02:27[00:01] course, I will explain one of the available strategies called the available strategies called the Alligator strategy. Pay close attention because this strategy is the best and most effective, and it's the one we use most frequently
[00:14] in daily trading. The explanation will be here, so focus carefully and let's begin. When you first open the application, it will look like this. All you have to do is click on the three lines at the bottom right and then click on the second option. You will see many indicators, including the Alligator, the
[00:29] excellent Cryptogram, MACD, and so on. All we have to do is click on the word " Alligator" and confirm immediately. When we click on " Alligator" and confirm, three lines will appear on the indicator: one red, one blue, and one purple. We go back and click here, then go to the
[00:45] second option and add something called MACD, which is below Cryptogram. After adding it, change the blue color to white and confirm. Another indicator will appear below, which is a
[00:57] Another indicator will appear below, which is a white indicator with red lines, green squares, and red squares. Then we go back to the indicators, select the Stop and Reverse indicator, and confirm it. That's how we activate three
[01:11] indicators that will help us analyze the market. So, we've finished the first step, which is activating the strategy. Now I'll explain the strategy to you. Pay close attention, and if you don't understand, rewatch the video. Now, to know if the market is going up or down, and based on
[01:25] that, we can place a buy or sell order. First, we'll observe the lines in the middle: the red, blue, and purple lines. When they are open and falling, and the purple line is at the bottom, and the white line is below the red line, it means the market is going down.
[01:41] When the purple line is at its highest point and the lines are open and rising, like now (if you notice, they're rising and open), it means the market is going up. So, there's an means the market is going up. So, there's an inverse relationship between buying and selling. For selling,
[01:56] if the indicator falls below the red line, we win the trade; if it goes up, we lose. For buying, if the indicator falls below, we lose; if it goes up, we break even. So, you... To know where the market is headed, all you have to do is focus on the three lines in the middle and see if they are open
[02:12] and heading in the right direction. If they are open and heading upwards, it means the market is rising, and we should place a buy order. If, as you can see here, the purple line is down and the white line is also down, it means the market is falling, and we should place a sell order at that moment. If you pay attention, the
[02:27] white line crosses the red line and goes up. So what do we do now? I enter a bullish trade. Now I will buy $500 and see how much we can profit from this trade. You see, I applied the strategy to you. The indicators opened upwards, and
[02:44] I immediately placed a buy order for $500, earning $935. Of course, what you don't understand is that the demo account will be in dollars, and the real account will be in Saudi Riyals. So, you see now the indicator is open upwards, with three lines: the purple line is at the top and going upwards. This is where we
[03:01] lines: the purple line is at the top and going upwards. This is where we buy. The white line is also below, above the red line, and heading upwards. As you can see, this is the second I make a trade and win, so always keep this rule in mind: if the indicators in the middle are open and pointing downwards, and the white line is below the
[03:14] and pointing downwards, and the white line is below the red line, then we make sell trades because the market is down. Conversely, if the indicators are open and pointing upwards, and the purple line is at its highest point, and the white line is above the red line, then we make buy trades because the market is rising. This strategy is called the
[03:29] Alligator Strategy. We use it for trades that last 10-15 seconds at most. This is the first 10-15 seconds at most. This is the first strategy we have. Continue watching the course videos on Telegram to see the other strategies.
