Another breakout system...

Here's another breakout system created by Tushar Chande...it was printed in a
previous issue of Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities. I find it to
be very useful and accurate. If some one had previously posted this, sorry to
waste your invaluable time.

{user Function called Arn_up}
Inputs: R(Numeric);
Arn_up=100*((R-NthHighestBar(1,High,R))/R);

{userFunction called Arn_dn}
Inputs:R(Numeric);
Arn_dn=100*((R-NthLowestBar(!,High,R))/R);

{system: Aroon}
Inputs: R(21);

if Arn_up(R) crosses above Arn_dn(R) then buy 1 contract at close;
If Arn_dn(R) crosses below Arn_dn(R) then sell 1 contract at close;

Notes: it is effective for intrady and end of day...it is one of the best
simple ssystem I've ever seen. But that's my opinion. What are yours?

in slippage and $12,000 in margin per contract per round turn.
