"...You don't need to share your code... maybe a little encouragement as to where you found your best advice or your favorite published indicator that you like to use...."
JMO, but I don't see how a trader/investor can have an "edge" over anyone else using any published indicators. Sort of like reading about a stock idea on the front page of your morning paper: If everybody knows about it, how valuable is the tip?:) AB has done two things for me: First, it's allowed me to subject published indicators (and the "new" indicators/methods of assorted gurus) to a fair test. The results were disappointing, but finding out what doesn't work is also a part of research. The second and more important thing that AB has done for me is allow me to test data (and data combinations) that aren't so easily accessible as to make them worthless. A recent example is the recession probability indicator: If you know how likely/unlikely recession is, you also know how likely/unlikely a major stock market correction (-15% or more) is going to be. That tells you whether you should be looking for good buying opportunities or good shorting opportunities during any corrections. Another example of what can be done with AB is to calculate not only general market valuation (like SP500 PE, by using AB to import SP500 EPS), but also "real" (after-inflation) earnings (by using AB to import CPI-U inflation data). Capabilities like these in AB have allowed me to make my most valuable breakthroughs.
