QUANTCONNECT COMMUNITY
Hi,
I wondered where can i start building an algorithm.
I finished the bootcamp and read the documentation, plus i have some background.
How can i see another algorithms from the community, examples, etc.
This is the community forum or there are other places?
Thanks,
Eran

I'd suggest live trading Eran, start simple with say stock+bond etf. And then grow more strategies :)

Thanks for the answer Jared.
Live trading with real money? what is the rationale behind it?
I didn't develop one algo yet.
Jared Broad
Going live demystifies the experience and makes it seems less of an obstacle. It'll help focus your brain on the right questions like what strategy should I write not what is the next step. You are already live with a basic strategy - let's improve it.
I'd suggest a modest capital amount to start to get the hang of things and only scaling up slowly to get a stomach for watching the algorithm manage the capital.

QuantConnect supports paper trading your strategies. Paper trading is possible using your brokerage (IB, OANDA) or the QuantConnect "Paper Brokerage Model.".
With your experience there are strategies users implemented that are making positive returns long term?
Yes, there are plenty of live algorithms developed by members that have positive returns.
