Install freqtrade cryptotrading bot. This script was tested on Debian 10.

Disclaimer: This software can, and probably will, lose your money. Investigate, find a strategy you're comfortable with, and use it with this bot. You are responsible for your decisions and your money. There are no warranties.

Purpose: The purpose of this script is to provide an automated installation process, a working configuration and strategy, and to simply make it easier to install, configure and update freqtrade.

Considerations: The provided configuration and strategy are Binance specific and probably won't work with other exchanges without a few modifications.

Before continuing make sure you already have the following information:

  • Exchange key

If you want to set up multiple bots, run the command again and choose a different bot name.
