If I am going to use TD Ameritrade for my orders, is there a way to connect that to the Orders & Portfolio collections? Or should I create my own collections for this and ignore that part of the Algorithm Framework?
If there is a way to tie them together, is there any example?
thanks - dave

Hi Dave,
TD Ameritrade is currently not supported by QuantConnect, there is work being done on integrating it I believe but it is not yet available, sorry.
Here is a list of the supported brokerages.
Or did you mean something else here?

Hi David,
A quick addition to Mak's comment.
“a way to connect that to the Orders & Portfolio collections” and “should I create my own collections for this and ignore that part of the Algorithm Framework”
While you cannot live trade with TD (TD's API has not been integrated into LEAN) and while you cannot model TD out of the box (no TD fee model has been canned in a class in LEAN), you can:
I thought maybe that's what you meant.

The TDA connection is almost done thanks to an open-source contribution by @BMello. We're going to polish it to be production-ready and then add it to the platform.
Hacking up a python script is easy, but not compatible with what we offer =) We're a full professional-caliber quantitative trading platform. Many of the issues you'd eventually have with the script we've already solved 10x.

Jared Broad I am eagerly waiting for the TDA connection to go live. Anything you can do to expedite that is greatly appreciated. I am sure I am not alone in that request.
