QUANTCONNECT COMMUNITY
hello,
There are two options when going Live with Interactive Brokers.
Either use IB subscribed data or use Quantconnect brokerage data. How much of a difference I may expect if I am doing Swing trading with portfolio rebalancing only happening once a month?
I do not need tick based data for my algo.
Thank you,
Ray

Hi Ray,
There will not be much of a difference in the price data because QuantConnect's data comes directly from the exchange. The algorithms should be robust enough to not be sensible to small price differences.
Keep in mind, universe selection is only possible using the QuantConnect data feed. Learn more about data feeds in the live trading documentation.
Best
