Since I'm not at the advanced level, I have general knowledge of HFT. But I'm sure implementing such Software would require a deep understanding of them and complex maths

Some people say that HFT is about small optimizations and avoiding copies. You can do that if you have a deep knowledge of C++.

Or try something like QuantLib, it is a tradings' library that I used aeons ago in some stock market company. https://www.quantlib.org/

They have a book too https://www.quantlibguide.com/A%20taste%20of%20QuantLib.html and Python bindings.
