ProRealtime:
http://www.prorealtime.com/en/

It’s written in Java so it’s cross platform. For the class I’m teaching, I base a project on modeling & backtesting in prorealtime. They have a rudimentary gridsearch optimizer and a decently comprehensive equity database. They have their own programming language but a fluent programmer can pick it up in < 1 hour. However, you do get what you pay for and it’s only useful for testing a price based model, you won’t be able to incorporate any outside global variables or your external datastream.

Amibroker !!

Hi i there My name is Bryan Downing. I am part of a company called QuantLabs.Net This is specifically a company with a high profile blog about technology, trading, financial, investment, quant, etc. It posts things on how to do job interviews with large companies like Morgan Stanley, Bloomberg, Citibank, and IBM. It also posts different unique tips and tricks on Java, C++, or C programming. It posts about different techniques in learning about Matlab and building models or strategies. There is a lot here if you are into venturing into the financial world like quant or technical analysis. It also discusses the future generation of trading and programming Specialties: C++, Java, C#, Matlab, quant, models, strategies, technical analysis, linux, windows P.S. I have been known to be the worst typist. Do not be offended by it as I like to bang stuff out and put priorty of what I do over typing. Maybe one day I can get a full time copy editor to help out. Do note I prefer videos as they are much easier to produce so check out my many video at youtube.com/quantlabs
