Bill Williams introduced the Alligator which is a system that uses three displaced moving averages to isolate market trends. Bill Williams is the author of several trading books that touches on the. Paint Buckets Game. The Alligator consists of the following: • 13-period moving average displaced by 8 periods into the future (blue) • 8-period moving average displaced by 5 periods into the future (red) • 5-period moving average displaced by 3 periods into the future (green) In our review, we will use the Alligator to point us in the right direction, before entering the trade with a two-bar reversal.

This is my variant of using the Alligator. Bill Williams uses a host of trading tools including Alligator, Awesome Oscillator, Acceleration/Deceleration, Fractals and Market Facilitation Index. If you want to use the Alligator with these indicators, refer to for more information.
