Hi,
Thanks for your question!
Basically, Alphien Studio is the environment where you do your research and you develop your strategies, whereas Notebooks are used to document and to submit your solution to the Alphathon.
In both environment, you can load all Alphien’s Quantitative Library (Qlib) by calling the function .sourceQlib(), so all your code that works in Alphien Studio will work in notebooks.
If you want to discuss specific use cases, you can contact us on Alphachat!
