Curious if there are any additional brokers that Quantconnect plans on adding in the future? Would be great to have some of the more popular stock trading brokers like TD Ameritrade and Robinhood available for live trading through Quantconnect!

We're monitoring TD's API for stability at the moment on Reddit to see how it is performing for people in general. At the moment they have issues reported every month and it seems too unstable to add for now.
Robinhood is interesting but has no official API, and there will be issues they'll not want to fix as they don't officially support it...
We're adding Trading Technologies and Bloomberg EMSX shortly. They are robust high-quality API's which should support firms' growth on the platform. For now, IB and Alpaca are the best bet for retail quants. It's far easier to move your capital to another brokerage than to deal with live trading instabilities from a poorly designed API!

Jared - Thanks for the response, that is great to know! I certainly agree that moving your capital to a different brokerage is not much of a hassle considering the benefits. I've recommended Quantconnect for live algo trading to numerous people and the supported brokerages seem to be the biggest concern. People like to stick to what they know even if it doesn't benefit them in some cases.. I'll look forward to the developments in this regard!
