ATI Weekly Chart as of August 22, 2025 showing pullback to ₱27 support near 8MA after prior rally.

Weekly candlestick chart of Asian Terminals Inc. (ATI) with moving averages and key support-resistance levels.

Panimula: Mula Review, Ngayon Actual Trade

Noong August 15 review, ATI was consolidating above ₱27 support. Sabi natin, hintayin ang test buy sa ₱26–27 zone or breakout sa ₱29. Ngayon, tumama na ang plano—nakabili tayo ng 100 shares sa ₱27 as tactical base entry (Trade Simulation Update #15).

Pero eto ang tanong: matatag ba ang suporta sa ₱27 o baka false footing lang bago sumubsob sa ilalim ng MA8? Kaya’t sisilipin natin ulit kung paano nag-e-evolve ang setup at kung dapat ba nating dagdagan o bantayan muna ang hawak.

3️⃣ Hatol ng Batangueñong Trader

Para kang bumili ng tikim lang sa talipapa—isang kilo lang muna, para matest ang lasa. Ganoon din kay ATI: maliit lang ang hawak, habang sinusukat kung tunay na malasa paakyat o baka maging hilaw at bumagsak sa ilalim ng ₱25.

📌 Entry Price Ranges: ₱26.50–₱27.00 (executed test buy)
📌 Stop-Loss Level: Below ₱25.00
📌 Target Prices: ₱29.00, ₱30.00, ₱32.00
📌 Add/Trim Plan: Add 200 shares if breakout above ₱29 confirmed with volume
📌 Position Strategy: Maintain light core, scale only on breakout

Layer 3: ₱24.80–₱25.20 | 300 shares (₱7,500) | Deep pullback
Layer 4: ₱29.30–₱29.70 | 200 shares (₱5,900) | Breakout add

Total Committed (if complete): ₱21,300 (42% of capital)
Remaining Buffer: ₱28,700 (58%)

6️⃣ Updated Phased Exit Plan

Exit 2: ₱29.80–₱30.20 | 200 shares (lock partial profit)

Exit 4: Hard Stop Zone: below ₱24.80 | Full exit

7️⃣ Final Trade Recommendation

✅ Risk Management: Hard stop below ₱25.
✅ Profit-Taking Strategy: Trim at ₱29–32.
✅ Position Size Strategy: Start small, scale only on confirmed momentum.

8️⃣ Closing Reflection

Ito ang essence ng simulation—test first, commit later. ATI is now inside the playbook, pero maliit lang muna ang binigyan. Patience and discipline will define kung makakakuha tayo ng tamang biyahe pataas.
