I'm with Phil on the Keltner issue, but just for fun, I unearthed
a Keltner system I wrote some 6 years ago and haven't looked at
since. The results aren't that much different from those posted
earlier. Problem is the time period is way too short. Over longer 
periods of time, results are more like break even with huge drawdowns.

This system does not use built in stops. If you use those, it's almost
perfect ;-) Logic is to look for channel turns (all lines vs 3 bars ago 
plus a couple points).
