Hey All,
A partner and I have been working on a strategy and an algorithm now for about 6 months. We're about 90% done. We still have a bunch of things to add in and test though. We're looking for help with the coding given we both work long hours and in different time zones and are still learning things needed to finish the algo. Its an ema crossing strategy, not too complex, and were focusing on Forex but looking to convert to it stocks and futures after. Just need the help with finishing adding/debugging/testing the final parts. Its written in C#. Its looking very promising so far, which is why we're looking to finish it sooner rather than later and could use some help! Not too sure how the algo ranking system works/ how meaningful it is, but we've had many #0, top 1% back tests, so hopefully a good one for your personal use.

Hi Jared, I was wondering how you pass parameters to an algorithm for backtesting through the QC API? I looked through the documentation but couldn't find it there. Thanks!

Sorry Stephen its not supported at this time :) We'll open it up once we fully support optimization. Optimizing requires the right cloud infrastructure to really scale and get results quickly without "clogging up the pipes" for the rest of the web platform.

@Joseph Jones, thank you for sharing your findings with trading low volume equities. Have you attempted to do any rudementary fixes such as holding your transaction until volume is reported at your price? That may not be enough to be live trading accurate though.
