Did you use Quantopian or Zipline to write the program? Are there any resources you'd reccommend for coding trading systems?
I've thought about paying a freelancer to help me out, but I also want an understanding of the processes so that I can adjust accordingly and make changes as I grow with the algorithm.
I haven't used Quantopian, but have looked into it and it is good. Gets rid of all the setup you need to take on. I coded my setup in pure Python using numpy/pandas/Quandl API.
The build vs outsource debate comes down to whether you think your time is better spent elsewhere instead of debugging.
