StockSharp, anybody worked with this?

[mvanrijnen 127]

It's about: GitHub - StockSharp/StockSharp: Algorithmic trading and quantitative trading open source platform to develop trading robots (stock markets, forex, crypto, bitcoins, and options).

 

I want (maybe) use it for a custom trading bot,  but it's Russian, so people heard about this, can it be trusted?

Yes, of course.

I think all major hackers put russian and chinese Unicode strings in their code, but in reality they live in in San Francisco, Redmont and Cupertino

 

But jokes aside, why don't you look into the sources, to find something suspicious ?

Hackers are usually very eager to leave their tags anywhere.

Better question, anyone knows a framework like this for Delphi ?

Of course absolutely no. Evil Russian hackers will drain all of your bitcoins in seconds just between faking US votes and drinking vodka with their bears

Hi!

 

I don't know that any specific repo can be trusted when it comes to BTC etc. without intense static analysis be it Russian or not. 

Also keep in mind that GitHub itself has been subject to a mining attack whereby a pretend-NodeJS instance was available and executed which would perform crypto mining leveraging GitHub servers, so... kinda shady the whole thing whoever does it. 

But this library is developed in C# so static analysis is an option and I think there are several products that can do it. 

 

Static Analysis is your first line of defense, especially if you can establish "shady patterns" to look for. 

 

I am muchly more worried about situations where, say, the repo is on Russian/Chinese servers and with Internet-related laws that are questionable at least, if not downright awful. 

 

Static analysis is your friend, mate, use it!
