Plot price and indicators
Usage for the price plotter: script/plot_dataframe.py [-h] [-p pair]
Example
python script/plot_dataframe.py -p BTC_ETH,BTC_LTC
The -p pair argument, can be used to specify what pair you would like to plot.
Plot profit
The profit plotter show a picture with three plots:
- Average closing price for all pairs
- The summarized profit made by backtesting. Note that this is not the real-world profit, but more of an estimate.
- Each pair individually profit
The first graph is good to get a grip of how the overall market progresses.
The second graph will show how you algorithm works or doesnt. Perhaps you want an algorithm that steadily makes small profits, or one that acts less seldom, but makes big swings.
The third graph can be useful to spot outliers, events in pairs that makes profit spikes.
Usage for the profit plotter: script/plot_profit.py [-h] [-p pair] [--datadir directory] [--ticker_interval num]
The -p pair argument, can be used to plot a single pair
Example
python python scripts/plot_profit.py --datadir ../freqtrade/freqtrade/tests/testdata-20171221/ -p BTC_LTC
