GBShady site Shady site not sure if the team behind are trustworthy with holding your algos data. I found other frameworks like backtrader that are easier to pick up and get working with quickly than LEAN. LEAN is poorly documenting making learning a huge hurdle. Also, I question the stability of their site because of the amount of bugs you can find in their UI and some that I encountered in plotting during backtrading. If you need an online IDE, Quantopian is far more reliable and documented and quicker to work with but still could have issues with data privacy.

GBAlex stayed the course and helped me… Alex stayed the course and helped me with an issue that turned out to be not QuantConnect’s fault. But it turns out his idea led to a resolution. Much appreciation!!!

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.

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
