Wait the initial move finish
on first pullback place large sell and buy order
once price come back close the hedge positions and wait for the gap to close 50%
then sell half or more rest when its feel right

Step 20: $2560-$5120 (Call it $5000 to make it easier)

If price stay strong, i could pass step 20 with this trade.

i always risk 2% and expect 2-3% reward ... no matter what size .. always the same

sometimes in asia session i buy/sell 5lot because i just after 5 pip
profit is the same .. small pips to risk .. small way to go .. same result if go for big swings

You can use any time frame and you can use your own entry point, take profit and stop loss.
The way that i use this alligator ,is to wait for green and red to be below blue and gren to be below red for short.
Risky , you could fail and kill your account.
so find a way that is good for you.
what could you do to get a bete entry and mm?
try weekly to get less false signals and demo the idea. or start live very small.

the entry part is simple, but how to exit ?
as the exit is where we make the $$ .. entry is not so serious .. and aligator is pretty simple ...

i keep going over charts .. but have not found a good exit trigger yet

You can use a Trailing Stop. Sure you can miss some pips, but my trading philosophy is "Better to have 100 Pips in my account than nothing"

true .. 50% of somethings is better than 100% of nothing !
i do the same in my trading .. i don't care for the large moves .. prefer to get safely a few pips here and there

Nice one... but i was looking at your pic and i still don't understand your entries.
In the pic (the black chart were shows your trades), all 3 lines are going down, but still you decided to Buy. Can you explain why? Also, why do you open 6 orders?

Keep the good trading!

beacause i got the bad habit of not accepting my losses trades.
that is why you need to use your own stoploss and mm.
