I feel that the results will not continue. My opinion is traders should not pursue automation as a means to be successful in trading. Too many are lured in by false hopes and cherry picked charts. Too many believe just because a strategy made $900 a month in the past means it will in the future. Few understand backtesting and curve fitting. Fewer still understand proper forward testing. In the end, most people I've met that pursue automation do so because they are either lazy or foolish ("I just want a strategy that can earn $1,000 a month with low risk"), or are trying to find a short cut for their own pitfalls in their own discretionary trading (ie: failure to take responsibility for their actions, wanting to place blame elsewhere).
LOL, OK. Interesting testing methodology to not consider results you don't like, I'm not sure why else you would throw my result out
Last, I believe you failed to mention some important considerations on determining a price. How long as this vendor been in business? How many prior strategies has he produced that have a proven track record? What is his reputation like? These should weigh heavily in anyones decision in determining a fair value if they decide they are willing to pay more than $0 for it.
I believe your response is based on a bias you have from past experiences with your own failed ATS. If you can put that behind you or explain why this is worth $0, then I'll revist.
