My Trading Algorithm requires real time options chain data

Hello All,

I am new to quantopian. I think I have a good basis for a strong trading algorithm. This involves accessing realtime options chain data for a particular stock symbol. I understand that xignite.com provides realtime options data on a subscription basis where the output provided is in json format. Will I be able to use this json data in my python code in quantopian?

I am also looking for partners (coders) who would be willing to work with me on this.

Thanks

Depending on what you want to do with it and how you want to use.

look into fetcher. I think you can upload data as csv for alg to use.
