I know this may seem like not a thing to ask in this forum but I think it&#x27;s the PERFECT place to ask. A bunch of technically apt people seem like the perfect place to pose this.
What platforms for stocks and options do you all see as &quot;the best&quot;? Low cost, maybe has a scripting language built in. Trustworthiness. 
What resources should I gather together and learn?
What kind of pitfalls should I look out for?
This seems like the perfect system to take apart and learn about.
