Open Source Trading Automation Frameworks?

Instead of open source and having to deal unknown bugs, why not make use of some commercial charting software. For example Ninjatrader support C# for its automation script. By the way, the free version does support live trading. Personally, I am using Amibroker. It has customized automation script(AFL) and it also has a python plugin.

I just have a simple strategy for day trading a future and would like to trade it via a broker API.
I do not mind writing the code to do the actual calls to the broker API but could use a general code framework to build on.

https://www.lean.io/ looks very interesting.

The Automated Trading Topic. has some good discussions too.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I would prefer to have a lightweight implantation if possible in which I have the entire source code. This looks achievable with lean.io and some others.
However if that proves impossible then I will definitely look at some of the alternatives tied to comprehensive commercial products.
