Phsst: no...I have an interest in "real world trading". I work
systems all the time and occasionally believe I have enough confidence
in them to try trading them. I have invested month and months in
several systems wherein all I did was learn the perils of
overoptimization.
I suspect there are tons (as in lots) of people who are VERY interested
in this topic, while at the same time perhaps believe they have little
to contribute. So they do not say anything because then someone will
say "Well, where is YOUR real world system to share". There may even be
an implied expectation: if you publish a system, it should work. Maybe
folks' confidence in this is not what it should be to allow them to show
their fragile stuff.

Fred,
Think about it. You're the only one who has shown any interest at all
in the subject of Real World Trading using Amibroker... and you don't
trade stocks! Go figure ;-)
