    Alligator

    This technical indicator contains of three lines, which are Moving Averages with different parameters.
    The blue line: (chap) is a line of balance to the significant time period, which is used for building of the chart (13 period smoothed moving averages, shifted on 8 bars to the future.)
    The Red line: (teeth) is the line of balance for the significant time period, which is one step less (8 period smoothed moving average, shifted on 5 bars to the future);
    The Green line (lips) is the line of balance for the significant time period, which is one more step less (5 period smoothed moving average, shifted on 3 bars to the future).
    Interpretation: When the Jaw, the Teeth and the Lips are closed or intertwined, it means the Alligator is going to sleep or is asleep already. As it sleeps, it gets hungrier and hungrier the longer it will sleep, the hungrier it will wake up. The first thing it does after it wakes up is to open its mouth and yawn.
    Then the smell of food comes to its nostrils: flesh of a bull or flesh of a bear, and the Alligator starts to hunt it. Having eaten enough to feel quite full, the Alligator starts to lose the interest to the food/price (Balance Lines join together) this is the time to fix the profit.
    You should close all positions and wait until Alligator awakes again.
    The goals of this indicator are:
    - to give integrated way for monitoring of the moving of the market;
    - to represent a simple indicator to trade in the current trade only;
    - to create a protective way to save the money during the moving of the market limitet with the price channel.

    Money Flow Index (MFI)

    The Money Flow Index measures the amount of money flowing in and out of a security.
    It's a good measure of the strength of money flowing in and out of a security.
    It compares "positive money flow" to "negative money flow" to create an indicator that can be compared to price in order to identify the strength or weakness of a trend.
    - A divergence between price and MFI often signals an imminent reversal of the trend.
    - Readings below 20 on the scale are considered oversold (bullish).
    - Readings above 80 on the scale are considered overbought (bearish).
    When analyzing the MFI the following should be taken into account: divergences between indicator and price movement. If prices increase and MFI falls (or vice versa), the probability of price turning is very high. MFI values higher than 80 and lower than 20 signalizes respectively about potential peak or foundation of the market.

    Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)

    This indicator was generated by Gerald Appel as the difference between two exponentially smoothed averages (EMA).
    It’s one of the simplest and most reliable indicators available.
    Although there are three moving averages mentioned you will only see two lines one fast and one slow, if the faster signal line crosses above the slower line then a buy signal is generated and vice versa.
    There are three techniques commonly used to interpret the MACD:
    1) Crossovers, When the MACD falls below the Signal line, it is a bearish signal indicating that it may be time to sell.
    2) Conversely, when the MACD rises above the Signal line, the indicator gives a bullish signal, suggesting that the price of the security is likely to experience upward momentum.
    3) Divergence, when the security price moves counter to the MACD it signals the end of the current trend.
    4) Zero Line Crossover, A crossing of the MACD line up through zero (the centerline) is interpreted as bullish, or down through zero as bearish. Some analysts choose to buy or sell when the MACD goes above or below zero.
