Shady 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.

Accelerator of analysis! Really nice platform to boost your algorithmic trading.

Long 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.

Great technology, accessible team, invaluable supporters of the ecosystem QuantConnect has been an invaluable partner for my personal trading and for a university class that I teach. The community is incredibly supportive, and the leadership team are accessible which is almost unheard of in trading platforms these days. In my class, my graduate level students have been able to personally engage and implement constructs like Fama French factors, and QuantConnect has been an active supporter to facilitate my students learning. It's incredible to join the community, have access to a variety of detailed trading algorithms, instructional videos, and see my students feel confident implementing week-to-week. I don't think there's anything like QuantConnect out there today, and I'm a big supporter of their efforts. I can't imagine my own trading or teaching my class without it!

Alex 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!!!
