BUY:
Uptrend: Alligator lines clearly separated and untangled lined from top to bottom: green, red, blue. We will take only long trades.

Fakeout signal: Price penetrating bottom tunnel boundary (support) only to close back within tunnel.
Once ii closes back within the tunnel we enter the trade long. Tight stop loss is placed at the low reached in fakeout.
We wait for price to penetrate upper boundary (resistance) and create a valid breakout – candle closing above the resistance. We enter long once again.
Stop loss placement. Once we enter the second, breakout position stop loss is placed approximately in the middle of the tunnel. Calculate its positions so in case of invalid breakout both positions will be closed in break even. (Profits protected from fakout position will equal loss reached by invalid breakout).
Full take profit equals max width of the range measured from breakout entry. Apply on both positions.
SELL:
