### Multiple instances using docker
To run multiple instances of freqtrade using docker you will need to edit the docker-compose.yml file and add all the instances you want as separate services. Remember, you can separate your configuration into multiple files, so it's a good idea to think about making them modular, then if you need to edit something common to all bots, you can do that in a single config file.
``` yml

version: '3'
services:
freqtrade1:
image: freqtradeorg/freqtrade:stable
# image: freqtradeorg/freqtrade:develop
# Use plotting image
# image: freqtradeorg/freqtrade:develop_plot
# Build step - only needed when additional dependencies are needed
# build:
# context: .
# dockerfile: "./docker/Dockerfile.custom"
restart: always
container_name: freqtrade1
volumes:
- "./user_data:/freqtrade/user_data"
# Expose api on port 8080 (localhost only)
# Please read the https://www.freqtrade.io/en/latest/rest-api/ documentation
# before enabling this.
ports:
- "127.0.0.1:8080:8080"
# Default command used when running `docker compose up`
You can use whatever naming convention you want, freqtrade1 and 2 are arbitrary. Note, that you will need to use different database files, port mappings and telegram configurations for each instance, as mentioned above.
## Configure the bot running as a systemd service
Copy the `freqtrade.service` file to your systemd user directory (usually `~/.config/systemd/user`) and update `WorkingDirectory` and `ExecStart` to match your setup.

- `Drawdown Start` / `Drawdown End`: Start and end datetime for this largest drawdown (can also be visualized via the `plot-dataframe` sub-command).
- `Market change`: Change of the market during the backtest period. Calculated as average of all pairs changes from the first to the last candle using the "close" column.
### Daily / Weekly / Monthly breakdown
You can get an overview over daily / weekly or monthly results by using the `--breakdown <>` switch.
To visualize daily and weekly breakdowns, you can use the following:
``` bash
freqtrade backtesting --strategy MyAwesomeStrategy --breakdown day month
```
``` output
======================== DAY BREAKDOWN =========================
The output will show a table containing the realized absolute Profit (in stake currency) for the given timeperiod, as well as wins, draws and losses that materialized (closed) on this day.

This can be useful for backtesting expired pairs (like quarterly spot-markets).
This option must be configured along with `exchange.skip_pair_validation` in the exchange configuration.
When used in a "follow-up" position (e.g. after VolumePairlist), all pairs in `'pair_whitelist'` will be added to the end of the pairlist.
#### Volume Pair List
`VolumePairList` employs sorting/filtering of pairs by their trading volume. It selects `number_assets` top pairs with sorting based on the `sort_key` (which can only be `quoteVolume`).
