Hi,
I have an option trading strategy that I want to implement on Quant Connect. Before I invest time on this, I would appreciate if someone could answer following:
1. Is option data available?
2. Can I query historic option data? Say for example past 30 day prices?
3. Do you provide implied vol data?
- Reverter
Vol reverter
Futher to above, I want to implement strategy in python. Are following packages available?
1. sklearn
2. statsmodels

Hi Vol; Currently only LEAN supports options backtesting and but we are preparing the website to support it now. We don't have an ETA at this time as its an enormous amount of data! :)
We're using iron python which doesn't have a lot of the typical python libraries but Alex is working on adding them.
