SQL Helper

This page contains some help if you want to edit your sqlite db.

Install sqlite3

Sqlite3 is a terminal based sqlite application. Feel free to use a visual Database editor like SqliteBrowser if you feel more comfortable with that.

Ubuntu/Debian installation

sudo apt-get install sqlite3

Using sqlite3 via docker-compose

The freqtrade docker image does contain sqlite3, so you can edit the database without having to install anything on the host system.

docker-compose exec freqtrade /bin/bash
sqlite3 <databasefile>.sqlite

Open the DB

sqlite3
.open <filepath>

Table structure

List tables

.tables

.schema <table_name>

Trade table structure

CREATE TABLE trades
    id INTEGER NOT NULL,

    fee_open_cost FLOAT,
    fee_open_currency VARCHAR,

CREATE INDEX ix_trades_stoploss_order_id ON trades (stoploss_order_id);
CREATE INDEX ix_trades_pair ON trades (pair);
CREATE INDEX ix_trades_is_open ON trades (is_open);

Get all trades in the table

SELECT * FROM trades;

Fix trade still open after a manual sell on the exchange

Warning

Manually selling a pair on the exchange will not be detected by the bot and it will try to sell anyway. Whenever possible, forcesell should be used to accomplish the same thing.
It is strongly advised to backup your database file before making any manual changes.

Note

This should not be necessary after /forcesell, as forcesell orders are closed automatically by the bot on the next iteration.

UPDATE trades
SET is_open=0,
  close_date=<close_date>,
  close_rate=<close_rate>,
  close_profit = close_rate / open_rate - 1,
  close_profit_abs = (amount * <close_rate> * (1 - fee_close) - (amount * (open_rate * (1 - fee_open)))),
  sell_reason=<sell_reason>
WHERE id=<trade_ID_to_update>;

Example

UPDATE trades
SET is_open=0,
  close_date='2020-06-20 03:08:45.103418',
  close_rate=0.19638016,
  close_profit=0.0496,
  close_profit_abs = (amount * 0.19638016 * (1 - fee_close) - (amount * (open_rate * (1 - fee_open)))),
  sell_reason='force_sell'  
WHERE id=31;

Manually insert a new trade

INSERT INTO trades (exchange, pair, is_open, fee_open, fee_close, open_rate, stake_amount, amount, open_date)
VALUES ('binance', 'ETH/BTC', 1, 0.0025, 0.0025, <open_rate>, <stake_amount>, <amount>, '<datetime>')

Insert trade example

INSERT INTO trades (exchange, pair, is_open, fee_open, fee_close, open_rate, stake_amount, amount, open_date)
VALUES ('binance', 'ETH/BTC', 1, 0.0025, 0.0025, 0.00258580, 0.002, 0.7715262081, '2020-06-28 12:44:24.000000')

Remove trade from the database

Maybe you'd like to remove a trade from the database, because something went wrong.

DELETE FROM trades WHERE id = <tradeid>;
DELETE FROM trades WHERE id = 31;

Warning

This will remove this trade from the database. Please make sure you got the correct id and NEVER run this query without the where clause.
