It would be great if we can get data for back-testing strategies on Indian stocks as well before this workshop is conducted. Still, it will be a great platform for all the algo-trading enthusiasts.

Cheers!

Can you clarify whether India dataset and strategies/examples be discussed on these workshops?

Quantopian only provides US Equity and Futures Data.
You can use Quantopian Zipline for Backtesting and Analyzing your custom Datasets.

Hi Harkishan,
Good news - Quantopian is no longer exclusively US. We currently provide the ability to research equities in a Notebook using data from 26 countries (as of January, 2019), including India. See our announcement post for more details on how to research with global equities data.

Thanks
