  1. QuantConnect/Lean: QuantConnect/Lean iş biraz daha ciddileşince bakılabilecek repo aynı engine içinde: research backtest paper/live trading tarafını bir araya getiriyor equity, options, futures, forex, crypto gibi farklı marketleri desteklemesi de güzel “notebookta çalışan şey live’a nasıl gider?” sorusunun araçlarından biri

    Top 10 Trading Repositories on GitHub (October 2026 Update) Every trading platform you can buy is competing with something free on GitHub. These are the ten open-source repositories actually worth your weekend — ranked by maintenance, documentation, honesty about performance and live-trading support, not by stars alone. Star counts, licences, release dates and last-commit dates are all live as of October 2026. ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 The best trading software is free 00:47 How we ranked 17 repositories (the five-point test) 01:30 #10 FinRL — deep reinforcement learning for trading 02:17 #09 Hummingbot — market making and execution 03:01 #08 LEAN Engine — QuantConnect's institutional engine 03:43 #07 yfinance — the market data layer 04:25 #06 NautilusTrader — Rust core, Python API 05:07 #05 CCXT — one API for 100+ exchanges 05:53 #04 VeighNa (vnpy) — full platform with an ML module 06:40 #03 Qlib — Microsoft's AI quant research platform 07:25 #02 freqtrade — the retail crypto bot standard 08:15 #01 OpenBB — the biggest finance repo on GitHub 09:03 The 2026 open-source stack (how they fit together) 09:49 Rules before you clone anything 🔗 ALL TEN REPOSITORIES 1. OpenBB — 74.0k stars · Apache-2.0 — OpenBB-finance/OpenBB 2. freqtrade — 55.2k stars · GPL-3.0 — freqtrade/freqtrade 3. Qlib — 49.2k stars · MIT — microsoft/qlib 4. VeighNa (vnpy) — 45.8k stars · MIT — vnpy/vnpy 5. CCXT — 44.3k stars · MIT — ccxt/ccxt 6. NautilusTrader — 29.8k stars · LGPL-3.0 — nautechsystems/nautilus_trader 7. yfinance — 25.5k stars · Apache-2.0 — ranaroussi/yfinance 8. LEAN Engine — 21.9k stars · Apache-2.0 — QuantConnect/Lean 9. Hummingbot — 20.4k stars · Apache-2.0 — hummingbot/hummingbot 10. FinRL — 16.6k stars · MIT — AI4Finance-Foundation/FinRL ❌ WHAT DID NOT MAKE IT backtrader (23.4k stars) still has not been touched since April 2023, so it is out despite the star count. Indicator and backtesting libraries — TA-Lib, vectorbt, jesse, StockSharp — are honourable mentions rather than full systems. 🧪 HOW WE RANKED THEM 1. Is it maintained? (last commit + release cadence — this alone removed a famous library) 2. Can you run it this weekend? (install docs, Docker, a tutorial that ends in a working strategy) 3. Is it honest about performance? (fees and slippage modelled, overfitting warnings in the docs) 4. Does it trade live, or is it a research toy? 5. Is there a community behind it? (contributors, merged PRs, answered issues) ⚠️ THREE RULES BEFORE YOU CLONE 1. Backtests lie by default — fees, slippage, look-ahead bias and overfitting. Test on data your model has never seen. 2. Paper trade first. Freqtrade's own docs say dry-run for a month; that applies to every repo here. 3. Check the licence before you build a business on it. These range from MIT and Apache to GPL and LGPL. Nothing in this video is financial advice. These are educational, open-source tools and most of them can lose money quickly.
