Times like this. I bet your batting average is really low, and probably at the 30's. So during this time, I am very picky on which names to trade, and made sure that size is pretty low.

Last trade done for me is $SPNEC. Bought at 1.85 sold earlier at 2.02 with a var of just 0.5%. Port exposure is just 20% at the moment. I'm not really thinking of being aggressive, as port results is not showing any tractions. 

Good luck out 

Out muna ako kay spnec because of its sro, although may play pa sya..

Yan ang tanong na gusto ko rin itanong kay THE SPECIALIST.....

I think, I have already stated before that I don't do reco's. Analyst do that, and I am not one of them, you could refer to the broker's site if you wish for that info. All information I have shared in here, is the lesson I have learned overtime, some trades that I have taken in the past for examples and reference, thought processes during and after the trade, and timeless principles I used in the markets. If those are not helpful enough for you, or for anyone. I don't know, how could I further help or contribute.

I am just a mere stock operator/speculator, that trades/invest in the market using/bounded by a trading system. To me the best stock, is the name that you could find on your own.

Now, if an individual could not get a leader, that's a room for improvement. If you could not get your port to gain, again that's a room improvement, If an individual, looses a big amount of money, again that's a room for improvement. And ano nga ba basically ung ginagawa para mag-improve ang isang tao? Or somewhat matuto ng isang skill? I bet you could answer it already. 

Also, based on the trades that you have taken. We don't look for the same criteria. I don't buy a downtrending stock, and will never do in my future trades. So I won't be helpful for you that enough, since I am not a bottom picker.  

Have a nice day!

All about exposure: 

Let's say, you have already bought some names, probably at 20-25% port exposure (probe/test buy). The way how to gauge the market/trade idea, is that test buy working? What is happening at your buy alert list, are they confirming (gain) or not following through (moving on the downside), or just merely in a sideways?

If the answer is yes, meaning your making money, you have a cushion probably at 6-10% up on a name. Okay, you could add to an existing position, or even buy some other names. Since your strategy is working.

If the answer is no, meaning your not making money. I don't see any a good reason, why an individual should buy more. Here's the reason why, if you are not profitable at 20-25% exposure, there is no intelligent reason why you should increase exposure to 50-75% exposure. Same goes, if you are at 50% port exposure, there is no intelligent reason why should anyone should increase exposure to even 75-100% port exposure. Why? It is for only for this vital reasons, clearly your strategy is not working at the moment, the market might be in a difficult environment to be in it, or your criteria might be bad.

If one is not discipline enough, to wait for their strategy to work, before they comes in the market. You don't have a strategy, what you have is an addiction "addiction to trade". A good trading strategy or a perfect system, doesn't really matter, if one individual was not discipline enough to follow it. And I bet, those guys/girls will be taking the hit, and will probably have a tough time in their investing journey. 

Always remember, if you are the one managing your port or fund. All decision is made by "You Alone", whether you got a reco from this one site, a good research that you believe in, a good trade idea that you have tested to bought/sold. Remember trading and investing, is a one-man job. Meaning, Ikaw pren ung pumindot nyan, whether it is a buy/sell. So be accountable to it. Else, if your having the money managed by a fund manager, that's a different story.

Ilang percent ba ng mga Pinoy ang nag-iinvest sa Stock Market?

I believe that the answer to this question, can be answered perfectly by "googling". I don't have the exact numbers, but it's pretty low compared to the other countries and exchanges, that is if you are referring to "PSEI" itself.

Ang lakas ng tama ng empi. 

Congrats, if you happen to bought it (april 13, 2022) and hold it. You must be a tape reader, or you happen to read/understand the disclosure of the company prior to its move (meaning you already have it on your list). I don't personally own the name, but for those guys/girls that is clueless why it move. The catalyst is "EMP will be added to SGX exchange".

Not sure if everyone happen to see, my last post (decided to hide it). Since I don't want to scare anyone, also that is only a study/thesis that needs some confirmation from the market. But since this already started to unfold. Let me write a little about it.

That day, I noticed some weakness, on one prior leader name. To be specific, $MER. For some reason, I noticed that it was being distributed (at least from how the way I interpret it). I understand that it may be different from the others. 

I believe, I already written some articles or comments in the thread that stocks moves in cycles/groups. Whether it is on the upside/sideways/down. Of course, it won't be a leader if the move will not be started by it, and the other members of the group didn't follow. There are some outliers, but to be specific, the one I want to show is the group move. 

So let's now see, $MER (previous leader for my stand point for energy name)

- coming from it's base. 20% upside. (box in blue)

- then come april 12, 2022 ( I noticed a sell-off on huge volume). Then followed by continuous selling days (breaking supports). See attached

 

Now let's see other energy name like (AP, SPNEC, ACEN) on that same date forward. Attached screen print for reference.

Please bear mind, that this was a thesis. It's never my style to predict, but rather I only interpret what the price action is telling. Just to be clear, I never recommended anything whether it was a buy or a sell. All I want to say, at this point is, good luck on the energy name holders out there! :)

Great evening to all!

Do you think i have a crystal ball to tell so, sir? hehehe. Binigay ko na nga ung catalyst e.

How about a twist, if i may ask you. Why do you think the price of $EMP will rise to 20/ish or more? What will invalidate the trade idea? What makes its price action different to the other names, that you think it will reach that price, at this point in time? Does risk, outweighs the reward?

In case you bought it, at what price level you think, that the trade is invalidated? And how much size should you buy in percentage of your port?

If you can answer those, there you go. You have a precise plan. Just follow it.

Alam ko nashare ko na to before dito, ung 50/80 rule. Konti nalang, down 50% na tong previously favored stock name na to.

Ulitin ko nalang ulet dito. Once a leadership move ended. There is a 50% chance, that it will go down 80% and there is an 80% chance, it will go down 50%.

Stock highlight for today is $ACEN. 44% down already from the top. At Naalala ko din ung ibang nagcomment na "oks lang yan bro, aangat din yan".  "Solid naman funda, tas magandang company". 

Ngaun ako naman ang magtatanong. If it is a good company or a stock to be bought, tingin nyo why its price not going up? Kelan kaya aangat? Kung hawak mo to, ok ka pren ba, if down ka na ng 20-44% on a stock? Sana di ka na-stress. 😅

Sa mga nalinawan sa pwedeng mangyari if trade/invest lang ng di nag-aaral at di marunong mag-manage ng risk. I do hope, you could learn something from the experienced. Then again, I am not a market top/bottom caller. This can either stop at 50% or pwede rin namang 80%. No one knows really.

Good luck! and just sharing stuff. Post not meant to harm anyone.

out of over 300 names listed in the psei. Remaining uptrend names, now goes to 9. Bigay ko na yung isa, since given naman, $EMP is a part of those list. 

The rest is diving, as deep as the market would like it to go.

Just a quick update. Remaining uptrend names is down to 3. with the 2 (outliers names) are already extended from my point of view. And 1 is basing out. In short, I haven't seen any name that has a setup for me to do something. I got 1 outlier name, but I am just trailing this. One spike, I might sold half and trail remaining. This trade was just a low size trade. It was having a relative strength that is why I still hold it.

 

Few points, in a relatively weak market. There is nothing to be aggressive, if you want to try to buy a name (test buy) let say, 1-2 position, try observing it after your initial purchase, if it will work. If not I think you already know the answer, no need to buy another 1, since clearly your strategy is not working. I would suggest to use atleast 5% of your portfolio and employ a good risk management skills at all times.

Sa mga ipit naman, use the rally to sell the position or atleast reduce the position. That is the only way, to lessen the bleeding. If you think that it will go back to your purchase price quickly, your wrong, especially for those in a clear downtrending stock. 

 

For those in cash, just be patient and keep your list updated. I honestly think, that there is nothing to do at the moment in the PSEI. And those that aggressive at this point in time and fail to manage risk will be slaughtered.

Few points to answer the above inquiry.

The election results is being price in by the market itself. To be specific, any event that is happening on the whole wide world or the country is being price in by the market.

Few tips for PSE: It is wise to know, what the incoming president (in this case BBM), will deeply focus on. Since, you will see some movement on that particular group or specific name. Here's an example, if BBM will focus on improving the internet services in the country. For sure, you will see price movement on the internet companies in the upside. Vice-versa, for those project that BBM will not prioritize or avoid (perhaps, a conflict to BBM) will also have a great impact. So meaning, that particular group or stock will fall.

If you look into history, Ex. Pduts in his time as a president, Ayala and MVP had a conflict with him for sometime. Guess what happen to Ayala stock and MVP stock. It falls hardly.

You can see it, through the chart. If you are just patient enough to look/validate what I am stating in here. 

RE: the news, that circulated in the soc med, after "BBM's partial results unofficial winner" may 10 news to be exact. Most of the guys/girls reading in here for quite sometime are already aware that it was a fake news. Since, the market has been underpressure/experiencing a sell-off, prior to the election. Same thing goes at the US markets (fed tightening/potential global recession). :D

As you can see, I have already posted before. That any information, news, catalyst, should be validated through price. If it is true or not. And not, just take it and believe it easily. The news doesn't really matter, it's the reaction to the news/catalyst/fundamentals matters most.

Here's how the US/PSEI markets looks like at the moment. So the people in here will have some visuals what I am talking about.

I do hope I share some clarity rather than fear.

Meanwhile, Anyone might possibly think. A durog pala, US at PSEI. Lipat ko kaya sa crypto. 

Guess what, durog din at under pressure. Here's how it looks at the moment. 

Hopefully, people in this thread, will realize the main reason why from the start since I posted in here. That it's a must to study the markets before putting your hard earn money on it.

Those people who's ignorant, and merely gamblers (not knowing what their doing), will surely be punished in time.
