Precision for ta-lib 0.6.x was increased

This won't be a problem for any normal usdt pair.
shitcoins on some exchanges (e.g gate) with 12 zeros before the first significant digit wouldn't have worked today, either.
Modify the original three duplicate functions (_profit_short, _profit_long, _profit), and add _profit_handler and _format_profit_message.
Refactor telegram.py and rpc.py.
Sorry for the duplicate functions yesterday, I was a bit rushed.
Both pytest and ruff have passed.
# Added `/profit_long` and `/profit_short` Commands
Users can now use commands like:
- `/profit_long [<n>]`
- `/profit_short [<n>]`
- `/profit [<n>]`

## Key Changes Implemented
### `freqtrade/rpc/telegram.py`:
- The `_profit` command handler has been updated to robustly parse `long` or `short` as optional arguments.
- **Translation:** The `_profit` command handler has been improved to reliably interpret `long` or `short` as optional parameters.
- The determined direction is passed to the RPC layer.
- **Translation:** The direction determined (either `long` or `short`) is passed to the RPC layer.
- The `/help` command documentation is updated.
- **Translation:** The documentation for the `/help` command has been updated accordingly.
---
### `freqtrade/rpc/rpc.py`:
- The `_rpc_trade_statistics` method now accepts a direction parameter.
- **Translation:** The `_rpc_trade_statistics` method has been updated to accept a `direction` parameter.
- The method has been refactored into a main function and a `_process_trade_stats` helper function to reduce complexity and improve readability.
- **Translation:** The method has been refactored into a main function and a helper function, `_process_trade_stats`, to reduce complexity and improve readability.
- The database query filter is dynamically modified to include a condition on `Trade.is_short` when a direction is provided.
- **Translation:** The database query filter dynamically adjusts to include a condition on `Trade.is_short` when a direction is specified.
---
### `tests/rpc/test_rpc_telegram.py`:
- Existing tests for `_profit` have been updated to match the new message format.
- **Translation:** Existing tests for the `_profit` function have been updated to match the new message format.
- New test cases have been added to specifically validate the `long` and `short` filtering functionality.
- **Translation:** New test cases have been added to specifically validate the filtering functionality for `long` and `short` trades.

## Testing
- All local `pytest` tests pass successfully.
- **Translation:** All local `pytest` tests have passed successfully.
- All `ruff` linter checks pass.
- **Translation:** All `ruff` code checks have passed.
- As I do not have a full local deployment, I am relying on the CI pipeline for final validation.
- **Translation:** Since I don't have a complete local deployment, I am relying on the CI pipeline for final validation.

This time, only a little AI was used :)
Except for the translation.
This commit enhances the /profit Telegram command to allow filtering by trade direction.
- The `_profit` handler in `telegram.py` now parses 'long'/'short' arguments and passes the direction to the RPC layer.
- The `_rpc_trade_statistics` method in `rpc.py` is updated to filter trades based on the provided direction. It has also been refactored for lower complexity.
- The `/help` command documentation is updated to reflect the new functionality.
- Corresponding unit tests in `test_rpc_telegram.py` are updated and extended to cover the new cases.
We'll for now issue a warning about this - and use the "current" tier
This way, gaps in tier data (between maxNotional and the next
minNotional) no longer cause an operational exception.
closes#11923
The bug happened since it just checked the length of the list itself, not what it represents. in this case .*/USDT could be any amount of pairs
when the user sets a max_open_trades of let's say 3 then the pairs only have 3 trade slots of whatever amount of pairs it really has and thereby creating a bottleneck.
This just sets the max_open_trades to -1 without even checking it, letting freqtrade itself handle the amount of trades allowed at a given time.
AI generated strategies and configs cause a lot of noise.
we should be clear that people shall read the documentation first
(this will also allow us to point people at this within the issue).

### 2. Test if your code corresponds to our style guide
#### Run Ruff
We receive a lot of code that fails preliminary CI checks.
To help with that, we encourage contributors to install the git pre-commit hook that will let you know immediately when you try to commit code that fails these checks.
You can manually run pre-commit with `pre-commit run -a` - or install the git hook with `pre-commit install` to have it run automatically on each commit.
Running `pre-commit run -a` will run all checks, including `ruff`, `mypy` and `codespell` (among others).
#### Additional styles applied
- Have docstrings on all public methods
- Use double-quotes for docstrings
- Multiline docstrings should be indented to the level of the first quote
- Doc-strings should follow the reST format (`:param xxx: ...`, `:return: ...`, `:raises KeyError: ...`)
#### Manually run the individual checks
The following sections describe how to run the individual checks that are running as part of the pre-commit hook.
##### Run ruff

### Using export-filename
### Using backtest-filename
Normally, `backtesting-analysis` uses the latest backtest results, but if you wanted to go
back to a previous backtest output, you need to supply the `--export-filename` option.
You can supply the same parameter to `backtest-analysis` with the name of the final backtest
output file. This allows you to keep historical versions of backtest results and re-analyse
them at a later date:
By default, `backtesting-analysis` processes the most recent backtest results in the `user_data/backtest_results` directory.
If you want to analyze results from an earlier backtest, use the `--backtest-filename` option to specify the desired file. This lets you revisit and re-analyze historical backtest outputs at any time by providing the filename of the relevant backtest result:
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]`".
Possible values are either one of "NSGAIISampler", "TPESampler", "GPSampler", "CmaEsSampler", "NSGAIIISampler", "QMCSampler" (Details can be found in the [optuna-samplers documentation](https://optuna.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/samplers/index.html)), or "an instance of a class that inherits from `optuna.samplers.BaseSampler`".
Some research will be necessary to find additional Regressors.
Example for `ExtraTreesRegressor` ("ET") with additional parameters:
# Corresponds to "ET" - but allows additional parameters.
return ExtraTreesRegressor(n_estimators=100)
```
The `dimensions` parameter is the list of `skopt.space.Dimension` objects corresponding to the parameters to be optimized. It can be used to create isotropic kernels for the `skopt.learning.GaussianProcessRegressor` estimator. Here's an example:
Some research will be necessary to find additional Samplers (from optunahub) for example.

The third table provides a breakdown of trades by their entry tags (e.g., `enter_long`, `enter_short`), showing the number of entries, average profit percentage, total profit in the stake currency, total profit percentage, average duration, and the number of wins, draws, and losses for each tag.
### Exit reason stats table
The fourth table contains a recap of exit reasons (e.g., `exit_signal`, `roi`, `stop_loss`, `force_exit`). This table can tell you which area needs additional work (e.g., if many `exit_signal` trades are losses, you should work on improving the exit signal or consider disabling it).
### Mixed tag stats table
The fifth table combines entry tags and exit reasons, providing a detailed view of how different entry tags performed with specific exit reasons. This can help identify which combinations of entry and exit strategies are most effective.
### Summary metrics

## Introduction
Trading strategies are not perfect. They are frameworks that are susceptible to the market and its indicators. Because the market is not at all predictable, sometimes a strategy will win and sometimes the same strategy will lose.
To obtain an edge in the market, a strategy has to make more money than it loses. Making money in trading is not only about *how often* the strategy makes or loses money.
!!! tip "It doesn't matter how often, but how much!"
A bad strategy might make 1 penny in *ten* transactions but lose 1 dollar in *one* transaction. If one only checks the number of winning trades, it would be misleading to think that the strategy is actually making a profit.
The Edge Positioning module seeks to improve a strategy's winning probability and the money that the strategy will make *on the long run*.
We raise the following question[^1]:
!!! Question "Which trade is a better option?"
a) A trade with 80% of chance of losing 100\$ and 20% chance of winning 200\$<br/>
b) A trade with 100% of chance of losing 30\$
???+ Info "Answer"
The expected value of *a)* is smaller than the expected value of *b)*.<br/>
Hence, *b*) represents a smaller loss in the long run.<br/>
However, the answer is: *it depends*
Another way to look at it is to ask a similar question:
!!! Question "Which trade is a better option?"
a) A trade with 80% of chance of winning 100\$ and 20% chance of losing 200\$<br/>
b) A trade with 100% of chance of winning 30\$
Edge positioning tries to answer the hard questions about risk/reward and position size automatically, seeking to minimizes the chances of losing of a given strategy.
### Trading, winning and losing
Let's call $o$ the return of a single transaction $o$ where $o \in \mathbb{R}$. The collection $O = \{o_1, o_2, ..., o_N\}$ is the set of all returns of transactions made during a trading session. We say that $N$ is the cardinality of $O$, or, in lay terms, it is the number of transactions made in a trading session.
!!! Example
In a session where a strategy made three transactions we can say that $O = \{3.5, -1, 15\}$. That means that $N = 3$ and $o_1 = 3.5$, $o_2 = -1$, $o_3 = 15$.
A winning trade is a trade where a strategy *made* money. Making money means that the strategy closed the position in a value that returned a profit, after all deducted fees. Formally, a winning trade will have a return $o_i > 0$. Similarly, a losing trade will have a return $o_j \leq 0$. With that, we can discover the set of all winning trades, $T_{win}$, as follows:
$$ T_{win} = \{ o \in O | o > 0 \} $$
Similarly, we can discover the set of losing trades $T_{lose}$ as follows:
$$ T_{lose} = \{o \in O | o \leq 0\} $$
!!! Example
In a section where a strategy made four transactions $O = \{3.5, -1, 15, 0\}$:<br>
$T_{win} = \{3.5, 15\}$<br>
$T_{lose} = \{-1, 0\}$<br>
### Win Rate and Lose Rate
The win rate $W$ is the proportion of winning trades with respect to all the trades made by a strategy. We use the following function to compute the win rate:
$$W = \frac{|T_{win}|}{N}$$
Where $W$ is the win rate, $N$ is the number of trades and, $T_{win}$ is the set of all trades where the strategy made money.
Similarly, we can compute the rate of losing trades:
$$
L = \frac{|T_{lose}|}{N}
$$
Where $L$ is the lose rate, $N$ is the amount of trades made and, $T_{lose}$ is the set of all trades where the strategy lost money. Note that the above formula is the same as calculating $L = 1 – W$ or $W = 1 – L$
### Risk Reward Ratio
Risk Reward Ratio ($R$) is a formula used to measure the expected gains of a given investment against the risk of loss. It is basically what you potentially win divided by what you potentially lose. Formally:
$$ R = \frac{\text{potential_profit}}{\text{potential_loss}} $$
???+ Example "Worked example of $R$ calculation"
Let's say that you think that the price of *stonecoin* today is 10.0\$. You believe that, because they will start mining stonecoin, it will go up to 15.0\$ tomorrow. There is the risk that the stone is too hard, and the GPUs can't mine it, so the price might go to 0\$ tomorrow. You are planning to invest 100\$, which will give you 10 shares (100 / 10).
R &= \frac{\text{potential_profit}}{\text{potential_loss}}\\
&= \frac{50}{15}\\
&= 3.33
\end{aligned}$<br>
What it effectively means is that the strategy have the potential to make 3.33\$ for each 1\$ invested.
On a long horizon, that is, on many trades, we can calculate the risk reward by dividing the strategy' average profit on winning trades by the strategy' average loss on losing trades. We can calculate the average profit, $\mu_{win}$, as follows:
By combining the Win Rate $W$ and the Risk Reward ratio $R$ to create an expectancy ratio $E$. A expectance ratio is the expected return of the investment made in a trade. We can compute the value of $E$ as follows:
$$E = R * W - L$$
!!! Example "Calculating $E$"
Let's say that a strategy has a win rate $W = 0.28$ and a risk reward ratio $R = 5$. What this means is that the strategy is expected to make 5 times the investment around on 28% of the trades it makes. Working out the example:<br>
$E = R * W - L = 5 * 0.28 - 0.72 = 0.68$
<br>
The expectancy worked out in the example above means that, on average, this strategy' trades will return 1.68 times the size of its losses. Said another way, the strategy makes 1.68\$ for every 1\$ it loses, on average.
This is important for two reasons: First, it may seem obvious, but you know right away that you have a positive return. Second, you now have a number you can compare to other candidate systems to make decisions about which ones you employ.
It is important to remember that any system with an expectancy greater than 0 is profitable using past data. The key is finding one that will be profitable in the future.
You can also use this value to evaluate the effectiveness of modifications to this system.
!!! Note
It's important to keep in mind that Edge is testing your expectancy using historical data, there's no guarantee that you will have a similar edge in the future. It's still vital to do this testing in order to build confidence in your methodology but be wary of "curve-fitting" your approach to the historical data as things are unlikely to play out the exact same way for future trades.
## How does it work?
Edge combines dynamic stoploss, dynamic positions, and whitelist generation into one isolated module which is then applied to the trading strategy. If enabled in config, Edge will go through historical data with a range of stoplosses in order to find buy and sell/stoploss signals. It then calculates win rate and expectancy over *N* trades for each stoploss. Here is an example:
The goal here is to find the best stoploss for the strategy in order to have the maximum expectancy. In the above example stoploss at $3%$ leads to the maximum expectancy according to historical data.
Edge module then forces stoploss value it evaluated to your strategy dynamically.
### Position size
Edge dictates the amount at stake for each trade to the bot according to the following factors:
- Allowed capital at risk
- Stoploss
Allowed capital at risk is calculated as follows:
```
Allowed capital at risk = (Capital available_percentage) X (Allowed risk per trade)
```
Stoploss is calculated as described above with respect to historical data.
The position size is calculated as follows:
```
Position size = (Allowed capital at risk) / Stoploss
```
Example:
Let's say the stake currency is **ETH** and there is $10$ **ETH** on the wallet. The capital available percentage is $50%$ and the allowed risk per trade is $1\%$. Thus, the available capital for trading is $10 * 0.5 = 5$ **ETH** and the allowed capital at risk would be $5 * 0.01 = 0.05$ **ETH**.
- **Trade 1:** The strategy detects a new buy signal in the **XLM/ETH** market. `Edge Positioning` calculates a stoploss of $2\%$ and a position of $0.05 / 0.02 = 2.5$ **ETH**. The bot takes a position of $2.5$ **ETH** in the **XLM/ETH** market.
- **Trade 2:** The strategy detects a buy signal on the **BTC/ETH** market while **Trade 1** is still open. `Edge Positioning` calculates the stoploss of $4\%$ on this market. Thus, **Trade 2** position size is $0.05 / 0.04 = 1.25$ **ETH**.
!!! Tip "Available Capital $\neq$ Available in wallet"
The available capital for trading didn't change in **Trade 2** even with **Trade 1** still open. The available capital **is not** the free amount in the wallet.
- **Trade 3:** The strategy detects a buy signal in the **ADA/ETH** market. `Edge Positioning` calculates a stoploss of $1\%$ and a position of $0.05 / 0.01 = 5$ **ETH**. Since **Trade 1** has $2.5$ **ETH** blocked and **Trade 2** has $1.25$ **ETH** blocked, there is only $5 - 1.25 - 2.5 = 1.25$ **ETH** available. Hence, the position size of **Trade 3** is $1.25$ **ETH**.
!!! Tip "Available Capital Updates"
The available capital does not change before a position is sold. After a trade is closed the Available Capital goes up if the trade was profitable or goes down if the trade was a loss.
- The strategy detects a sell signal in the **XLM/ETH** market. The bot exits **Trade 1** for a profit of $1$ **ETH**. The total capital in the wallet becomes $11$ **ETH** and the available capital for trading becomes $5.5$ **ETH**.
- **Trade 4** The strategy detects a new buy signal int the **XLM/ETH** market. `Edge Positioning` calculates the stoploss of $2\%$, and the position size of $0.055 / 0.02 = 2.75$ **ETH**.

## Running Edge independently
You can run Edge independently in order to see in details the result. Here is an example:
Edge produced the above table by comparing `calculate_since_number_of_days` to `minimum_expectancy` to find `min_trade_number` historical information based on the config file. The timerange Edge uses for its comparisons can be further limited by using the `--timerange` switch.
In live and dry-run modes, after the `process_throttle_secs` has passed, Edge will again process `calculate_since_number_of_days` against `minimum_expectancy` to find `min_trade_number`. If no `min_trade_number` is found, the bot will return "whitelist empty". Depending on the trade strategy being deployed, "whitelist empty" may be return much of the time - or *all* of the time. The use of Edge may also cause trading to occur in bursts, though this is rare.
If you encounter "whitelist empty" a lot, condsider tuning `calculate_since_number_of_days`, `minimum_expectancy` and `min_trade_number` to align to the trading frequency of your strategy.
### Update cached pairs with the latest data
Edge requires historic data the same way as backtesting does.
Please refer to the [Data Downloading](data-download.md) section of the documentation for details.
Doing `--timerange=-20190901` will get all available data until September 1st (excluding September 1st 2019).

This is an informational message that the bot tried to use candles from the websocket, but the exchange didn't provide the right information.
This can happen if there was an interruption to the websocket connection - or if the pair didn't have any trades happen in the timeframe you are using.

* **`populate_exit_trend()`** - Vectorized signal-based exit logic using indicators in the main dataframe
✅ **Use** to define exit signals based on indicators or other data that can be calculated in a vectorized manner.
🚫 **Don't use** to customize exit conditions for each individual trade, or if trade data is necessary to make an exit decision.
* **`custom_exit()`** - Custom exit logic that will fully exit a trade immediately, called for every open trade at every bot loop iteration until a trade is closed.
✅ **Use** to specify exit conditions for each individual trade (including any additional adjusted orders using `adjust_trade_position()`), or if trade data is necessary to make an exit decision, e.g. using profit data to exit.
🚫 **Don't use** when you want to exit using vectorised indicator-based data (use a `populate_exit_trend()` signal instead), or as a proxy for `custom_stoploss()`, and be aware that rate-based exits in backtesting can be inaccurate.
* **`custom_stoploss()`** - Custom trailing stoploss, called for every open trade every iteration until a trade is closed. The value returned here is also used for [stoploss on exchange](stoploss.md#stop-loss-on-exchangefreqtrade).
✅ **Use** to customize the stoploss logic to set a dynamic stoploss based on trade data or other conditions.
🚫 **Don't use** to exit a trade immediately based on a specific condition. Use `custom_exit()` for that purpose.
* **`custom_roi()`** - Custom ROI, called for every open trade every iteration until a trade is closed.
✅ **Use** to specify a minimum ROI threshold ("take-profit") to exit a trade at this ROI level at some point within the trade duration, based on profit or other conditions.
🚫 **Don't use** to exit a trade immediately based on a specific condition. Use `custom_exit()`.
🚫 **Don't use** for static ROI. Use `minimal_roi`.

To learn how to get data for the pairs and exchange you're interested in,

`lookahead-analysis` also supports freqai strategies.

This is done by not looking at the strategy itself - but at the results it returned.
The results are things like changed indicator-values and moved entries/exits compared to the full backtest.

You can use commands of [Backtesting](backtesting.md).
It also supports the lookahead-analysis of freqai strategies.
`lookahead-analysis` can use the typical options of [Backtesting](backtesting.md), but forces the following options:
- `--cache` is forced to "none".
- `--max-open-trades` is forced to be at least equal to the number of pairs.
- `--dry-run-wallet` is forced to be basically infinite (1 billion).
- `--stake-amount` is forced to be a static 10000 (10k).
- `--enable-protections` is forced to be off.
- `order_types` are forced to be "market" (late entries) unless `--lookahead-allow-limit-orders` is set.
Those are set to avoid users accidentally generating false positives.

### Summary
Checks a given strategy for look ahead bias via lookahead-analysis
Look ahead bias means that the backtest uses data from future candles thereby not making it viable beyond backtesting
and producing false hopes for the one backtesting.

The above output was reduced to options that `lookahead-analysis` adds on top of regular backtesting commands.
### Introduction
Many strategies - without the programmer knowing - have fallen prey to lookahead bias.
Many strategies, without the programmer knowing, have fallen prey to lookahead bias.
This typically makes the strategy backtest look profitable, sometimes to extremes, but this is not realistic as the strategy is "cheating" by looking at data it would not have in dry or live modes.
Any backtest will populate the full dataframe including all timestamps at the beginning.
The reason why strategies can "cheat" is because the freqtrade backtesting process populates the full dataframe including all candle timestamps at the outset.
If the programmer is not careful or oblivious how things work internally
(which sometimes can be really hard to find out) then it will just look into the future making the strategy amazing
but not realistic.
(which sometimes can be really hard to find out) then the strategy will look into the future.
This command is made to try to verify the validity in the form of the aforementioned lookahead bias.
This command is made to try to verify the validity in the form of the aforementioned lookahead bias.
### How does the command work?
It will start with a backtest of all pairs to generate a baseline for indicators and entries/exits.
After the backtest ran, it will look if the `minimum-trade-amount` is met
and if not cancel the lookahead-analysis for this strategy.
After this initial backtest runs, it will look if the `minimum-trade-amount` is met and if not cancel the lookahead-analysis for this strategy.
If this happens, use a wider timerange to get more trades for the analysis, or use a timerange where more trades occur.
After setting the baseline it will then do additional runs for every entry and exit separately.
When a verification-backtest is done, it will compare the indicators as the signal (either entry or exit) and report the bias.
After all signals have been verified or falsified a result-table will be generated for the user to see.
After setting the baseline it will then do additional backtest runs for every entry and exit separately.
When these verificationbacktests complete, it will compare both dataframes (baseline and sliced) for any difference in columns' value and report the bias.
After all signals have been verified or falsified a resulttable will be generated for the user to see.
### How to find and remove bias? How can I salvage a biased strategy?
If you found a biased strategy online and want to have the same results, just without bias,
then you will be out of luck most of the time.
Usually the bias in the strategy is THE driving factor for "too good to be true" profits.
Removing conditions or indicators that push the profits up from bias will usually make the strategy significantly worse.
You might be able to salvage it partially if the biased indicators or conditions are not the core of the strategy, or there
are other entry and exit signals that are not biased.
### Examples of lookahead-bias
- `shift(-10)` looks 10 candles into the future.
- Using `iloc[]` in populate_* functions to access a specific row in the dataframe.
- For-loops are prone to introduce lookahead bias if you don't tightly control which numbers are looped through.
- Aggregation functions like `.mean()`, `.min()` and `.max()`, without a rolling window,
will calculate the value over the **whole** dataframe, so the signal candle will "see" a value including future candles.
A non-biased example would be to look back candles using `rolling()` instead:
e.g. `dataframe['volume_mean_12'] = dataframe['volume'].rolling(12).mean()`
- `ta.MACD(dataframe, 12, 26, 1)` will introduce bias with a signalperiod of 1.
### What do the columns in the results table mean?
- `filename`: name of the checked strategy file
- `strategy`: checked strategy class name
- `has_bias`: result of the lookahead-analysis. `No` would be good, `Yes` would be bad.
- `total_signals`: number of checked signals (default is 20)
- `biased_entry_signals`: found bias in that many entries
- `biased_exit_signals`: found bias in that many exits
- `biased_indicators`: shows you the indicators themselves that are defined in populate_indicators
You might get false positives in the `biased_exit_signals` if you have biased entry signals paired with those exits.
However, a biased entry will usually result in a biased exit too,
even if the exit itself does not produce the bias -
especially if your entry and exit conditions use the same biased indicator.
**Address the bias in the entries first, then address the exits.**
### Caveats
- `lookahead-analysis` can only verify / falsify the trades it calculated and verified.
If the strategy has many different signals / signal types, it's up to you to select appropriate parameters to ensure that all signals have triggered at least once. Not triggered signals will not have been verified.
This could lead to a false-negative (the strategy will then be reported as non-biased).
- `lookahead-analysis` has access to everything that backtesting has too.
Please don't provoke any configs like enabling position stacking.
If you decide to do so, then make doubly sure that you won't ever run out of `max_open_trades`amount and neither leftover money in your wallet.
- In the results table, the `biased_indicators` column will falsely flag FreqAI target indicators defined in `set_freqai_targets()` as biased. These are not biased and can safely be ignored.
If the strategy has many different signals / signal types, it's up to you to select appropriate parameters to ensure that all signals have triggered at least once. Signals that are not triggered will not have been verified.
This would lead to a false-negative, i.e. the strategy will be reported as non-biased.
- `lookahead-analysis` has access to the same backtesting options and this can introduce problems.
Please don't use any options like enabling position stacking as this will distort the number of checked signals.
If you decide to do so, then make doubly sure that you won't ever run out of `max_open_trades`slots,
and that you have enough capital in the backtest wallet configuration.
- limit orders in combination with `custom_entry_price()` and `custom_exit_price()` callbacks can cause late / delayed entries and exists, causing false positives.
To avoid this - market orders are forced for this command. This implicitly means that `custom_entry_price()` and `custom_exit_price()` callbacks are not called.
Using `--lookahead-allow-limit-orders` will skip the override and use your configured order types - however has shown to eventually produce false positives.
- In the results table, the `biased_indicators` column
will falsely flag FreqAI target indicators defined in `set_freqai_targets()` as biased.

## Custom ROI
Called for open trade every iteration (roughly every 5 seconds) until a trade is closed.
The usage of the custom ROI method must be enabled by setting `use_custom_roi=True` on the strategy object.
This method allows you to define a custom minimum ROI threshold for exiting a trade, expressed as a ratio (e.g., `0.05` for 5% profit). If both `minimal_roi` and `custom_roi` are defined, the lower of the two thresholds will trigger an exit. For example, if `minimal_roi` is set to `{"0": 0.10}` (10% at 0 minutes) and `custom_roi` returns `0.05`, the trade will exit when the profit reaches 5%. Also, if `custom_roi` returns `0.10` and `minimal_roi` is set to `{"0": 0.05}` (5% at 0 minutes), the trade will be closed when the profit reaches 5%.
The method must return a float representing the new ROI threshold as a ratio, or `None` to fall back to the `minimal_roi` logic. Returning `NaN` or `inf` values is considered invalid and will be treated as `None`, causing the bot to use the `minimal_roi` configuration.
### Custom ROI examples
The following examples illustrate how to use the `custom_roi` function to implement different ROI logics.
#### Custom ROI per side
Use different ROI thresholds depending on the `side`. In this example, 5% for long entries and 2% for short entries.
By default, freqtrade use the orderbook to automatically set an order price([Relevant documentation](configuration.md#prices-used-for-orders)), you also have the option to create custom order prices based on your strategy.

You can learn more about storing data on the [Storing custom trade data](strategy-advanced.md#storing-information-persistent) section.
Please keep in mind that this is considered advanced usage, and should be used with care.
## Plot annotations callback
The plot annotations callback is called whenever freqUI requests data to display a chart.
This callback has no meaning in the trade cycle context and is only used for charting purposes.
The strategy can then return a list of `AnnotationType` objects to be displayed on the chart.
Depending on the content returned - the chart can display horizontal areas, vertical areas, or boxes.
The full object looks like this:
``` json
{
"type": "area", // Type of the annotation, currently only "area" is supported
"start": "2024-01-01 15:00:00", // Start date of the area
"end": "2024-01-01 16:00:00", // End date of the area
"y_start": 94000.2, // Price / y axis value
"y_end": 98000, // Price / y axis value
"color": "",
"z_level": 5, // z-level, higher values are drawn on top of lower values. Positions relative to the Chart elements need to be set in freqUI.

### *funding_rate(pair)*
Retrieves the current funding rate for the pair and only works for futures pairs in the format of `base/quote:settle` (e.g. `ETH/USDT:USDT`).
The funding rate structure is aligned with the funding rate structure from [ccxt](https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt/wiki/Manual#funding-rate-structure), so the result will be formatted as follows:
``` python
{
"info": {
# ...
},
"symbol": "BTC/USDT:USDT",
"markPrice": 110730.7,
"indexPrice": 110782.52,
"interestRate": 0.0001,
"estimatedSettlePrice": 110822.67200153,

"nextFundingTimestamp": None,
"nextFundingDatetime": None,
"previousFundingRate": None,
"previousFundingTimestamp": None,
"previousFundingDatetime": None,
"interval": None,

```
Therefore, using `funding_rate['fundingRate']` as demonstrated above will use the current funding rate.
Actually available data will vary between exchanges, so this code may not work as expected across exchanges.
!!! Warning "Warning about backtesting"
Current funding-rate is not part of the historic data which means backtesting and hyperopt will not work correctly if this method is used, as the method will return up-to-date values.
We recommend to use the historically available funding rate for backtesting (which is automatically downloaded, and is at the frequency of what the exchange provides, usually 4h or 8h).
