freqtrade-gym

This project is base on freqtrade

The project is in very early stage, so there are a lot of inconvenient part that you have to set up manually. I am working on the improvements.

Installation

1. freqtrade

Follow the freqtrade documentation to install freqtrade

Initialize the user_directory

freqtrade create-userdir --userdir user_data/

2. Pandas

pip install pandas

3. OpenAI Gym

pip install gym

4. Copy freqtrade-gym files

Baseline files

IndicatorforRL.py -> [freqtrade home]/user_data/strategies/IndicatorforRL.py
config_rl.json -> [freqtrade home]/config_rl.json
freqtradegym.py -> [freqtrade home]/freqtradegym.py
deep_rl.py -> [freqtrade home]/deep_rl.py

RLib

Copy first the baseline files.
LoadRLModel.py -> [freqtrade home]/user_data/strategies/LoadRLModel.py
rllib_example.py -> [freqtrade home]/rllib_example.py

Example Usage (baseline)

The usage example is deep_rl.py and the config for freqtrade and freqtrade-gym is config_rl.json and uses IndicatorforRL.py as feature extraction.
This demo is using openai baseline library to train reinforcement learning agents.
Baseline can install by

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install cmake libopenmpi-dev python3-dev zlib1g-dev
pip install stable-baselines[mpi]

Download historical data
(Remember to download a little bit more data than the timerange in config file just in case.)

freqtrade download-data -c <config file> --days <Int> -t {1m,3m,5m...}

To match the example config_rl.json

freqtrade download-data -c config_rl.json --timerange 20201119-20201201 -t 15m

Move the IndicatorforRL.py into user_data/strategies (you should have user_data/strategies/IndicatorforRL.py)

Run the demo to train an agent.

python deep_rl.py

You can use tensorboard to monior the training process
logdir is defined in deep_rl.py when initializing the rl model

tensorboard --logdir <logdir>

This will look like

Example Usage (RLlib)

The usage example is rllib_example.py and the config for freqtrade and freqtrade-gym is config_rl.json and uses IndicatorforRL.py as feature extraction.
This demo is using RLlib to train reinforcement learning agents.
Baseline can install by

pip install 'ray[rllib]'

Run the demo to train an agent.

python rllib_example.py

Example of Loading model for backtesting or trading (baseline)

Move the LoadRLModel.py into user_data/strategies (you should have user_data/strategies/LoadRLModel.py)

Modified the class intial load model part to your model type and path.

Modified the populate_indicators and rl_model_redict method for your gym settings.

Run the backtesting

freqtrade backtesting -c config_rl.json -s LoadRLModel

Dry-run trading (remove --dry-run for real deal!)

freqtrade trade --dry-run -c config_rl.json -s LoadRLModelgProto

TODO

• Update the strategy for loadinf the trained model for backtesting and real trading. (baseline)
• The features name and total feature number(freqtradegym.py line 89) have to manually match in the indicator strategy and in freqtradegym. I would like to come up with a way to set up features in config file.
• RLlib example.
• Update the strategy for loadinf the trained model for backtesting and real trading (RLlib).
• NEAT example.
