ESMaking Quant Analysis and Trading accessible to everyone I knew about QuantConnect when I was desperately searching online for Options Historical data in the US markets. Everything else I found was expensive and required me a lot of manual handling. Not to say they weren't realistic at all (i.e. didn't consider company splits, adquisitions, etc.). QuantConnect and the open source lean framework made it very easy to implement trading algorithms (with a results very close to what I get in Interactive Brokers; including fees, splits, dividends, option assignments, etc.) at a very cheap cost (you just pay for the cloud computing resources). Being open source makes it very easy to figure out how to do things, however, they have interactive tutorials that will prepare anyone with basic development skills to implement real-live trading algorithms. Not to say the community is awesome and very helpful. QuantConnect is easily escalable for both small individuals and large corportations. Many organizations and hedge funds use it for their analysis and live trading.

CAHave been using QC for 3 years Have been using QC as an individual for 3 years, has been a smooth and consistent experience the entire time. Quantconnect makes building a trading algorithm highly accessible to anyone with an idea and a bit of coding knowledge. Handling all the background infrastructure for you, they make it easy to build your algorithm, backtest against market data, and even deploy it live with a supported brokerage. Sometimes it can be a bit difficult to learn the syntax and what a method does, but there is a lot of documentation available, as well as community forums. All this has really helped me focus on my strategy rather than building infrastructure from the ground up and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to try out quant finance or algorithmic trading.

GBQuantConnect.com review - SLOW QuantConnect review : QuantConnect is one of the great platform to implement automated quant trading strategies. However what makes me unhappy with this platform is that it is very slow at times. Refer to screenshot link below showing the wait time more than 1800 seconds. https:// ibb. co/ BLBg52D

HKThis is the best platform for… This is the best platform for individuals. I seldom subscribe to 'pro-account' things, but I did for this one. The dirty stuff like data cleansing, backtesting framework, error handling is done by them and I can focus on the fun stuff, printing money.

ZAQuantconnect is a great resource for quantitative strategy deployment Quantconnect is a great resource for the deployment of algorithmic and quantitative trading ideas. Once a user is familiar with the event-driven architecture of the trading platform, bringing strategies into action which align with a trader/investor's view of the financial markets can be carried out with great efficiency. The documentation for the trading platform is comprehensive and helps with strategy tuning. Then there's backtesting and optimization which are pretty great to tinker with, amongst other resources user can interact with. Sometimes the website is slow, but never for a prolonged period, however it is still a nag. Overall, I'm delighted with the product; looking forward to more deployments and engagements with the community!
