Hey. I'm interested in coding a silly automatic trading algorithm just to learn the process, but before I even do that, I want to know where would be most worthwhile to learn that process.
I have an account at FXCM and noticed their Marketscope 2.0 has a strategies section (coded in Lua or some unknown language). But they also offer Strategy Trader for free (coded in c#, a large plus to any real coder).
So I'm interested in knowing which of the two I should pursue or if there are other options that are free better than those two. Post up comparisons/advantages/disadvantages please! You can also bring up platforms that cost money, but only mention it for completeness, try to focus on the free ones first.
