Hi all. I am Matthew, currently doing discretionary trading on Futures & ForEx. My past careers include programming algormithms in Java & C & C++ & Python; I am interested in algorithm coding for quantative analysis; I have never done back-testing so I found quantConnect to practice. I have been a VP of Engineer and CTO and Senior Software Architect for micro-services in past careers together with hands on coding in JavaScipt, Objective-C, C, C++, and database implementations.
Hi! I'm so happy such a community exist. I come from Quebec, Canada.
Now I have a general idea how Python work, but I'm still a beginner. I see lots of people using C language : Is there a specific section for programmers who use python?
I'm looking for the super basic stuff, examples. I red all the documentation, I'm ready for the practical stuff, but I just don't know where to start, yep! :)
Is the community is divided by section?
Thanks
I look foward to evolved in the great world of algo
Dear all,

Hi, I've been trading commodities for the last 6 years and have some basic concepts i do manually that i want to automate. Hopefully figure out the more complicated stuff later on down the line too. First i'd just like to learn how i can draw trendlines and use them to do a basic trade. I have a basic grasp of Python and coding as i used to make websites and have been learning basic python. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks
I am completely new to algorithmic trading but have done years of machine learning. I have a couple of orthogonal ideas that and I am hopeful they will produce interesting results.
Hi!
I'm new here... I would like to register as an Alpha Developer but i dont have a LinkedIn account, is there any way around it? I would also like to learn more about Alpha Streams, what is considered a good alpha, what are review criterias, how the marketplace looks like and ... more :)
Kind regards,
Gregor
Welcome Gregor! Its one of the variables funds will use in the selection process. They'll ideally want to see a robust network and social-proof of employment history. Its important evidence to help avoid concerns about using misappropriated algorithms. That said -- you can sign up for a new LinkedIn account with 0 connections to start; we might just need to do some other manual background checks if the rest of the alpha passes selection.
Regarding a good alpha -- this is the beauty of Alpha Streams! Each fund in the marketplace will have different criterias and it increases the chances of your selection. We've launched with 1 fund so far (Tibra) and will be adding more over the next year. Tibra trades all asset classes and time frames.
Individual alpha's don't need to be "amazing" (as most of the time that would just be curve fitting). Funds will combine 1000's of them together and form an aggregate decision. They should take some theory or vision of the world and build a signal which trades on it.

Hi,
I recently started working on the QC platform as it's the only truely open and flexible algo platform that I'm aware of that supports options backtesting and live trading, which opens the door to the wonderful world of options algos at a low entry cost.
This platform and community interactiion that Jared and his team have made available is really awesome - definitely democritising finance and much appreciated :)
I'm a software engineer with wide ranging experience in many languages and domains and also an experienced equities, futures, forex and options trader.
