I am new to quant connect. I am studying the tutorial to options now for some hours (

https://www.quantconnect.com/tutorials/api-tutorials/using-options-in-quantconnect

) without success. There seem to be two IDEs. One for backtesting an algorithm with money and a research IDE. In the backtesting IDE, I have no output of the data like the table of option prices in the tutorial. In the tutorial he uses the Initialize and OnData method so I think he uses the backtesting IDE.

I tried to print the table of the tutorial with all the google option information in the research IDE (please see the code attached). But it seems as if there is no data available for options because I get back "empty data frame". I also dont know how to create the slice object properly. How can I add some plots etc. to the backtesting IDE?
