Is it possible to setup real time market scanner (like ib.reqMarketScanner) in QuantConnect? I saw this reference https://www.quantconnect.com/lean/documentation/topic5433.html
as well as some other dicsussions on the forum where people asked for pre market scans. However, I am looking for an intraday scanner. Also, if it's possible, then can it be done with other data providers like IQFeed or eSignal?

Hi Biarys,
We only support live trading features that are also supported in backtesting, so we can't use IBKR reqMarketScanner. However, it's possible to create such a scanner by importing custom data from other data providers.
Best,
