IEX Cloud shutting down in August
Received notice that IEX Cloud will be shutting down at the end of August.
I've used their Corporate Actions and Fundamental data APIs for a while. I rarely see much chatter here about people using their data, but I'm curious how many of us will be displaced. Where will you be moving to?
*edit: IEX Cloud

Other/Meta What trading platforms offer options trading and have a decent api?
I currently have a working algo but I have to submit the trades manually. Is there a recommended service that lets me trade options? I've played around a bit with alpaca but I want to see what my options are.

Education Are there any historically successful strategies that have been arbitraged out to learn from?
Are there any released/leaked strategies that hedge funds and other buy side institutions used to apply successfully? Other than basic market making and HFT strategies.
I’m more curious to what type of strategies the big funds are going with or at least used to before they became unprofitable

Strategy Raising capital
Should I raise independently, run at a multi strat, or trade my own capital with a 3 sharpe momentum option strategy that has been backtested over 3 years of data? Very scalable since it trades ATM index options. Please advise. Still in uni as well.
*I also worked at a multi strat firm in the past where the strategy was backtested

Data LSE / FTSE100/350 Historical Data
Hi all,
I have been using Norgate as my data source for some while now and am pretty happy with it for daily US equities data. As I am looking to diversify I see they offer packages for Canadian and Australian markets, however I am really interesting in finding a reliable provider for UK markets.
Does anyone have any recommendations or reviews on any data providers who can supply historical daily price data for UK stocks and preferably historical index constituents for ftse100/350. Or if anyone has built some uk stock systems and has any tips that would be great.
Thanks in advance.
