Help with alligator configuration
-
Hello,
Can someone help me to create a really simple EA? It's literally buy when alligator crosses upwards and sell when it crosses downwards.
I have though of just doing it with MA's, but it wouldnt make sense to have the indicator integrated in the program.Thank you.

Alligator is like multiple MAs and it's also integrated in MetaTrader. I think it will be similar, but with more Condition blocks depending on what crosses what.

So you don't actually use the alligator indicator? I mean you don't compare the alligator to anything? You only compare the three MAs?

I think the rule is to have green>red>blue or green<red<blue, or maybe something like this: http://fxdreema.com/shared/XtQK7Fhwc

Aaaaaahaaa that's exactly right! Didn't know you could do the mode "thing" with alligator.
Thanks that's perfect! -
Also i can suggest the block "Once per bar", if needed. It adds different behaviour when it is placed before or after the conditions. You know, indicators seems very simple until you start to think how to add them into an EA
You think there is only one way to use it and then you realize that there are more ways than you wanted 
Well, this is in case you work on the current candle.
