Just throwing ideas, haven't actually build one yet.
Any brokers with API support (e.g. Ib or LS) you could set up web services (e.g. using RESTful so can be used as your APIs) in the cloud which can make calls to your broker. Setup authentication/authorization services and may be even different trading algos setup in the backend.

I see this question over and over and my answer is (over and over)...
Just jump in with NinjaTrader. Download to your desktop, download Market Replay data if you don't have a data provider, and build a strategy using the Strategy Wizard, get good enough to modify the C# code it generates. Backtest then forward/paper test, etc.
Lots of work. See the NinjaTrader website for video tutorials.

...yeah and lock into all the Ninja T. specific scripts (bars, ticks, event handlers, base classes,...) and look forward to getting completely screwed over once you go live trading, because NT is utterly incompetent when it comes to managing positions and orders in live trading environments. I thought this was a well-known fact established already years ago and is re-emphasized by hundreds of users with every new version they pump out and DO NOT solve even the most elementary problems of their OMS and PMS.
Good luck!!!

Don't know if it helps you, but just write the thing from the ground up using C++. The parts you don't have, integrate with 3rd party utilities. The parts that you do have, make them flexible. Keep moving. Don't expect your initial setup to be great, just keep building a piece at a time, and don't be surprised if the version you want takes you SEVERAL YEARS to get right.
