I had low rent, no family obligations, and enough savings to hold me over so decided to start trading. I quickly realized I\u2019d be better off with automation and began my two-year journey to building and deploying hundreds of algorithmic trading strategies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when Broad tried to find existing quant technologies to build from and online communities to learn from, he found that nearly all platforms and ideas were private. This created a massive barrier to entry for the millions of others around the world who had similar passions, but day jobs and families and not enough time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI understood those people because I\u2019d been one of them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By 2012, his engine was up and running and his mission had changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI decided to make quantitative trading accessible. I wanted to create an open-source platform where people could do their work without worrying about hardware or data collection. Our platform would take care of the boring stuff \u2013 API connectivity, back-office plumbing and so on &#8212; so they could jump right into the fun part: creating strategies, backtesting, experimenting, using strategies we or others had created, and trading pretty much as soon as they chose to.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>QuantConnect (QC) was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur core mission is to make quantitative finance accessible by dramatically lowering the barriers to entry through open-source, a collaborative community, and a powerful platform.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The engine that was born in Broad\u2019s apartment grew into an open-source project now called LEAN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LEAN executes the requests made by the Python and C# algorithms written by the QC community, processing data, managing trades and ingesting more than 100 data sources; from the basics like US equities and Morningstar fundamentals, to alternative data like news, sentiment, and macro-economics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAlternative data like Quiver Wall Street Bets and Congress Trading are fun &#8212; information you might think is only tangentially connected with trading that our system packages to make useful to clients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"684\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/quantconnect-updated-screens-1100x684.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-198929 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/quantconnect-updated-screens-1100x684.png 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/quantconnect-updated-screens-700x435.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/quantconnect-updated-screens-300x186.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/quantconnect-updated-screens-768x477.png 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/quantconnect-updated-screens-1536x955.png 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/11\/quantconnect-updated-screens-2048x1273.png 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/684;\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: LEAN<br>Clockwise from upper left: Research: Importing Twitter followers of various companies and testing various machine learning models to explore their effectiveness at forecasting future performance.

With open-source additions from roughly 160 contributors around the world, LEAN is now connected to Interactive Brokers and 16 other firms. QC hosts the IB Gateway Java app for each IBKR client. When they run their algos, LEAN routs them through the Gateway and directly into TWS. Broad says QC now drives a significant number of trades to IBKR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>About three years ago, QC introduced an institutional tier. Now, in addition to their individual and team clients, they support large trading desks &#8212; for one example, a $5B NYC hedge fund with a $100 million trading allocation that uses the platform for research and trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>QC\u2019s largest single client is an ETF provider that builds their models on LEAN, the core QC engine, and uses the platform for research. The ETF firm began with just three people and a complex math problem: building downside hedges to the world\u2019s most popular indexes. Their insights allowed option hedges to protect against volatile crashes, as in March 2020 when the impact of the Covid pandemic first hit the markets.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the project\u2019s challenges was that no platform in the world existed that could accurately model historical options trading. In collaboration with their client, QuantConnect built what Broad calls \u201ca dynamic options margin-solving engine\u201d to allow point-in-time backtesting of complex derivative portfolios. When the work was finished, the ETF could do their research, build their strategy and backtest it with all the historical data they needed. And because the code is all open source, anyone who signs up on QC can now work on option-hedging strategies of their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen the regulators gave the ETF the green light to launch, what began as just one of hundreds of startup clients became an innovative enterprise handling upwards of USD 2 Billion. That\u2019s one of the fun parts of our work: we never know which clients will take off.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LEAN is cloud-hosted, so spinning up servers takes little effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe sometimes think of ourselves as AWS for quants. It is ridiculously easy for firms to scale up, while we handle all the infrastructure and scaling challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Entry-level sign-up is free. The platform provides API documentation and a number of video tutorials. If a client has an IBKR account and just wants to use QC\u2019s algorithms for trading, Broad says they can get started in roughly 30 seconds with just two clicks. They can begin with a paper trading account and experiment with algos without risking real money until they are ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cClick a button to backtest, wait about 10 seconds and LEAN gives you all the historical trades, orders and statistics. When the client is satisfied, they enter their IBKR ID and password and click deploy. That\u2019s all it takes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, that\u2019s not all it takes for LEAN. Behind the scenes, professionally racked servers run non-stop, fueled by low-latency data feeds and fully-redundant high-speed internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve built a professional-grade environment that\u2019s available to everyone who signs up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With its data sources, LEAN engine and educational material, the QC platform aims to offer value to every tier, from individuals who are just learning to sophisticated organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested parties can subscribe to QC directly at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quantconnect.com\">www.quantconnect.com<\/a>
