The offered strategies are based on the same idea, which is to detect the
extreme imbalances in the exchange limit order book and to enter the
position when this happens. When the balance returns to normal range, the
position is closed. The difference with the "paid" strategies is that they
use improved methodology of such detection, and are carefully optimized,
backtested, and forward tested. I trade all 14 of them in real time, every
day. My live results from late October 2010 can be seen here:

There are now 14 instead of 11, I updated the page:

The intent is diversification across different optimization parameters,
short and long bias, and time frames.

I periodically re-optimize my strategies to let them evolve with the
market. The results are shown for the backtest period from October 2010 to
December 2012.
