alternative-data

alternative-data is an Investment analysis & markets skill for AI agents, published by QuantConnect in the Documentation repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates alternative-data D (68/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Use when subscribing to a QuantConnect/LEAN alternative-data class via `add_data(<AltClass>, symbol)` and reading the result from `slice` in `on_data`. Triggers — "is this dataset a list or single point per bar", "why does iterating slice[dataset_symbol] fail", "why does .property error on a Quiver/RegAlytics/EODHDEconomicEvents value", missing-attribute errors after `slice[dataset_symbol]`. Skip when — the dataset is a universe (use alternative-data-universes), Morningstar fundamentals, ETF constituents, or the price feed comes through `add_equity` / `add_option` instead of `add_data`.
