Williams Alligator Indicator: How to Day Trade with 2 Profitable Strategies

[@howdiranger3647]

During the video I set up my chart while watching. Then when you introduced the second strategy towards the end a short signal occurred on my chart for a nice profit. About an hour later there was another, a long winner. This simple strategy is promising and warrants back-testing. Thanks so much for sharing it.

[@kimnielsen9297]

I have tried the alligator several times without much luck. After seeing your video I added the ADX. Tested today on a paper account - 136 usd in profit in 35 minutes - account size 2000 and risk 3%. I am very pleased with that result 👍

I love how you break down complex trading concepts into simple, easy-to-understand terms. Your videos are a game-changer.

Geh... ... this is Gold, brother. Thank you. Just learned about the Alligator and your explanation nailed in the head.

[@lulakids6636]

sir to 2nd strategy, must use adx too? or just close price top red line for long position, thanks for reply🙏

[@AriesWarlock]

Interesting, thanks for the video!

[@TradingJournal1]

Cheers mate!

[@shanecorse-scott3632]

VERY GOOD MATE, WILL THE SAME SET UP WORK ON LOWER TIME CHART OR IS IT ONLY FOR ONE HOUR?.

[@irfanazim6696]

How do we know when we're entering and exiting a range? As price moves we may see a clear direction of the MAs before it whipsaws back down (meaning its still in a range)

We can also take trades on the basis of higher time frame trend and also include 200 Ema to increase the win rate of this strategy, can you suggest what wud be better 200 Ema or higher time frame trend to increase the win rate of this strategy? And yes big thanks from India have started profiting from ur previous strategies...

[@TradingJournal1]

Glad to hear that! Yes 200 EMA would help, I wouldn't look for a higher length. Feel free to test different timeframes

[@eliasassaf3405]

Hi Can we use these strategies on different time frame ?

[@TradingJournal1]

Yes, you can after backtesting

[@fantomghost6213]

Great video. What are the approximate win rates for these strategies?

[@TradingJournal1]

Thanks! I remember both were higher than %40. But I don't remember the exact numbers. So I will create a back-test video soon.

Nice.... Is the bar replay feature from tradingview free? Can i backtest like 5 years of data using it for free? Thanks man

[@TradingJournal1]

Yes, it is free in Tradingview. But I am not sure about the 5 years of data part.

what the different with 3EMA?

I can’t get my adx to look like yours. It wants a timeframe number

[@amgamg69]

does this work for options?

[@TradingJournal1]

You have to backtest it

How do I add the ADX on MT5 and getting the same view in this video?

[@TradingJournal1]

You can upload the code to MT4

When trading with fractals, should trader flip charts, 15M, 1H,4H,D1, all at once & see where support & resistance IS as shown by fractals on each frame--and if if it fits close to top/bottom of daily ADR, take that trade. Now 15M fractal level may not be robust(strength wise) enough--but 1H fractal is because to form 1H fractal, market could not penetrate THAT LEVEL IN 5 CANDLES WHICH IS 5 HOURS--and that is lot of data(strength).AND fractal on 1H chart is not just one man talking but line (support/resistance) drawn by millions of traders in those 5 hours. Just act on 1H fractal--and trade be in the direction of 4H/daily trend. I seek your wisdom ?

[@matthewkamau6743]

In that trade that lost, if you put the stop loss under the wick and not body of the candle, it would have been a successful trade

[@nishantbirari9300]

Thanks

[@arthurbates2665]

Here's something I noticed during your presentation of this strategy that seems to give better signals, if the trade is taken after a consolidation regardless of direction. So I put the TTM squeeze indicator on the chart and waited for the TTM squeeze. After the squeeze I waited to trade when the candle closed above the teeth as you taught it. I have not tested this 100 times as this is just an observation. So I don't know the win rate. If you have time you might test this and come up with a win rate. In the mean time I won't ask you to all the work so I'll test as well. If this is a good strategy please make a video for all to use. Nothing work's all the time. What I'm referring to here is the second entry method and not the first using adx.

[@TradingJournal1]

That's great mate, you have sharp eyes! And thank you for sharing. We both have to test it to see the win rate!

[@arthurbates2665]

Here's a thought on the alligator entry. Add the 200 ema back and only take trades in the trend direction I have been playing with this. My RR 2:1

[@TradingJournal1]

@@arthurbates2665 yes mate EMA usually improves the win rate, have you back-tested it?

[@arthurbates2665]

Not Yet

[@shivanandshivayogimath7044]

Is this only suited for 1 hr time frame?

[@TradingJournal1]

No timeframe does not make a huge difference in this strategy.

[@SmilingBambooForest-iy5qz]

Indicators follow price, before you see the signal it is too late 😅

[@shivanandshivayogimath7044]

In this video the time frame used was 1H. Can we use the same strategy on 15 mins and is there a need to alter ADX to 50 from 25? Please do reply...

[@TradingJournal1]

Yes you can change the timeframe, no need to alter the ADX, 25 is solid!
