible values are either one of "GP", "RF", "ET", "GBRT" (Details can be found in the [scikit-optimize documentation](https://scikit-optimize.github.io/)), or "an instance of a class that inherits from `RegressorMixin` (from sklearn) and where the `predict` method has an optional `return_std` argument, which returns `std(Y | x)` along with `E[Y | x]`".
+
+Some research will be necessary to find additional Regressors.
+
+Example for `ExtraTreesRegressor` ("ET") with additional parameters:
+
+```python
+class MyAwesomeStrategy(IStrategy):
+    class HyperOpt:
+        def generate_estimator():
+            from skopt.learning import ExtraTreesRegressor
+            # Corresponds to "ET" - but allows additional parameters.
+            return ExtraTreesRegressor(n_estimators=100)
+
+```
+
+!!! Note
+    While custom estimators can be provided, it's up to you as User to do research on possible parameters and analyze / understand which ones should be used.
+    If you're unsure about this, best use one of the Defaults (`"ET"` has proven to be the most versatile) without further parameters.

-## Legacy Hyperopt
-
-This Section explains the configuration of an explicit Hyperopt file (separate to the strategy).
-
-!!! Warning "Deprecated / legacy mode"
-    Since the 2021.4 release you no longer have to write a separate hyperopt class, but all strategies can be hyperopted.
-    Please read the [main hyperopt page](hyperopt.md) for more details.
-
-### Prepare hyperopt file
-
-Configuring an explicit hyperopt file is similar to writing your own strategy, and many tasks will be similar.
-
-!!! Tip "About this page"
-    For this page, we will be using a fictional strategy called `AwesomeStrategy` - which will be optimized using the `AwesomeHyperopt` class.
-
-#### Create a Custom Hyperopt File
-
-The simplest way to get started is to use the following command, which will create a new hyperopt file from a template, which will be located under `user_data/hyperopts/AwesomeHyperopt.py`.
-
-Let assume you want a hyperopt file `AwesomeHyperopt.py`:
-
-``` bash
-freqtrade new-hyperopt --hyperopt AwesomeHyperopt
-```
-
-#### Legacy Hyperopt checklist
-
-Checklist on all tasks / possibilities in hyperopt
-
-Depending on the space you want to optimize, only some of the below are required:
-
-* fill `buy_strategy_generator` - for buy signal optimization
-* fill `indicator_space` - for buy signal optimization
-* fill `sell_strategy_generator` - for sell signal optimization
-* fill `sell_indicator_space` - for sell signal optimization
-
-!!! Note
-    `populate_indicators` needs to create all indicators any of thee spaces may use, otherwise hyperopt will not work.
-
-Optional in hyperopt - can also be loaded from a strategy (recommended):
-
-* `populate_indicators` - fallback to create indicators
-* `populate_buy_trend` - fallback if not optimizing for buy space. should come from strategy
-* `populate_sell_trend` - fallback if not optimizing for sell space. should come from strategy
-
-!!! Note
-    You always have to provide a strategy to Hyperopt, even if your custom Hyperopt class contains all methods.
-    Assuming the optional methods are not in your hyperopt file, please use `--strategy AweSomeStrategy` which contains these methods so hyperopt can use these methods instead.
-
-Rarely you may also need to override:
-
-* `roi_space` - for custom ROI optimization (if you need the ranges for the ROI parameters in the optimization hyperspace that differ from default)
-* `generate_roi_table` - for custom ROI optimization (if you need the ranges for the values in the ROI table that differ from default or the number of entries (steps) in the ROI table which differs from the default 4 steps)
-* `stoploss_space` - for custom stoploss optimization (if you need the range for the stoploss parameter in the optimization hyperspace that differs from default)
-* `trailing_space` - for custom trailing stop optimization (if you need the ranges for the trailing stop parameters in the optimization hyperspace that differ from default)
-
-#### Defining a buy signal optimization
-
-Let's say you are curious: should you use MACD crossings or lower Bollinger
-Bands to trigger your buys. And you also wonder should you use RSI or ADX to
-help with those buy decisions. If you decide to use RSI or ADX, which values
-should I use for them? So let's use hyperparameter optimization to solve this
-mystery.
-
-We will start by defining a search space:
-
-```python
-    def indicator_space() -> List[Dimension]:
-        """
-        Define your Hyperopt space for searching strategy parameters
-        """
-        return [
-            Integer(20, 40, name='adx-value'),
-            Integer(20, 40, name='rsi-value'),
-            Categorical([True, False], name='adx-enabled'),
-            Categorical([True, False], name='rsi-enabled'),
-            Categorical(['bb_lower', 'macd_cross_signal'], name='trigger')
-        ]
-```
-
-Above definition says: I have five parameters I want you to randomly combine
-to find the best combination. Two of them are integer values (`adx-value` and `rsi-value`) and I want you test in the range of values 20 to 40.  
-Then we have three category variables. First two are either `True` or `False`.
-We use these to either enable or disable the ADX and RSI guards.
-The last one we call `trigger` and use it to decide which buy trigger we want to use.
-
-So let's write the buy strategy generator using these values:
-
-```python
-    @staticmethod
-    def buy_strategy_generator(params: Dict[str, Any]) -> Callable:
-        """
-        Define the buy strategy parameters to be used by Hyperopt.
-        """
-        def populate_buy_trend(dataframe: DataFrame, metadata: dict) -> DataFrame:
-            conditions = []
-            # GUARDS AND TRENDS
-            if 'adx-enabled' in params and params['adx-enabled']:
-                conditions.append(dataframe['adx'] > params['adx-value'])
-            if 'rsi-enabled' in params and params['rsi-enabled']:
-                conditions.append(dataframe['rsi'] < params['rsi-value'])
-

-

-```
-
-Hyperopt will now call `populate_buy_trend()` many times (`epochs`) with different value combinations.  
-It will use the given historical data and make buys based on the buy signals generated with the above function.  
-Based on the results, hyperopt will tell you which parameter combination produced the best results (based on the configured [loss function](#loss-functions)).
-
-!!! Note
-    The above setup expects to find ADX, RSI and Bollinger Bands in the populated indicators.
-    When you want to test an indicator that isn't used by the bot currently, remember to
-    add it to the `populate_indicators()` method in your strategy or hyperopt file.
-
-#### Sell optimization
-
-Similar to the buy-signal above, sell-signals can also be optimized.
-Place the corresponding settings into the following methods
-
-* Inside `sell_indicator_space()` - the parameters hyperopt shall be optimizing.
-* Within `sell_strategy_generator()` - populate the nested method `populate_sell_trend()` to apply the parameters.
-
-The configuration and rules are the same than for buy signals.
-To avoid naming collisions in the search-space, please prefix all sell-spaces with `sell-`.
-
-### Execute Hyperopt
-
-Once you have updated your hyperopt configuration you can run it.
-Because hyperopt tries a lot of combinations to find the best parameters it will take time to get a good result. More time usually results in better results.
-
-We strongly recommend to use `screen` or `tmux` to prevent any connection loss.
-
-```bash
-freqtrade hyperopt --config config.json --hyperopt <hyperoptname> --hyperopt-loss <hyperoptlossname> --strategy <strategyname> -e 500 --spaces all
-```
-
-Use `<hyperoptname>` as the name of the custom hyperopt used.
-
-The `-e` option will set how many evaluations hyperopt will do. Since hyperopt uses Bayesian search, running too many epochs at once may not produce greater results. Experience has shown that best results are usually not improving much after 500-1000 epochs.  
-Doing multiple runs (executions) with a few 1000 epochs and different random state will most likely produce different results.
-
-The `--spaces all` option determines that all possible parameters should be optimized. Possibilities are listed below.
-
-!!! Note
-    Hyperopt will store hyperopt results with the timestamp of the hyperopt start time.
-    Reading commands (`hyperopt-list`, `hyperopt-show`) can use `--hyperopt-filename <filename>` to read and display older hyperopt results.
-    You can find a list of filenames with `ls -l user_data/hyperopt_results/`.
-
-#### Running Hyperopt using methods from a strategy
-
-Hyperopt can reuse `populate_indicators`, `populate_buy_trend`, `populate_sell_trend` from your strategy, assuming these methods are **not** in your custom hyperopt file, and a strategy is provided.
-
-```bash
-freqtrade hyperopt --hyperopt AwesomeHyperopt --hyperopt-loss SharpeHyperOptLossDaily --strategy AwesomeStrategy
-```
-
-### Understand the Hyperopt Result
-
-Once Hyperopt is completed you can use the result to create a new strategy.
-Given the following result from hyperopt:
-
-```
-Best result:
-
-    44/100:    135 trades. Avg profit  0.57%. Total profit  0.03871918 BTC (0.7722%). Avg duration 180.4 mins. Objective: 1.94367
-
-Buy hyperspace params:
-{    'adx-value': 44,
-     'rsi-value': 29,
-     'adx-enabled': False,
-     'rsi-enabled': True,
-     'trigger': 'bb_lower'}
-```
-
-You should understand this result like:
-
-* The buy trigger that worked best was `bb_lower`.
-* You should not use ADX because `adx-enabled: False`)
-* You should **consider** using the RSI indicator (`rsi-enabled: True` and the best value is `29.0` (`rsi-value: 29.0`)
-
-You have to look inside your strategy file into `buy_strategy_generator()`
-method, what those values match to.
-
-So for example you had `rsi-value: 29.0` so we would look at `rsi`-block, that translates to the following code block:
-
-```python
-(dataframe['rsi'] < 29.0)
-```
-
-Translating your whole hyperopt result as the new buy-signal would then look like:
-
-```python
-def populate_buy_trend(self, dataframe: DataFrame) -> DataFrame:
-    dataframe.loc[
-        (
-            (dataframe['rsi'] < 29.0) &  # rsi-value
-            dataframe['close'] < dataframe['bb_lowerband']  # trigger
-        ),
-        'buy'] = 1
-    return dataframe
-```
-
-### Validate backtesting results
-
-Once the optimized parameters and conditions have been implemented into your strategy, you should backtest the strategy to make sure everything is working as expected.
-
-To achieve same results (number of trades, their durations, profit, etc.) than during Hyperopt, please use same configuration and parameters (timerange, timeframe, ...) used for hyperopt `--dmmp`/`--disable-max-market-positions` and `--eps`/`--enable-position-stacking` for Backtesting.
-
-Should results don't match, please double-check to make sure you transferred all conditions correctly.
-Pay special care to the stoploss (and trailing stoploss) parameters, as these are often set in configuration files, which override changes to the strategy.
-You should also carefully review the log of your backtest to ensure that there were no parameters inadvertently set by the configuration (like `stoploss` or `trailing_stop`).
-
-### Sharing methods with your strategy
-
-Hyperopt classes provide access to the Strategy via the `strategy` class attribute.
-This can be a great way to reduce code duplication if used correctly, but will also complicate usage for inexperienced users.

-To further analyze your backtest results, you can [export the trades](#exporting-trades-to-file).
-You can then load the trades to perform further analysis as shown in our [data analysis](data-analysis.md#backtesting) backtesting section.
+One big limitation of backtesting is it's inability to know how prices moved intra-candle (was high before close, or viceversa?).
+So assuming you run backtesting with a 1h timeframe, there will be 4 prices for that candle (Open, High, Low, Close).
+
+While backtesting does take some assumptions (read above) about this - this can never be perfect, and will always be biased in one way or the other.
+To mitigate this, freqtrade can use a lower (faster) timeframe to simulate intra-candle movements.
+
+To utilize this, you can append `--timeframe-detail 5m` to your regular backtesting command.
+
+``` bash
+freqtrade backtesting --strategy AwesomeStrategy --timeframe 1h --timeframe-detail 5m
+```
+
+This will load 1h data as well as 5m data for the timeframe. The strategy will be analyzed with the 1h timeframe - and for every "open trade candle" (candles where a trade is open) the 5m data will be used to simulate intra-candle movements.
+All callback functions (`custom_sell()`, `custom_stoploss()`, ... ) will be running for each 5m candle once the trade is opened (so 12 times in the above example of 1h timeframe, and 5m detailed timeframe).
+
+`--timeframe-detail` must be smaller than the original timeframe, otherwise backtesting will fail to start.
+
+Obviously this will require more memory (5m data is bigger than 1h data), and will also impact runtime (depending on the amount of trades and trade durations).
+Also, data must be available / downloaded already.
+
+!!! Tip
+    You can use this function as the last part of strategy development, to ensure your strategy is not exploiting one of the [backtesting assumptions](#assumptions-made-by-backtesting). Strategies that perform similarly well with this mode have a good chance to perform well in dry/live modes too (although only forward-testing (dry-mode) can really confirm a strategy).

+### Pairs file
+
+In alternative to the whitelist from `config.json`, a `pairs.json` file can be used.
+If you are using Binance for example:
+
+- create a directory `user_data/data/binance` and copy or create the `pairs.json` file in that directory.
+- update the `pairs.json` file to contain the currency pairs you are interested in.
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p user_data/data/binance
+touch user_data/data/binance/pairs.json

+
+The format of the `pairs.json` file is a simple json list.

+    "ETH/USDT",
+    "BTC/USDT",
+    "XRP/ETH"

+
+!!! Tip "Downloading all data for one quote currency"
+    Often, you'll want to download data for all pairs of a specific quote-currency. In such cases, you can use the following shorthand:
+    `freqtrade download-data --exchange binance --pairs .*/USDT <...>`. The provided "pairs" string will be expanded to contain all active pairs on the exchange.
+    To also download data for inactive (delisted) pairs, add `--include-inactive-pairs` to the command.
+
+??? Note "Permission denied errors"
+    If your configuration directory `user_data` was made by docker, you may get the following error:
+
+    ```
+    cp: cannot create regular file 'user_data/data/binance/pairs.json': Permission denied
+    ```
+
+    You can fix the permissions of your user-data directory as follows:
+
+    ```
+    sudo chown -R $UID:$GID user_data
+    ```
+
+### Start download
+
+Then run:
+
+```bash
+freqtrade download-data --exchange binance
+```
+
+This will download historical candle (OHLCV) data for all the currency pairs you defined in `pairs.json`.
+
+Alternatively, specify the pairs directly
+
+```bash
+freqtrade download-data --exchange binance --pairs ETH/USDT XRP/USDT BTC/USDT
+```
+
+or as regex (to download all active USDT pairs)
+
+```bash
+freqtrade download-data --exchange binance --pairs .*/USDT
+```
+
+### Other Notes
+
+- To use a different directory than the exchange specific default, use `--datadir user_data/data/some_directory`.
+- To change the exchange used to download the historical data from, please use a different configuration file (you'll probably need to adjust rate limits etc.)
+- To use `pairs.json` from some other directory, use `--pairs-file some_other_dir/pairs.json`.
+- To download historical candle (OHLCV) data for only 10 days, use `--days 10` (defaults to 30 days).
+- To download historical candle (OHLCV) data from a fixed starting point, use `--timerange 20200101-` - which will download all data from January 1st, 2020. Eventually set end dates are ignored.
+- Use `--timeframes` to specify what timeframe download the historical candle (OHLCV) data for. Default is `--timeframes 1m 5m` which will download 1-minute and 5-minute data.
+- To use exchange, timeframe and list of pairs as defined in your configuration file, use the `-c/--config` option. With this, the script uses the whitelist defined in the config as the list of currency pairs to download data for and does not require the pairs.json file.

 This page combines common gotchas and informations which are exchange-specific and most likely don't apply to other exchanges.
 
+## Exchange configuration
+
+Freqtrade is based on [CCXT library](https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt) that supports over 100 cryptocurrency
+exchange markets and trading APIs. The complete up-to-date list can be found in the
+[CCXT repo homepage](https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt/tree/master/python).
+However, the bot was tested by the development team with only a few exchanges.
+A current list of these can be found in the "Home" section of this documentation.
+
+Feel free to test other exchanges and submit your feedback or PR to improve the bot or confirm exchanges that work flawlessly..
+
+Some exchanges require special configuration, which can be found below.
+
+### Sample exchange configuration
+
+A exchange configuration for "binance" would look as follows:
+
+```json
+"exchange": {
+    "name": "binance",
+    "key": "your_exchange_key",
+    "secret": "your_exchange_secret",
+    "ccxt_config": {},
+    "ccxt_async_config": {},
+    // ... 
+```
+
+### Setting rate limits
+
+Usually, rate limits set by CCXT are reliable and work well.
+In case of problems related to rate-limits (usually DDOS Exceptions in your logs), it's easy to change rateLimit settings to other values.
+
+```json
+"exchange": {
+    "name": "kraken",
+    "key": "your_exchange_key",
+    "secret": "your_exchange_secret",
+    "ccxt_config": {"enableRateLimit": true},
+    "ccxt_async_config": {
+        "enableRateLimit": true,
+        "rateLimit": 3100
+    },
+```
+
+This configuration enables kraken, as well as rate-limiting to avoid bans from the exchange.
+`"rateLimit": 3100` defines a wait-event of 0.2s between each call. This can also be completely disabled by setting `"enableRateLimit"` to false.
+
+!!! Note
+    Optimal settings for rate-limiting depend on the exchange and the size of the whitelist, so an ideal parameter will vary on many other settings.
+    We try to provide sensible defaults per exchange where possible, if you encounter bans please make sure that `"enableRateLimit"` is enabled and increase the `"rateLimit"` parameter step by step.

+??? Tip "Unsupported exchanges (Bittrex, Gemini)"

+
+Out of the box, freqtrade installs the following technical libraries:
+
+* [ta-lib](http://mrjbq7.github.io/ta-lib/)
+* [pandas-ta](https://twopirllc.github.io/pandas-ta/)
+* [technical](https://github.com/freqtrade/technical/)
+
+Additional technical libraries can be installed as necessary, or custom indicators may be written / invented by the strategy author.

 ### Strategy startup period
 
 Most indicators have an instable startup period, in which they are either not available, or the calculation is incorrect. This can lead to inconsistencies, since Freqtrade does not know how long this instable period should be.

+### Informative pairs decorator (`@informative()`)
+
+In most common case it is possible to easily define informative pairs by using a decorator. All decorated `populate_indicators_*` methods run in isolation,
+not having access to data from other informative pairs, in the end all informative dataframes are merged and passed to main `populate_indicators()` method.
+When hyperopting, use of hyperoptable parameter `.value` attribute is not supported. Please use `.range` attribute. See [optimizing an indicator parameter](hyperopt.md#optimizing-an-indicator-parameter)
+for more information.

+
+    Most of the time we do not need power and flexibility offered by `merge_informative_pair()`, therefore we can use a decorator to quickly define informative pairs.

+    from freqtrade.strategy import IStrategy, informative

+        @informative('1h', 'BTC/{stake}')

+    
+        def populate_indicators(self, dataframe: DataFrame, metadata: dict) -> DataFrame:

+            dataframe['rsi_less'] = dataframe['rsi'] < dataframe['rsi_1h']
+            return dataframe
+
+    ```
+
+!!! Note
+    Do not use `@informative` decorator if you need to use data of one informative pair when generating another informative pair. Instead, define informative pairs
+    manually as described [in the DataProvider section](#complete-data-provider-sample).
+
+!!! Note
+    Use string formatting when accessing informative dataframes of other pairs. This will allow easily changing stake currency in config without having to adjust strategy code.
+
+    ``` python
+    def populate_buy_trend(self, dataframe: DataFrame, metadata: dict) -> DataFrame:
+        stake = self.config['stake_currency']
+        dataframe.loc[
+            (
+                (dataframe[f'btc_{stake}_rsi_1h'] < 35)
+                &
+                (dataframe['volume'] > 0)
+            ),
+            ['buy', 'buy_tag']] = (1, 'buy_signal_rsi')
+    
+        return dataframe
+    ```
+
+    Alternatively column renaming may be used to remove stake currency from column names: `@informative('1h', 'BTC/{stake}', fmt='{base}_{column}_{timeframe}')`.
+
+!!! Warning "Duplicate method names"
+    Methods tagged with `@informative()` decorator must always have unique names! Re-using same name (for example when copy-pasting already defined informative method)
+    will overwrite previously defined method and not produce any errors due to limitations of Python programming language. In such cases you will find that indicators
+    created in earlier-defined methods are not available in the dataframe. Carefully review method names and make sure they are unique!

+### Peeking into the future while backtesting
+
 Backtesting analyzes the whole time-range at once for performance reasons. Because of this, strategy authors need to make sure that strategies do not look-ahead into the future.
 This is a common pain-point, which can cause huge differences between backtesting and dry/live run methods, since they all use data which is not available during dry/live runs, so these strategies will perform well during backtesting, but will fail / perform badly in real conditions.
