The key to Del's system is constructing a price channel consisting of a 10-day moving average of daily high prices and an 8-day moving average of daily low prices. When the current day's closing price closes above this channel, buy at close. When the current day's closing price closes below the channel, sell short at close. The trades are closed when SPY closes within its price channel.
This system can be followed with Zignals Stock Charts.
With Zignals Stock Charts you can set moving averages using the open, close, high or low of the day. So for the above example we can set a 10-day MA for the highs and an 8-day MA for the lows. For MSFT the chart looked like this:

...for another trading system that is so bad that it's promising
Except when it kills ;)
