Introduction
Trading strategy for the Freqtrade crypto bot. For backtesting results, check out the comments in the individual commit page.
General Recommendations
For optimal performance, suggested to use between 6 and 12 open trades, with unlimited stake.
A pairlist with 40 to 80 pairs. Volume pairlist works well.
Prefer stable coin (USDT, USDC etc) pairs, instead of BTC or ETH pairs.
Highly recommended to blacklist leveraged tokens (*BULL, *BEAR, *UP, *DOWN etc).
Ensure that you don't override any variables in you config.json. Especially the timeframe (must be 5m).
use_exit_signal must set to true (or not set at all).exit_profit_only must set to false (or not set at all).ignore_roi_if_entry_signal must set to true (or not set at all).
Automatic Updates (Standalone Script)
For users who are not using the Docker Compose updater, the repository also includes the tools/checkupdates.sh script.
What this script does:
- Checks the NFI repository for updates and downloads the latest release or main branch commit
- Extracts the archive and updates the strategy files and all blacklist JSON files
- Cleans up downloaded and extracted files
- Optionally restarts a Docker container and sends Telegram notifications
The script supports two update modes:
releases - Use official GitHub releases and update to the latest stable releasecommits - Use the latest commit from the main branch
How to automate the update process:
- Run the script manually first to create the configuration file and select your preferred update mode.
- After the configuration file is created, set up a cron job to run the script periodically.
- Run
crontab -e and add a line such as the following to run the script every hour:
0 * * * * /path/to/your/script/checkupdates.sh
Automatic Updates (Docker)
The repository includes an nfi-updater sidecar service for Docker Compose users that keeps the strategy, blacklist, and pairlist automatically up to date without manual intervention.
What it does:
- Checks the strategy file, blacklist, and pairlist against the latest version on GitHub on a configurable schedule (default: every day at 10:00 AM in your timezone)
- Watches the blacklist file via HTTP ETag every 60 seconds and applies critical updates immediately
- Automatically restarts the freqtrade container only when a file actually changed
How to enable it:
The nfi-updater service is already defined in docker-compose.yml. It starts alongside freqtrade automatically when you run:
docker compose up -d --build
Configuration (add to your .env):
# Timezone for the cron schedule
TZ=Europe/London
# How often to check for updates (cron syntax, default: daily at 10:00 AM)
NFI_UPDATE_CRON=0 10 * * *
# Docker Compose project name — must match what 'docker compose ls' shows
# Docker uses the lowercase folder name by default
COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME=nostalgiaforinfinity

docker compose logs -f nfi-updater
