It can identify Bullish, Bearish and Sideways market pretty easily. Problem is, traders don't know how to use it effectively. Alligator has three lines:
1. Lips - Fastest Line
2. Teeth
3. Jaws - Slowest Line
William's Alligator is probably the most underrated indicator in moving average category.
Alligator follows the premise that market is sideways for 70% of the time and trending only 30% of the time.
This is where William's Alligator can be a great tool for traders.
It can identify Bullish, Bearish and Sideways market pretty easily. Problem is, traders don't know how to use it effectively. Alligator has three lines:
1. Lips - Fastest Line
2. Teeth
3. Jaws - Slowest Line
BUT this does not make it a tradeable indicator in practice. Here is what should be done.
Now, how to use it? with Basic TA and Indicator like MACD
1. As long as price is above Alligator, BANKNIFTY is bullish.
2. As long as MACD is trading above 0 line, BANKNIFTY is bullish.
3. Horizontal Lines are the only S&R.
4. CONGESTION is followed by TREND is followed by CONGESTION.
Bearish Alligator
1. MACD < Signal Line < 0 Line
2. Candle High < Alligator Lips (total body of candle outside alligator)
Trend Change
1. Candle Close > Alligator Jaws
1. Trend was bearish.
2. Candle Closed > Alligator Jaws = Trend Changing
According to TA, once trend is finished, price enters into congestion / sideways zone. Bullish / Bearish break depends upon break from this zone.
Rectangle here denotes congestion.
1. Candle Low > Alligator Lips
2. MACD > Signal Line > 0
In this image as price is moving up, candle is completely above and outside Alligator Lips, with MACD > Signal Line > 0 line denoting trend changing to bullish.
Note - Horizontal breaks are important.
--Even if price occasionally tries to change trend to downside on Alligator, as long as MACD > 0, bias is sideways bullish.
See how price went below alligator but MACD did not.

The entire discussion around Facebook’s disclosures of what happened in 2016 is very frustrating. No exec stopped any investigations, but there were a lot of heated discussions about what to publish and when.
In the spring and summer of 2016, as reported by the Times, activity we traced to GRU was reported to the FBI. This was the standard model of interaction companies used for nation-state attacks against likely US targeted.
In the Spring of 2017, after a deep dive into the Fake News phenomena, the security team wanted to publish an update that covered what we had learned. At this point, we didn’t have any advertising content or the big IRA cluster, but we did know about the GRU model.
This report when through dozens of edits as different equities were represented. I did not have any meetings with Sheryl on the paper, but I can’t speak to whether she was in the loop with my higher-ups.
In the end, the difficult question of attribution was settled by us pointing to the DNI report instead of saying Russia or GRU directly. In my pre-briefs with members of Congress, I made it clear that we believed this action was GRU.
The story doesn\u2019t say you were told not to... it says you did so without approval and they tried to obfuscate what you found. Is that true?
