## Controlling or monitoring a running bot
Once your bot is running in dry or live mode, Freqtrade has five mechanisms to control or monitor a running bot:
Once your bot is running in dry or live mode, Freqtrade has six mechanisms to control or monitor a running bot:
- **[FreqUI](freq-ui.md)**: The easiest to get started with, FreqUI is a web interface to see and control current activity of your bot.
- **[Telegram](telegram-usage.md)**: On mobile devices, Telegram integration is available to get alerts about your bot activity and to control certain aspects.
- **[FTUI](https://github.com/freqtrade/ftui)**: FTUI is a terminal (command line) interface to Freqtrade, and allows monitoring of a running bot only.
- **[REST API](rest-api.md)**: The REST API allows programmers to develop their own tools to interact with a Freqtrade bot.
- **[freqtrade-client](rest-api.md#consuming-the-api)**: A python implementation of the REST API, making it easy to make requests and consume bot responses from your python apps or the command line.
- **[REST API endpoints](rest-api.md#available-endpoints)**: The REST API allows programmers to develop their own tools to interact with a Freqtrade bot.
- **[Webhooks](webhook-config.md)**: Freqtrade can send information to other services, e.g. discord, by webhooks.
### Logs
Freqtrade generates extensive debugging logs to help you understand what's happening. Please familiarise yourself with the information and error messages you might see in your bot logs.
Logging by default occurs on standard out (the command line). If you want to write out to a file instead, many freqtrade commands, including the `trade` command, accepts the `--logfile` option to write to a file.
Check the [FAQ](https://www.freqtrade.io/en/stable/faq/#how-do-i-search-the-bot-logs-for-something) for examples.
## Final Thoughts
Algo trading is difficult, and most public strategies are not good performers due to the time and effort to make a strategy work profitably in multiple scenarios.
