Can anyone give examples of a set of rules they have tested, just for curiosity?

for oil. if the price goes through a whole number (ie. 86.00) fade it for a few cents

i used to monitor for one lot best bid/offer orders and hit them thinking that it was a retail order.

You do this automated? That must generate thousands of order per day.

used to be automated. but the whole number one is just the first time it crosses... trying to get stops.

I dont run either anymore. Do you really expect someone to tell you something that works?

No, nothing that isn't already in the public domain. However, arent there still some strategies that work that are in the public domain? For example some simple moving averages and stuff like that?

An old trend following system:

Buy if close > highest close over the past n bars

Trail a sell stop at 2.5 * the 14 bar average true range
