Raising capital on different platforms. Ideas?

API Seeking Help Getting Started Tools and Tips Research

Hi guys! I need a piece of advice on different platforms. I have several good algos developed on TradeStation and I think it's a good time to raise some money. I'm sure in my algos and mostly search for success fee, so suscription-based platforms as ZuluTrade or MetaTrader do not work for me. I found 4 more or less suitable platforms:
1. Quantopian (some questions arise whether anyone earned with Quantopian at all, no success stories found so far).
2. Quantconnect (seems expensive and no success stories as well, allocation seems non-transparent).
3. Quantiacs (too much time waiting for your algo to win a contest and if it doesn’t, you won't get anything even though it's still good).
4. Tradingene (kinda raw platform and I know only one person who launched his algos there, said they plan to open it to public, but that is not for sure).

Can you give me some feedback about quantopian and other platforms you used? Where are the best success fee and where you can raise money easier? Any ideas?

Thank guys 🙏

https://trade.collective2.com may be what you are looking for.

Also https://fundseeder.com to establish record of your trading.

And of course you can attempt to persuade private investors to invest in your algorithm. Message and I'll be happy to give it a look.

Thank you, guys!
I've visited all 3 platforms that you advised but they do not exatly match my expectations - Unhetched only offers joining Waitlist, Collective2 seems a better option, the main question is how to stand out (and it seems that the majority of strategies are not algotrading), but I will see how I can work with it.

Does anyone have any experience working on the platforms that I mentioned? Q?
