A thing about strategies, if it is good (even for a particular set of circumstances), if it is leveraged by other traders, it become less impactful

if my strategy is good, could you confirm that it will not be copied by anybody? (not that I have something that I think is good!)

Yes. Your data is your own and would not be accessed/viewed/used or copied by other traders. It's entirely optional if you want to share your strategy, and you don't have to include the code.

Your point is valid. If enough people leverage a strategy the edge will diminish. As it is, it would be difficult to find any real edge using price/volume alone that would scale to a meaningful size.
