i asked the author where did he source his data, his reply was "i scraped data"
how can you scrape pricing data? not every data in this is on public domain, otherwise there would be no Bloombergs, CapitalIQs selling data for millions(sure they're overrated and overpriced but still!). Or in other words, if he is right - he can sell data and make millions. no need of looking for an investment strategy. just my skeptical side saying :)
you need clean data to accurately test ideas. for instance getting tick data is quite expensive. most universities have free access to Bloomberg, CapitalIQ etc. datasets the reason professors can test and also the reason some smart guys in the industry work for university on the side
