Hello everyone. Hope you are all doing well. I will be migrating over a strategy and custom indicators from Tradestation Easylanguage. The reason I am moving is that Tradestation doesn't allow the automation of options trades.
I know I am on the Quantconnect site but would this be the best solution for me to automate trading options?
Does Quantconnect have a best brokerage to sync with?
Is there any easy way to move easy language over?

Hi Jonathan,
Our platform is a great place to automate options trading. Currently, IB is our only supported brokerage that offers option trading.
To start the process of translating your strategies from Tradestation, I recommend reviewing our Applied Options tutorial series. It's a great way to learn our API.
Best,

Thank you so much for the quick answer. Where would I find someone I could hire to help with the transition over?

We're making a section of the site now for consultants and tutors. Please give us a few days it'll be online and you can select one of the "certified engineers".
