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.

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.

AUThis is a pretty unique business This is a pretty unique business. I've learned a lot as an investor just creating and running simulations here. I really wish these folks the best and hope they can continue to grow and thrive.

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!!!
