Hello, there. I'm new to futures trading on QuantConnect.
I learned from the "QuantConnect University: Futures Example" that the futures data are available for backtest, but I see from Quandl that the ES futures data are updated once a day.
Is that data streaming real-time for trading on QuantConnect?

Welcome Han Chen, officially we only support equities and forex in backtesting and live trading. We do allow importing custom data (such as futures like in the QCU example). Quandl data updates will be piped into a live algorithm. If there's a delay on Quandl's end it will delay the live feed update too.
