it will probably make money, but this is the same as sp500 et al being public list of components. they know that showing their "secret" will influence the irrational market to folow suit, hence showing sp500 components will make more people buy into those and make sp500 even more profitable.

this can be an attempt at the same for the new generation. if your algo is making money and it can benefit from a mass adoption of the same strategy (or more likely they have a secret tweaked one that takes that more into account) why wouldn't they offer it in the open?
