Hybrid 10-Step Trading Strategy Review
(Each step scored out of 10 based on trade alignment with strategy.)
Step 1: Identify Market State & Trend Context - Score: 8/10
- ATI is transitioning from a downtrend into a potential uptrend.
- Break above the 20-MA signals trend reversal, but confirmation above ₱18.00 is needed.
Step 2: Assess Price Position Relative to Key Levels - Score: 8/10
- Price reclaimed the 20-MA (₱16.82), signaling short-term strength.
- The next resistance is at the 200-MA (₱18.61), which must be cleared for further upside.
Step 3: Power Bars & Retracement Strength - Score: 9/10
- Strong bullish price action with a breakout candlestick.
- Momentum suggests continuation, provided volume remains steady.
Step 4: Entry Confirmation Based on Retracement Levels - Score: 8/10
- Entry was well-timed as the price confirmed strength above ₱17.00.
- A retracement to ₱16.50 would offer another entry opportunity.
Step 5: Tactical Stop-Loss Adjustments - Score: 9/10
- Stop-loss set below ₱16.40 to minimize risk.
- A breakdown below this level invalidates the trade setup.
Step 6: Color Change as a Secondary Confirmation - Score: 8/10
- Green candlestick formation confirms buying pressure.
- Needs follow-through above ₱17.50 to confirm continuation.
Step 7: Profit-Taking Aligned with Retracement Targets - Score: 9/10
- First target: ₱18.50 (near the 200-MA).
- Final target: ₱19.50-₱20.00 (key resistance zone).
Step 8: Re-Entry at Secondary Retracement Pullbacks - Score: 7/10
- A retest of ₱16.80-₱17.00 would offer another entry.
- Breakout above ₱18.00 justifies scaling into the position.
Step 9: Tactical Position Management - Score: 8/10
- 1/2 position deployed, leaving room for scaling if price stabilizes above ₱18.00.
- Further exposure should only be added above ₱18.50.
Step 10: Counter-Trend Trades Only When Retracement Fails - Score: 6/10
- Not a counter-trend trade, but caution is needed near ₱18.50 resistance.
- Failure to hold above ₱16.50 would weaken the bullish setup.
๐ Overall Strategy Score: 80/100
๐ Summary: Trade was well-positioned on a momentum breakout, with further upside potential if price clears ₱18.50.
Final Trade Assessment
Trade Rating: 8.0/10
✅ Trade Execution: Entry positioned at a breakout level, aligning with trend reversal.
✅ Risk Management: Stop-loss at ₱16.40 ensures controlled downside risk.

Next Steps
๐ Monitor price action near ₱18.00-₱18.50. If ATI holds this level, consider scaling up.
๐ Watch for weakness below ₱16.50. If momentum weakens, reassess the trade and exit below ₱16.40.
๐ Look for re-entry opportunities. If ATI retests ₱16.80-₱17.00 and holds, consider adding more shares.
๐จ Conclusion: Trade No. 6 remains strong, with bullish momentum. A move above ₱18.50 would confirm further upside. ๐จ
