 "what": "Freqtrade is a free, open-source crypto trading bot in Python that supports major exchanges including Binance, Bybit, Kraken, OKX and Hyperliquid. It includes dry-run mode, backtesting, plotting, money management, strategy optimisation by machine learning (hyperopt), the FreqAI adaptive prediction module, and control through Telegram or a built-in web UI.
