I’d start with search queries like “algorithmic trading {languages,software}” and figure out which language your potential users are using. E.g. quick search shows that java/c++ are used in HFT, while python is used to quickly test ideas. Also check if your code may be ported to trading platforms, used by people who are not into full-blown programming and/or wheel reinvention. Or if it exists there already.

Good point. Unfortunately, python and c++ are out of consideration. That said, going with Rust will allow to create 'wrapper' for higher level languages. I guess this should be another metric where Rust wins. Edit: Just found Py4J and it seems even easier here.
