I want my code to generate trade ideas for me. It could be as simple as sending them to a google sheets document. I have read previous answers from Jared stating that “data cannot leave our system”. But this is not your data leaving the system, this is a trade idea generated by my algo which I want to consume externally for analysis. Why is this locked down and not an option?

QuantConnect has a policy that restricts data from leaving their system to maintain security and integrity. This policy applies even to trade ideas generated by your algorithm. While it might seem that these are not raw data but rather processed insights, the platform treats them similarly to ensure compliance with their data handling standards. However, QuantConnect provides features like signal exports to third-party services, which can be used to share signals with external platforms in a controlled manner. This allows for some level of integration with external systems while adhering to their data policies.

If I'm not wrong, if you're not exporting Quantconnect's actual data (price data etc.), you could just set up your resulting signals to be sent out as notifications (like: SPY - LONG - TARGET $550). Use a webhook or email and automatically put that into your google sheet somehow.
