That sounds accurate that most money making strategies are based off simple logic and observations. Seems people are blindly impressed by ML and convolutional neural networks, even if they do not yield any impressive results.

I built system to determine which fundamental or technical factors have the most influence over a stock price. It required a fair amount of manual tinkering and sample runs to eliminate variance. The system itself is not that complex but it works. When I have demo'd it in a interview usually the interviewers are not that impressed... they are expecting that the system must be very complicated to have any results.
