Firms that want to design, build, and deploy algorithms are now getting access to a safe cloud-based ecosystem that will allow them a safe testing haven.
Online trading firm OANDA is now helping its clients connect to QuantConnect, provider of an open-source cloud-based algorithmic trading engine, the ability to research, build, test and deploy their own trading algorithms directly from OANDA’s platform.
OANDA’s retail clients now enjoy access to the OANDA Algo Lab, where they can harness the power of QuantConnect’s cloud-based algorithmic trading engine for free.
