Hey Devrant friends!, i really hope everyone is doing very well today, and that also their week is treating them very well!, i'd like to say to everyone here i'm very sorry for my level of activity within the community.

Approximately one month ago on the 21/01/2019 i lost my best friend and fellow companion for the last 13 and a half years, therefore things have been quite difficult emotionally and just overall :-( though with time things should only get better, (I'm positive) .

Now to more of a positive part of my post :'D, i'd love to ask my fellow developers the following question, if you could help me out i'd be very much grateful!, so for awhile now i had a hobby of messing around with the stock market, and have been re-searching a specific field.

That would be investment-banks such as JP.Morgan, Morgan Stanley etc. What sort of languages would they be using, currently I've been using , C#,C++,Java, Py(learning) :'D, though im not so sure if its a good idea to be juggling so many languages at once, Also i'd love to know do they have opportunities in which allow students like myself to visit such places and see the technology behind the trading and what developers use? i'm really curious, Also are there such positions in which developers work with traders? not really 'quant' type positions, developers who work in the section?.

Friends, i'd like to thank you very much for reading my post, i know it may be quite lengthy and most likely all over the place (im sorry!) , i'm very grateful you have taken the time to do so :-), i really appreciate it!.

I really wish everyone the absolute best <3.

Thank you
Milo <3

    @cursee @KingMilo R might be used by those guys but probably not in a mostly development role since it's for statistical analysis, there's plenty of investment banks/hedge fund sorts in the UK who are using C# though.

    @BashouT thank you very much!, though I wonder, why c#?

    @KingMilo happy to help and I were to make an educated guess I'd say Microsoft give enterprise support to those who pay and banks etc can pay, also C# won't be vanishing anytime soon, tonnes of libraries, very well documented, established and has a tonne of uses. Many reasons, I'd imagine there's other languages that could be used but they would be mine personally

    @KingMilo I wouldn't really know too much on the python front sorry. I mean there are banks here that still require PASCAL from time to time, so I'm sure some must use a bit of everything 🙂
