+
+```bash
+freqtrade backtesting-analysis -c user_data/config.json --analysis-groups 0 --indicator-list chikou_span tenkan_sen 
+```
+
+In this example,
+we aim to display the `chikou_span` and `tenkan_sen` indicator values at both the entry and exit points of trades.
+
+A sample output for indicators might look like this:
+
+| pair      | open_date                 | enter_reason | exit_reason | chikou_span (entry) | tenkan_sen (entry) | chikou_span (exit) | tenkan_sen (exit) |

+As shown in the table, `chikou_span (entry)` represents the indicator value at the time of trade entry, 
+while `chikou_span (exit)` reflects its value at the time of exit. 
+This detailed view of indicator values enhances the analysis.
+
+The `(entry)` and `(exit)` suffixes are added to indicators
+to distinguish the values at the entry and exit points of the trade.
+
+!!! Note "Trade-wide Indicators"
+    Certain trade-wide indicators do not have the `(entry)` or `(exit)` suffix. These indicators include: `pair`, `stake_amount`, 
+    `max_stake_amount`, `amount`, `open_date`, `close_date`, `open_rate`, `close_rate`, `fee_open`, `fee_close`, `trade_duration`, 
+    `profit_ratio`, `profit_abs`, `exit_reason`,`initial_stop_loss_abs`, `initial_stop_loss_ratio`, `stop_loss_abs`, `stop_loss_ratio`, 
+    `min_rate`, `max_rate`, `is_open`, `enter_tag`, `leverage`, `is_short`, `open_timestamp`, `close_timestamp` and `orders`
+
+#### Filtering Indicators Based on Entry or Exit Signals
+
+The `--indicator-list` option, by default, displays indicator values for both entry and exit signals. To filter the indicator values exclusively for entry signals, you can use the `--entry-only` argument. Similarly, to display indicator values only at exit signals, use the `--exit-only` argument.
+
+Example: Display indicator values at entry signals:
+
+```bash
+freqtrade backtesting-analysis -c user_data/config.json --analysis-groups 0 --indicator-list chikou_span tenkan_sen --entry-only
+```
+
+Example: Display indicator values at exit signals:
+
+```bash
+freqtrade backtesting-analysis -c user_data/config.json --analysis-groups 0 --indicator-list chikou_span tenkan_sen --exit-only
+```
+
+!!! note 
+    When using these filters, the indicator names will not be suffixed with `(entry)` or `(exit)`.

 ## Advanced Logging
 
+Freqtrade uses the default logging module provided by python.
+Python allows for extensive [logging configuration](https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config.html#logging.config.dictConfig) in this regards - way more than what can be covered here.
+
+Default logging (Colored terminal output) is setup by default if no `log_config` is provided.
+Using `--logfile logfile.log` will enable the RotatingFileHandler.
+If you're not content with the log format - or with the default settings provided for the RotatingFileHandler, you can customize logging to your liking.
+
+The default configuration looks roughly like the below - with the file handler being provided - but not enabled.

+!!! Note "highlighted lines"
+    Highlighted lines in the above code-block define the Rich handler and belong together.
+    The formatter "standard" and "file" will belong to the FileHandler.
+
+Each handler must use one of the defined formatters (by name) - and it's class must be available and a valid logging class.
+To actually use a handler - it must be in the "handlers" section inside the "root" segment.
+If this section is left out, freqtrade will provide no output (in the non-configured handler, anyway).
+
+!!! Tip "Explicit log configuration"
+    We recommend to extract the logging configuration from your main configuration, and provide it to your bot via [multiple configuration files](configuration.md#multiple-configuration-files) functionality. This will avoid unnecessary code duplication.
+
+---
+
 On many Linux systems the bot can be configured to send its log messages to `syslog` or `journald` system services. Logging to a remote `syslog` server is also available on Windows. The special values for the `--logfile` command line option can be used for this.
 
 ### Logging to syslog
 
-To send Freqtrade log messages to a local or remote `syslog` service use the `--logfile` command line option with the value in the following format:
+To send Freqtrade log messages to a local or remote `syslog` service use the `"log_config"` setup option to configure logging.

 - Exit-signal is favored over Stoploss, because exit-signals are assumed to trigger on candle's open

+Entries will generally still happen at the main candle's open, however freed trade slots may be freed earlier (if the exit signal is triggered on the 5m candle), which can then be used for a new trade of a different pair.

 !!! 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).
 
+??? Sample "Extreme Difference Example"
+    Using `--timeframe-detail` on an extreme example (all below pairs have the 10:00 candle with an entry signal) may lead to the following backtesting Trade sequence with 1 max_open_trades:
+
+    | Pair | Entry Time | Exit Time | Duration |
+    |------|------------|-----------| -------- |
+    | BTC/USDT | 2024-01-01 10:00:00 | 2021-01-01 10:05:00 | 5m |
+    | ETH/USDT | 2024-01-01 10:05:00 | 2021-01-01 10:15:00 | 10m |
+    | XRP/USDT | 2024-01-01 10:15:00 | 2021-01-01 10:30:00 | 15m |
+    | SOL/USDT | 2024-01-01 10:15:00 | 2021-01-01 11:05:00 | 50m |
+    | BTC/USDT | 2024-01-01 11:05:00 | 2021-01-01 12:00:00 | 55m |
+
+    Without timeframe-detail, this would look like:
+
+    | Pair | Entry Time | Exit Time | Duration |
+    |------|------------|-----------| -------- |
+    | BTC/USDT | 2024-01-01 10:00:00 | 2021-01-01 11:00:00 | 1h |
+    | BTC/USDT | 2024-01-01 11:00:00 | 2021-01-01 12:00:00 | 1h |
+
+    The difference is significant, as without detail data, only the first `max_open_trades` signals per candle are evaluated, and the trade slots are only freed at the end of the candle, allowing for a new trade to be opened at the next candle.

-With a reserve of 5%, the minimum stake amount would be ~12.6$ (`12 * (1 + 0.05)`). If we take into account a stoploss of 10% on top of that - we'd end up with a value of ~14$ (`12.6 / (1 - 0.1)`).

 To limit this calculation in case of large stoploss values, the calculated minimum stake-limit will never be more than 50% above the real limit.
 
 !!! Warning
     Since the limits on exchanges are usually stable and are not updated often, some pairs can show pretty high minimum limits, simply because the price increased a lot since the last limit adjustment by the exchange. Freqtrade adjusts the stake-amount to this value, unless it's > 30% more than the calculated/desired stake-amount - in which case the trade is rejected.
 
+#### Dry-run wallet
+
+When running in dry-run mode, the bot will use a simulated wallet to execute trades. The starting balance of this wallet is defined by `dry_run_wallet` (defaults to 1000).
+For more complex scenarios, you can also assign a dictionary to `dry_run_wallet` to define the starting balance for each currency.
+
+```json
+"dry_run_wallet": {
+    "BTC": 0.01,
+    "ETH": 2,
+    "USDT": 1000
+}
+```
+
+Command line options (`--dry-run-wallet`) can be used to override the configuration value, but only for the float value, not for the dictionary. If you'd like to use the dictionary, please adjust the configuration file.
+
+!!! Note
+    Balances not in stake-currency will not be used for trading, but are shown as part of the wallet balance.
+    On Cross-margin exchanges, the wallet balance may be used to calculate the available collateral for trading.

 #### Tradable balance

+
+!!! Tip "Stoploss on Exchange"
+    Hyperliquid supports `stoploss_on_exchange` and uses `stop-loss-limit` orders. It provides great advantages, so we recommend to benefit from it.
+
+Hyperliquid is a Decentralized Exchange (DEX). Decentralized exchanges work a bit different compared to normal exchanges. Instead of authenticating private API calls using an API key, private API calls need to be signed with the private key of your wallet (We recommend using an api Wallet for this, generated either on Hyperliquid or in your wallet of choice).
+This needs to be configured like this:
+
+```json
+"exchange": {
+    "name": "hyperliquid",
+    "walletAddress": "your_eth_wallet_address",
+    "privateKey": "your_api_private_key",
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+* walletAddress in hex format: `0x<40 hex characters>` - Can be easily copied from your wallet - and should be your wallet address, not your API Wallet Address.
+* privateKey in hex format: `0x<64 hex characters>` - Use the key the API Wallet shows on creation.
+
+Hyperliquid handles deposits and withdrawals on the Arbitrum One chain, a Layer 2 scaling solution built on top of Ethereum. Hyperliquid uses USDC as quote / collateral. The process of depositing USDC on Hyperliquid requires a couple of steps, see [how to start trading](https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/onboarding/how-to-start-trading) for details on what steps are needed.
+
+!!! Note "Hyperliquid general usage Notes"
+    Hyperliquid does not support market orders, however ccxt will simulate market orders by placing limit orders with a maximum slippage of 5%.  
+    Unfortunately, hyperliquid only offers 5000 historic candles, so backtesting will either need to build candles historically (by waiting and downloading the data incrementally over time) - or will be limited to the last 5000 candles.
+
+!!! Info "Some general best practices (non exhaustive)"
+    * Beware of supply chain attacks, like pip package poisoning etcetera. Whenever you use your private key, make sure your environment is safe.
+    * Don't use your actual wallet private key for trading. Use the Hyperliquid [API generator](https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/API) to create a separate API wallet.
+    * Don't store your actual wallet private key on the server you use for freqtrade. Use the API wallet private key instead. This key won't allow withdrawals, only trading.
+    * Always keep your mnemonic phrase and private key private.
+    * Don't use the same mnemonic as the one you had to backup when initializing a hardware wallet, using the same mnemonic basically deletes the security of your hardware wallet.
+    * Create a different software wallet, only transfer the funds you want to trade with to that wallet, and use that wallet to trade on Hyperliquid.
+    * If you have funds you don't want to use for trading (after making a profit for example), transfer them back to your hardware wallet.

 ### FreqAI position in open-source machine learning landscape
 
-Forecasting chaotic time-series based systems, such as equity/cryptocurrency markets, requires a broad set of tools geared toward testing a wide range of hypotheses. Fortunately, a recent maturation of robust machine learning libraries (e.g. `scikit-learn`) has opened up a wide range of research possibilities. Scientists from a diverse range of fields can now easily prototype their studies on an abundance of established machine learning algorithms. Similarly, these user-friendly libraries enable "citzen scientists" to use their basic Python skills for data exploration. However, leveraging these machine learning libraries on historical and live chaotic data sources can be logistically difficult and expensive. Additionally, robust data collection, storage, and handling presents a disparate challenge. [`FreqAI`](#freqai) aims to provide a generalized and extensible open-sourced framework geared toward live deployments of adaptive modeling for market forecasting. The `FreqAI` framework is effectively a sandbox for the rich world of open-source machine learning libraries. Inside the `FreqAI` sandbox, users find they can combine a wide variety of third-party libraries to test creative hypotheses on a free live 24/7 chaotic data source - cryptocurrency exchange data.

 Should results not match, check the following factors:
 
 * You may have added parameters to hyperopt in `populate_indicators()` where they will be calculated only once **for all epochs**. If you are, for example, trying to optimise multiple SMA timeperiod values, the hyperoptable timeperiod parameter should be placed in `populate_entry_trend()` which is calculated every epoch.

+#### Percent Change Pair List
+
+`PercentChangePairList` filters and sorts pairs based on the percentage change in their price over the last 24 hours or any defined timeframe as part of advanced options. This allows traders to focus on assets that have experienced significant price movements, either positive or negative.
+
+**Configuration Options**
+
+* `number_assets`: Specifies the number of top pairs to select based on the 24-hour percentage change.
+* `min_value`: Sets a minimum percentage change threshold. Pairs with a percentage change below this value will be filtered out.
+* `max_value`: Sets a maximum percentage change threshold. Pairs with a percentage change above this value will be filtered out.
+* `sort_direction`: Specifies the order in which pairs are sorted based on their percentage change. Accepts two values: `asc` for ascending order and `desc` for descending order.
+* `refresh_period`: Defines the interval (in seconds) at which the pairlist will be refreshed. The default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
+* `lookback_days`: Number of days to look back. When `lookback_days` is selected, the `lookback_timeframe` is defaulted to 1 day.
+* `lookback_timeframe`: Timeframe to use for the lookback period.
+* `lookback_period`: Number of periods to look back at. 
+
+When PercentChangePairList is used after other Pairlist Handlers, it will operate on the outputs of those handlers. If it is the leading Pairlist Handler, it will select pairs from all available markets with the specified stake currency.
+
+`PercentChangePairList` uses ticker data from the exchange, provided via the ccxt library:
+The percentage change is calculated as the change in price over the last 24 hours.
+
+??? Note "Unsupported exchanges"
+    On some exchanges (like HTX), regular PercentChangePairList does not work as the api does not natively provide 24h percent change in price. This can be worked around by using candle data to calculate the percentage change. To roughly simulate 24h percent change, you can use the following configuration. Please note that these pairlists will only refresh once per day.
+    ```json
+    "pairlists": [
+        {
+            "method": "PercentChangePairList",
+            "number_assets": 20,
+            "min_value": 0,
+            "refresh_period": 86400,
+            "lookback_days": 1
+        }
+    ],
+    ```
+
+**Example Configuration to Read from Ticker**
+
+```json
+"pairlists": [
+    {
+        "method": "PercentChangePairList",
+        "number_assets": 15,
+        "min_value": -10,
+        "max_value": 50
+    }
+],
+```
+
+In this configuration:
+
+1. The top 15 pairs are selected based on the highest percentage change in price over the last 24 hours.
+2. Only pairs with a percentage change between -10% and 50% are considered.
+
+**Example Configuration to Read from Candles**
+
+```json
+"pairlists": [
+    {
+        "method": "PercentChangePairList",
+        "number_assets": 15,
+        "sort_key": "percentage",

+        "lookback_timeframe": "1h",
+        "lookback_period": 72
+    }
+],
+```
+
+This example builds the percent change pairs based on a rolling period of 3 days of 1-hour candles by using `lookback_timeframe` for candle size and `lookback_period` which specifies the number of candles.
+
+The percent change in price is calculated using the following formula, which expresses the percentage difference between the current candle's close price and the previous candle's close price, as defined by the specified timeframe and lookback period:
+
+$$ Percent Change = (\frac{Current Close - Previous Close}{Previous Close}) * 100 $$
+
+!!! Warning "Range look back and refresh period"
+    When used in conjunction with `lookback_days` and `lookback_timeframe` the `refresh_period` can not be smaller than the candle size in seconds. As this will result in unnecessary requests to the exchanges API.
+
+!!! Warning "Performance implications when using lookback range"
+    If used in first position in combination with lookback, the computation of the range-based percent change can be time and resource consuming, as it downloads candles for all tradable pairs. Hence it's highly advised to use the standard approach with `PercentChangePairList` to narrow the pairlist down for further percent-change calculation.

+The `categories` setting specifies the [coingecko categories](https://www.coingecko.com/en/categories) from which to select coins from. The default is an empty list `[]`, meaning no category filtering is applied.
+If an incorrect category string is chosen, the plugin will print the available categories from CoinGecko and fail. The category should be the ID of the category, for example, for `https://www.coingecko.com/en/categories/layer-1`, the category ID would be `layer-1`. You can pass multiple categories such as `["layer-1", "meme-token"]` to select from several categories.
+
+!!! Warning "Many categories"
+    Each added category corresponds to one API call to CoinGecko. The more categories you add, the longer the pairlist generation will take, potentially causing rate limit issues.
+
+!!! Danger "Duplicate symbols in coingecko"
+    Coingecko often has duplicate symbols, where the same symbol is used for different coins. Freqtrade will use the symbol as is and try to search for it on the exchange. If the symbol exists - it will be used. Freqtrade will however not check if the _intended_ symbol is the one coingecko meant. This can sometimes lead to unexpected results, especially on low volume coins or with meme coin categories.

+# Freqtrade Strategies 101: A Quick Start for Strategy Development
+
+For the purposes of this quick start, we are assuming you are familiar with the basics of trading, and have read the 
+[Freqtrade basics](bot-basics.md) page.
+
+## Required Knowledge
+
+A strategy in Freqtrade is a Python class that defines the logic for buying and selling cryptocurrency `assets`.
+
+Assets are defined as `pairs`, which represent the `coin` and the `stake`. The coin is the asset you are trading using another currency as the stake.
+
+Data is supplied by the exchange in the form of `candles`, which are made up of a six values: `date`, `open`, `high`, `low`, `close` and `volume`.
+
+`Technical analysis` functions analyse the candle data using various computational and statistical formulae, and produce secondary values called `indicators`.
+
+Indicators are analysed on the asset pair candles to generate `signals`.
+
+Signals are turned into `orders` on a cryptocurrency `exchange`, i.e. `trades`.
+
+We use the terms `entry` and `exit` instead of `buying` and `selling` because Freqtrade supports both `long` and `short` trades.
+
+- **long**: You buy the coin based on a stake, e.g. buying the coin BTC using USDT as your stake, and you make a profit by selling the coin at a higher rate than you paid for. In long trades, profits are made by the coin value going up versus the stake.
+- **short**: You borrow capital from the exchange in the form of the coin, and you pay back the stake value of the coin later. In short trades profits are made by the coin value going down versus the stake (you pay the loan off at a lower rate).
+
+Whilst Freqtrade supports spot and futures markets for certain exchanges, for simplicity we will focus on spot (long) trades only.
+
+## Structure of a Basic Strategy
+
+### Main dataframe
+
+Freqtrade strategies use a tabular data structure with rows and columns known as a `dataframe` to generate signals to enter and exit trades.
+
+Each pair in your configured pairlist has its own dataframe. Dataframes are indexed by the `date` column, e.g. `2024-06-31 12:00`.
+
+The next 5 columns represent the `open`, `high`, `low`, `close` and `volume` (OHLCV) data.
+
+### Populate indicator values
+
+The `populate_indicators` function adds columns to the dataframe that represent the technical analysis indicator values.
+
+Examples of common indicators include Relative Strength Index, Bollinger Bands, Money Flow Index, Moving Average, and Average True Range.
+
+Columns are added to the dataframe by calling technical analysis functions, e.g. ta-lib's RSI function `ta.RSI()`, and assigning them to a column name, e.g. `rsi`
+
+```python
+dataframe['rsi'] = ta.RSI(dataframe)
+```
+
+??? Hint "Technical Analysis libraries"
+    Different libraries work in different ways to generate indicator values. Please check the documentation of each library to understand
+    how to integrate it into your strategy. You can also check the [Freqtrade example strategies](https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade-strategies) to give you ideas.
+
+### Populate entry signals
+
+The `populate_entry_trend` function defines conditions for an entry signal.
+
+The dataframe column `enter_long` is added to the dataframe, and when a value of `1` is in this column, Freqtrade sees an entry signal.
+
+??? Hint "Shorting"
+    To enter short trades, use the `enter_short` column.
+
+### Populate exit signals
+
+The `populate_exit_trend` function defines conditions for an exit signal.
+
+The dataframe column `exit_long` is added to the dataframe, and when a value of `1` is in this column, Freqtrade sees an exit signal.
+
+??? Hint "Shorting"
+    To exit short trades, use the `exit_short` column.
+
+## A simple strategy
+
+Here is a minimal example of a Freqtrade strategy:
+
+```python
+from freqtrade.strategy import IStrategy
+from pandas import DataFrame
+import talib.abstract as ta
+
+class MyStrategy(IStrategy):
+
+    timeframe = '15m'
+
+    # set the initial stoploss to -10%
+    stoploss = -0.10
+
+    # exit profitable positions at any time when the profit is greater than 1%
+    minimal_roi = {"0": 0.01}
+
+    def populate_indicators(self, dataframe: DataFrame, metadata: dict) -> DataFrame:
+        # generate values for technical analysis indicators
+        dataframe['rsi'] = ta.RSI(dataframe, timeperiod=14)
+
+        return dataframe
+
+    def populate_entry_trend(self, dataframe: DataFrame, metadata: dict) -> DataFrame:
+        # generate entry signals based on indicator values
+        dataframe.loc[
+            (dataframe['rsi'] < 30),
+            'enter_long'] = 1
+
+        return dataframe
+
+    def populate_exit_trend(self, dataframe: DataFrame, metadata: dict) -> DataFrame:
+        # generate exit signals based on indicator values
+        dataframe.loc[
+            (dataframe['rsi'] > 70),
+            'exit_long'] = 1
+
+        return dataframe
+```
+
+## Making trades
+
+When a signal is found (a `1` in an entry or exit column), Freqtrade will attempt to make an order, i.e. a `trade` or `position`.
+
+Each new trade position takes up a `slot`. Slots represent the maximum number of concurrent new trades that can be opened.
+
+The number of slots is defined by the `max_open_trades` [configuration](configuration.md) option.
+
+However, there can be a range of scenarios where generating a signal does not always create a trade order. These include:
+
+- not enough remaining stake to buy an asset, or funds in your wallet to sell an asset (including any fees)
+- not enough remaining free slots for a new trade to be opened (the number of positions you have open equals the `max_open_trades` option)
+- there is already an open trade for a pair (Freqtrade cannot stack positions - however it can [adjust existing positions](strategy-callbacks.md#adjust-trade-position))
+- if an entry and exit signal is present on the same candle, they are considered as [colliding](strategy-customization.md#colliding-signals), and no order will be raised
+- the strategy actively rejects the trade order due to logic you specify by using one of the relevant [entry](strategy-callbacks.md#trade-entry-buy-order-confirmation) or [exit](strategy-callbacks.md#trade-exit-sell-order-confirmation) callbacks
+
+Read through the [strategy customization](strategy-customization.md) documentation for more details.
+
+## Backtesting and forward testing
+
+Strategy development can be a long and frustrating process, as turning our human "gut instincts" into a working computer-controlled
+("algo") strategy is not always straightforward.
+
+Therefore a strategy should be tested to verify that it is going to work as intended.
+
+Freqtrade has two testing modes:
+
+- **backtesting**: using historical data that you [download from an exchange](data-download.md), backtesting is a quick way to assess performance of a strategy. However, it can be very easy to distort results so a strategy will look a lot more profitable than it really is. Check the [backtesting documentation](backtesting.md) for more information.
+- **dry run**: often referred to as _forward testing_, dry runs use real time data from the exchange. However, any signals that would result in trades are tracked as normal by Freqtrade, but do not have any trades opened on the exchange itself. Forward testing runs in real time, so whilst it takes longer to get results it is a much more reliable indicator of **potential** performance than backtesting.
+
+Dry runs are enabled by setting `dry_run` to true in your [configuration](configuration.md#using-dry-run-mode).
+
+!!! Warning "Backtests can be very inaccurate"
+    There are many reasons why backtest results may not match reality. Please check the [backtesting assumptions](backtesting.md#assumptions-made-by-backtesting) and [common strategy mistakes](strategy-customization.md#common-mistakes-when-developing-strategies) documentation.
+    Some websites that list and rank Freqtrade strategies show impressive backtest results. Do not assume these results are achieveable or realistic.
+
+??? Hint "Useful commands"
+    Freqtrade includes two useful commands to check for basic flaws in strategies: [lookahead-analysis](lookahead-analysis.md) and [recursive-analysis](recursive-analysis.md).
+
+### Assessing backtesting and dry run results
+
+Always dry run your strategy after backtesting it to see if backtesting and dry run results are sufficiently similar.
+
+If there is any significant difference, verify that your entry and exit signals are consistent and appear on the same candles between the two modes. However, there will always be differences between dry runs and backtests:
+
+- Backtesting assumes all orders fill. In dry runs this might not be the case if using limit orders or there is no volume on the exchange.
+- Following an entry signal on candle close, backtesting assumes trades enter at the next candle's open price (unless you have custom pricing callbacks in your strategy). In dry runs, there is often a delay between signals and trades opening.
+  This is because when new candles come in on your main timeframe, e.g. every 5 minutes, it takes time for Freqtrade to analyse all pair dataframes. Therefore, Freqtrade will attempt to open trades a few seconds (ideally a small a delay as possible)
+  after candle open.
+- As entry rates in dry runs might not match backtesting, this means profit calculations will also differ. Therefore, it is normal if ROI, stoploss, trailing stoploss and callback exits are not identical.
+- The more computational "lag" you have between new candles coming in and your signals being raised and trades being opened will result in greater price unpredictability. Make sure your computer is powerful enough to process the data for the number 
+  of pairs you have in your pairlist within a reasonable time. Freqtrade will warn you in the logs if there are significant data processing delays.
+
+## 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:
+
+- **[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.
+- **[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.
+
+## 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.
+
+Therefore, taking public strategies and using backtests as a way to assess performance is often problematic. However, Freqtrade provides useful ways to help you make decisions and do your due diligence.
+
+There are many different ways to achieve profitability, and there is no one single tip, trick or config option that will fix a poorly performing strategy.
+
+Freqtrade is an open source platform with a large and helpful community - make sure to visit our [discord channel](https://discord.gg/p7nuUNVfP7) to discuss your strategy with others!
+
+As always, only invest what you are willing to lose.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+Developing a strategy in Freqtrade involves defining entry and exit signals based on technical indicators. By following the structure and methods outlined above, you can create and test your own trading strategies.
+
+Common questions and answers are available on our [FAQ](faq.md).
