FreqTrade Trade Exit Logic

Implementation

Implementation of freqtrade trade exit logic follows a modular architecture. Configuration files define parameters, strategy modules handle logic, and exchange adapters manage execution.

Code Structure

The code structure separates concerns: data ingestion, signal generation, risk checks, and order submission. This modularity enables testing and reuse across strategies.
