How do I load a Slice object in Research
Tried
%matplotlib inline
# Imports
# added this in addition to all other imports
from QuantConnect.Lean.Engine.DataFeeds import TimeSlice
# Create an instance. this works fine
qb = QuantBook()
spy = qb.AddEquity("SPY")
slice = TimeSlice()
print hasattr(slice,"QuoteBars")
Can anybody help?
Also is there a way to create an empty Research page without all the default data at startup.? Erasing all that stuff takes time and if I leave it it distracts others looking at the code.
Thanks

Thanks Serge; we're making a better landing page for the research environment shortly.

Hi Sam,
We made a cleaner landing page for the Research Environment, but since it isn't a backtesting environment it won't support Slice objects. Its intended use is to download, examine, transform, and analyze data so that one can better understand that data when implementing a backtest.
