BERecommended I have been programming on my bot for over 2 years. In the beginning it was difficult to get to know the platform because there is a lot of possibilities coming at you. But once you understand how this platform works and were to find the information. It's a pleasure to work on your bot. Pros: - Strong community that mostly answers your questions in 24h or max 48 hours. - Working locally or on the platform - Possibility of coding 100% your own strategy - Live Trading with a lot of markets (Equity, Crypto, Forex, Futures). - They listen to proposals to improve the platform and take immediate action. - If using the bronze membership your getting professional help within an hour. (It's normal they charge an amount for the professional help, nothing is free these days.) - Implementing email, sms, telegram messages, ... of the orders the bot is making. Cons: - If u have zero experience programming in Python or C# it's hard to program your own bot despite their learning center. - Maybe an app on the cellphone would be nice. So you can check your bot/code anytime you want (not would be something extra). A tip: Keep persevere once your bot is trading live it's a reward for all the hard work.

FIComplex, difficult API, slow backtesting Extremely slow backtesting and very complex APi with bad documentation - be ready to spend many hours trying to understand the overly complex API that is changing all the time. And did I mention that support costs? So if a anything is complex you won't get answers from the staff unless you PAY them. I give them 2 stars as they have reasonably reliable data. The platform itself is only worth one star. note: if you ask about slowness or any other thing negative on their forum they delete the posts.

GBLong time believer, first time promoter. I've been using Quantconnect for about two years but they've just released new capabilities for options research, based on user feedback, that prompted me to add a review. They listen to, care about, and build new features for their users (free features). Highly recommend.

DEI have been using QuantConnect for over… I have been using QuantConnect for over a year now. I started out using their free tier, which basically lets you do everything that you need to do to get started and more (coding, backtesting, access to historical data). Due to this I was able to learn how to use platform at my own pace without feeling pressured by any fees or costs. When I first started the documentation was still pretty spotty and it was difficult at first but I have always received fast and detailed replies by their staff and other community members, they have since improved their documentation and I have improved from being a beginner on the platform to being one of the helpful community members, I couldn't be happier with how QuantConnect and my own trading journey is evolving!
