Script page
1 · Gator
| Input | Default | Plain meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Jaw len/off | 13 / 8 | Slowest Alligator line — length, then forward offset |
| Teeth len/off | 8 / 5 | Mid line |
| Lips len/off | 5 / 3 | Fastest of the three |
Classic Alligator displacement. Larger lengths slow the mouth; offsets shift the drawn lines to the right.

|---|---|---|
| Purple len/off | 34 / 21 | Fourth line — higher-timeframe bias on this chart |
Bias rules (dashboard Purple Magic):
- Whole mouth above Purple → Bullish
- Whole mouth below Purple → Bearish
- Otherwise → Neutral

| Gator mouth ribbon | On | Fill between the three lines: green = Feeding up, red = Feeding down, dim = Sleeping |
| Trend cloud (jaw ↔ Purple Magic) | On | Soft cloud between Jaw and Purple, tinted by bias |
| Glow | On | Soft halo under Purple; lips glow while feeding |
