These are not your trades but other people's trades! Gekko works by monitoring the "price", but the price is simply the rate for which other people are trading. So whenever it is "processing trades" it means that other people have been buying and selling and Gekko needs to calculate the new price (or candles to be more precise).

Quote:How can I see logs in details ? For example, My Params says Buy, But Binance return error, etc?

I'm not quite sure what you mean but: Gekko will only buy or sell after your strategy gave a signal. And whenever you strategy gives a signal it shows up in your tradebot log. So as long as you don't see anything there Gekko is calculating the price and passing it to your strategy, while waiting on your strategy to give a signal.

EDIT: I see that you are live trading on POWR/BTC, I am not familiar with that market but keep in mind that if it's not a big market (volume and liquidity) it will be hard to make money there with Gekko. I've made a youtube video that explains this concept: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0yc1sonYvo

Thanks Mike. Since, there was no trade on my "TradeBot", I was looking log to understand what was wrong.. Tradebot logs do not shows any log for Buy & Sell signals. So, I am good. 

My backtesting results were really good for BTC/POWR in Binance. That's why, I choose to run live on this. 

Btw, thanks for the video.
