QUANTCONNECT COMMUNITY
Hi QC,
I have been searching through documentation and forums for the difference between the 2 methods and when to use SetUniverseSelection vs AddUniverseSelection. I haven't been able to find an answer. Perhaps I missed a link?
Could someone help me on the differences between them please?
Thanks in advance

Hi Bgrm1,
Short answer: we should use AddUniverseSelection().
Real answer: You could compare the source code of those two methods here. SetUniverseSelection() is the old way and we recommend to use AddUniverseSelection(). In the future, we will support Composite Universe Selection, where you may add multiple universe selection models with AddUniverseSelection().
Hope it helps.

Thanks Link! AddUniverseSelection it is.
