#### "reverse" parameter

If you set "reverse" parameter to true in the alert message, this tool doubles order size from your second order so that position on dYdX is matched to Tradingview's one. Please give a different strategy name in "strategy" parameter to each strategy.&#x20;

Each strategy data is stored as a JSON file in `/data/strategies` folder.

You can reset to the initial state by deleting this JSON file (or modifying in JSON file)&#x20;

```
rm -rf ./data/strategies/[mainnet | testent]
```

#### Order History CSV

Order history data is stored in /data/exports folder in CSV format.

You can transfer that CSV file by scp command
