Hi allansn,
That would be Howard Bandy, I believe.
Also, one could write a pretty interesting book on system
development, particularly highlighting the necessary metrics the
system would need to display to indicate effectiveness, and necessary
testing methodology that would verify that the metrics were really
there -- without ever claiming to have found a tradable system.
Of course, it would be even *more* interesting to see a great system
with audited broker statements. ^_^ But it wouldn't be *necessary* to
have even one tradable system to write a very interesting book on the
subject of designing them and testing them.
