Does QC support Binance Futures or Margin for live trading?
I want to write a strategy and backtest on Binance Futures but if live trading is not supported for futures, I would switch to Margin (so that I can short).
If Binance is not supported I want to know if Bitfinex Margin is supported and how to filter universe for coins/cryptos that have margin trading.

Hi Shreyas Nanaware,
QuantConnect/Lean does not support crypto-currency futures with Binance or any other crypto-currency brokerage yet. Bitfinex Margin is supported, and, in Lean, all crypto-currency pairs support margin with Bitfinex.
 Please check out the supported security types on the docs.
Best,

Is there a way to get all symbols (supported in Bitfinex Margin) in the universe selection?

Hi Shreyas Nanaware,
No, there is no built-in feature for the above. You can manually add the tickers supported for Bitfinex by referring to the following CSV file containing all the assets currently supported in Lean/QC.
