I understand that we cannot download equities into our data library. How can we stream the data just as the browser version?

I set the configuration as so:

"environment": "backtesting-desktop", // "live-paper", "backtesting", "live-interactive", "live-interactive-iqfeed"

And it looks like I have to download the zip files to the ../Data folder. There are some example files already there for example 'AIG'. 

private Symbol _aig = QuantConnect.Symbol.Create("AIG", SecurityType.Equity, Market.USA); bool holdingARDMPosition = false; //string _symbol = "AIG"; BollingerBands _bb; RelativeStrengthIndex _rsi; AverageTrueRange _atr; ExponentialMovingAverage _ema; SimpleMovingAverage _sma; MovingAverageConvergenceDivergence _macd; decimal _price; /// <summary> /// Initialise the data and resolution required, as well as the cash and start-end dates for your algorithm. All algorithms must initialized. /// </summary> public override void Initialize() { SetStartDate(2013, 10, 07); //Set Start Date SetEndDate(2013, 10, 11); //Set End Date SetCash(100000); //Set Strategy Cash // Find more symbols here: http://quantconnect.com/data AddEquity("AIG", Resolution.Minute); //Set up Indicators: _bb = BB(_aig, 20, 1, MovingAverageType.Simple, Resolution.Minute); _rsi = RSI(_aig, 14, MovingAverageType.Simple, Resolution.Minute); _atr = ATR(_aig, 14, MovingAverageType.Simple, Resolution.Minute); _ema = EMA(_aig, 14, Resolution.Minute); _sma = SMA(_aig, 14, Resolution.Minute); _macd = MACD(_aig, 12, 26, 9, MovingAverageType.Simple, Resolution.Minute); }

 

 

But Can we just stream the data without having to point to this folder? Is there a configuration setting or something?

//"data-provider": "QuantConnect.Lean.Engine.DataFeeds.DefaultDataProvider", "data-provider": "QuantConnect.Lean.Engine.DataFeeds.ApiDataProvider",
