If you're into forex/CFD/futures rather than stocks, you might want to take a look at Metatrader. It's free, it is very widely used and it comes with its own C-based programming language, MQL4.

I recommend this as a very hands-on way to learn technical trading. http://www.metaquotes.net/ http://www.metaquotes.net/ http://www.mql4.com/ http://www.mql4.com/
