  • Exchange: Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE)

  • Timeframes: Daily, Weekly, Monthly

  • Closing Price: ₱0.77

  • High: ₱0.81

  • Low: ₱0.77

  • 20-MA: ₱0.70 (Daily)

  • 200-MA: ₱0.61 (Daily)

ABA continues to consolidate just below its recent high, showing signs of strength while trading above all major moving averages on the daily chart. Momentum remains favorable across all timeframes. This review applies our Hybrid 10-Step Strategy 5.0 – Long-Term Focus Variant.


✅ II. Hybrid 10-Step Trading Strategy 5.0 – Long-Term Focus Variant Review

1. Market State & Trend Context
The daily and weekly charts show a confirmed uptrend with all MAs aligned in a bullish structure. Monthly chart shows a bounce from multi-year lows.
Verdict: BUY

2. Price Position & Value Zones
ABA remains above its 20-day and 200-day MAs. It is currently mid-range between support at ₱0.70 and resistance near ₱0.84. Not yet overextended.
Verdict: BUY

3. Power Bars & Volume Confirmation
While there are no fresh power bars, prior accumulation was supported by strong bullish volume. Average daily volume remains healthy at 8.2M.
Verdict: BUY

4. Entry Confirmation (Fundamental & Technical)
Recent technical strength and long-term bounce structure from monthly lows support a long-term thesis. Fundamentals remain speculative but narrative-driven buying continues.
Verdict: BUY

5. Stop-Loss / Thesis Violation Point
Soft stop revised to ₱0.65 based on 20-day MA and layered support. A break below this would invalidate the recent momentum.
Verdict: BUY (Soft Stop in Place)

6. Color Change / Reversal Signals
No bearish reversal candle yet. Price action remains bullish with higher highs and higher lows.
Verdict: BUY

7. Profit-Taking Strategy
Near-term resistance zones are at ₱0.84, ₱0.95, and ₱1.10. Profit-taking can begin incrementally above ₱0.84.
Verdict: BUY

8. Re-Entry Plans
Re-entry zones if pullback occurs: ₱0.70, ₱0.65, ₱0.61. These are aligned with MAs and Fibonacci levels.
Verdict: BUY

9. Position Size Strategy
With a Php10,000 capital and 1,000-share board lot, the position will be layered into 3 tranches: ₱0.80 (executed), ₱0.70, ₱0.65.
Verdict: BUY

10. Ethical/Counter-Trend Opportunities
No short setups or counter-trend signals detected. Bias remains bullish.
Verdict: BUY


🚀 III. Final Stock Recommendation

Final Stock Recommendation: BUY

📅 Recommendation: Accumulate on pullbacks between ₱0.70 and ₱0.65 while price holds above ₱0.61.

🔢 Risk Management: Monitor soft stop at ₱0.65. Exit partially if price closes below 20-day MA with volume.

💰 Profit-Taking Strategy: Begin trimming at ₱0.84, with targets at ₱0.95 and ₱1.10 for mid-term swing.

📆 Position Size Strategy: Deploy 48% core position at ₱0.80 (executed), layer 32% at ₱0.70, and final 20% at ₱0.65.


🔄 IV. Next Steps

Short-term traders → Consider profit-taking above ₱0.84; rebuy only on confirmed pullback to ₱0.70.

Long-term investors → Continue layering in tranches below ₱0.75; thesis remains valid.

Existing holders → Hold current shares. Add on pullbacks if conviction remains. Monitor for breakout above ₱0.84.


🧩 V. Layered Accumulation Plan for ABA

(Based on Php10,000.00 Capital and 1,000-Share Board Lot)

We are applying a structured accumulation strategy for ABA based on our Hybrid 10-Step Strategy – Long-Term Focus Variant. With a capital of Php10,000.00, the plan is as follows:

  • Core Position (Executed): ₱0.80 x 1,000 shares = ₱800.00 (48%)

  • Second Layer (Pending): ₱0.70 x 1,000 shares = ₱700.00 (32%)

  • Final Layer (Pending): ₱0.65 x 1,000 shares = ₱650.00 (20%)

This approach allows for flexibility and downside protection as we build our long-term position.


📊 VI. Evaluation of Recent Action for Adherence to the Hybrid 10-Step Strategy – Long-Term Focus Variant

Long-Term Focus Trading Environment

I. Introduction

This post summarizes our Layered Accumulation Plans and Phased Exit Plans for three stocks we are tracking under the Hybrid 10-Step Trading Strategy 5.0 – Long-Term Focus Variant. These are:

  • AbaCore Capital Holdings, Inc. (ABA)

  • Wilcon Depot, Inc. (WLCON)

  • Forum Pacific, Inc. (FPI)

Each plan is tailored to the stock’s technical setup, liquidity profile, capital allocation strategy, and board lot compliance. Entry layers are strategically placed near value zones and breakout levels, while exit stages aim to optimize returns as price progresses toward resistance targets.


II. Layered Accumulation Plan Summary

🔹 ABA (Php10,000 Capital)

  • Layer 1 (Executed): 6,000 shares @ ₱0.80 = ₱4,800

  • Layer 2: 2,000 shares @ ₱0.70 = ₱1,400

  • Layer 3: 1,000 shares @ ₱0.65 = ₱650 (GTC placed)

  • Layer 4: 2,000 shares @ ₱0.85 = ₱1,700

  • Buffer: ₱1,450 reserved for volatility adjustments

➡ Focus: Flexible multi-layer strategy to capture retracements and breakout momentum, anchored on a disciplined cost-averaging plan.

This structure balances core positioning with tactical pullback and breakout entries, allowing flexibility in both downtrend defense and uptrend momentum builds.

🔹 WLCON (Php3,000 Capital)

  • Layer 1 (Executed): 100 shares @ ₱7.31 = ₱731

  • Layer 2 (GTC): 100 shares @ ₱7.00 = ₱700

  • Layer 3 (Pending): 100 shares @ ₱6.25–₱6.50 = ₱650

  • Buffer: ₱900 reserved (30% capital)

➡ Focus: Conservative 3-layer plan with small board lot entries to test potential support zones amid ongoing downtrend.

The plan uses conservative board lot entries to cautiously engage a structurally weak but potentially bottoming stock, with clear capital discipline in place.

🔹 FPI (Php3,000 Capital)

  • Layer 1 (Executed): 10,000 shares @ ₱0.25 = ₱2,500

  • Layer 2 (Planned): 10,000 shares @ ₱0.23 = ₱2,300

  • Layer 3 (Final Add-on): 10,000 shares @ ₱0.22 = ₱2,200

  • Total Exposure: ₱7,300 for 30,000 shares across three zones

➡ Focus: Aggressive but controlled accumulation strategy to scale quickly near breakout and MA20 support zone.

This 3-layered aggressive scaling approach supports breakout participation while enabling averaging near MA20 support zones.


III. Phased Exit Plan Summary

🔹 ABA (Derived Exit Targets)

  • Stage 1: ₱0.90–₱0.95 (initial resistance)

  • Stage 2: ₱1.10–₱1.20 (prior highs)

  • Stage 3: Trail remaining shares if momentum breaks ₱1.20+

🔹 WLCON (Staged Profit Levels)

  • Stage 1: ₱10.00

  • Stage 2: ₱12.00

  • Stage 3: ₱16.00 on long-term breakout extension

🔹 FPI (Explicit Plan)

  • Stage 1: ₱0.30

  • Stage 2: ₱0.34

  • Stage 3: ₱0.45 (high-reward target if volume sustains)

Each exit plan uses technical resistance clusters and projected trend extensions as guideposts, while integrating volume confirmation and soft-stop monitoring to protect gains.


IV. Final Thoughts and Discipline Reminder

These plans emphasize long-term positioning with tactical flexibility. Patience is key: layering must be driven by price behavior, not emotions. Volume, trend confirmation, and capital exposure limits must remain central to our Hybrid 10-Step Strategy – Long-Term Focus Variant.

🚨 Mindset Reminder: In long-term investing, protecting capital during volatility is as important as capturing upside. Stay focused on trend structure, not short-term noise.

✅ II. Hybrid 10-Step Trading Strategy 5.0 – Long-Term Focus Variant Review

1. Market State & Trend Context
On the weekly chart, FPI has broken out from a long consolidation base, with volume surging to a 16-week high. On the monthly chart, price is reclaiming territory last seen in mid-2023, above key MAs.
Verdict: BUY (score: 9/10)

The most recent weekly candle is a power bar with an extended body and high volume. Monthly candle also shows increasing demand.
Verdict: BUY (score: 10/10)

Verdict: BUY (score: 7/10)

The orange 8-MA is sloping upward, crossing over key MAs. Weekly and monthly trend flips suggest sustained directional change.
Verdict: BUY (score: 9/10)

Initial resistance lies at ₱0.30–₱0.34; multi-year resistance band may cap rallies, suggesting partial take-profits at those zones.

Pullbacks to ₱0.22–₱0.23 are favorable for re-entry or position additions.
Verdict: BUY (score: 9/10)

Weekly chart of WLCON showing resistance at 20-week MA and ongoing downtrend

Wilcon Depot, Inc. (WLCON) weekly chart as of June 9, 2025

🧭 I. Introduction

TRADE DETAILS
Date: June 9, 2025
Stock: Wilcon Depot, Inc. (WLCON)
Exchange: Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE)
Timeframe: Weekly
Closing Price: ₱7.09
High: ₱7.34
Low: ₱7.06
20-MA (Short-Term Trend): ₱7.20
200-MA (Long-Term Trend): ₱22.45

WLCON continues to trade significantly below its long-term moving average and is currently testing its short-term 20-week MA from below. Volume has slightly picked up but remains modest compared to major downtrend periods. This review is guided by our Hybrid 10-Step Trading Strategy 5.0 – Long-Term Focus Variant, with a focus on patient accumulation and value-zone layering.


📈 II. Hybrid 10-Step Trading Strategy Review

(Adapted for Long-Term Focus)

1. Market State & Trend Context

WLCON remains in a confirmed long-term downtrend, having declined from above ₱30 in early 2023 to its current levels below ₱8. It is currently attempting to stabilize just beneath its declining 20-week moving average.
Verdict: HOLD/WAIT


2. Price Position & Value Zones

The price sits significantly below the 200-week MA (₱22.45), suggesting a deep discount from long-term valuations. However, price is still not showing strong accumulation signs or base formation yet.
Verdict: WAIT


3. Power Bars & Volume Confirmation

No recent power bar breakout is evident on the weekly chart. Although we’ve seen some green volume bars, they do not yet constitute a confirmed shift in institutional buying behavior.
Verdict: HOLD/WAIT


4. Entry Confirmation (Fundamental & Technical)

Fundamentally, WLCON remains a dominant player in its sector. However, from a technical standpoint, we await more decisive support-building and a base confirmation on longer timeframes.
Verdict: HOLD


5. Stop-Loss / Thesis Violation Point

A soft stop for long-term investors may be set near the ₱6.00 psychological level. Breach below that without rebound may call for re-evaluation.
Verdict: HOLD


6. Color Change / Reversal Signals

We observe minor weekly green candles, but no sustained momentum or “color change” has formed to imply a reversal.
Verdict: WAIT


7. Profit-Taking Strategy

Given the long-term nature of this plan, target zones for partial profit-taking may include ₱10.00 (nearest former support), ₱12.00 (50-week MA), and ₱16.00 (major structure midpoint).
Verdict: HOLD – No trigger yet


8. Re-Entry Plans

Not yet relevant as no prior successful breakout has been initiated. First buy zone consideration may begin only once a base confirms near current levels.
Verdict: WAIT


9. Position Size Strategy (Board Lot Conversion & Layering Plan)

Board lot is 100 shares. Long-term investors may consider starting with minimal layers of 100 to 200 shares only if price dips near ₱6.00, and prepare larger allocations if momentum begins to shift back above ₱8.00.
Verdict: WAIT for better layer trigger zones


10. Ethical/Counter-Trend Opportunities

While WLCON may be fundamentally solid, the technical backdrop lacks ethical trade setup justification at this point. We do not recommend counter-trend buys while the weekly trend remains downward.
Verdict: NOT YET


✅ III. Final Stock Recommendation

Final Stock Recommendation: HOLD/WAIT

📅 Recommendation: Hold and monitor price behavior near ₱6.00–₱6.50 zone. Wait for stronger signs of support-building and institutional accumulation.

🔢 Risk Management: Monitor soft stop below ₱6.00 for downside protection.

💰 Profit-Taking Strategy: Consider taking profits in stages at ₱10.00, ₱12.00, and ₱16.00 once position is established and confirmed.

📆 Position Size Strategy: For investors with limited capital, delay layering until more clarity emerges. Use 100-share entries only after stabilization or a base appears.


🔄 IV. Next Steps

Short-term traders → No tactical trade opportunity yet. Avoid premature entry until clear breakout signals above ₱8.00 are seen.

Long-term investors → Monitor closely. Prepare to layer 100-share blocks if support confirms around ₱6.00 with improving volume.

Existing holders → Hold. Reduce only if new lows below ₱6.00 breach your soft stop threshold.


🧩 V. Layered Accumulation Plan for WLCON

(Based on Php3,000 Capital and 100-Share Board Lot)

Given the 100-share board lot requirement and a cautious stance due to WLCON's ongoing downtrend, we outline a 3-layer accumulation strategy suited for small capital and long-term patience.

  • Layer 1 (Initial Position – Executed June 9, 2025):
    Bought 100 shares @ ₱7.31 = ₱731.00
    Rationale: Modest starter position to build presence near 20-week MA resistance zone.

  • Layer 2 (Pending GTC Order):
    Buy 100 shares @ ₱7.00 = ₱700.00
    Rationale: Averaging down near minor support and psychological level.

  • Layer 3 (Reserve Capital):
    Buy 100 shares @ ₱6.25–₱6.50 (monitor price behavior) = ₱650.00
    Rationale: Final layer at expected soft support zone, contingent on volume and stabilization.

  • Total Projected Capital Use: ~₱2,081

  • Cash Buffer: ~₱900 (30% of capital remains for price rejection or breakout scenario flexibility)

⚖️ This layered plan prioritizes low-cost exposure and disciplined patience, as WLCON remains technically weak but potentially forming a long-term bottom.


📊 VI. Evaluation of Recent Action for Adherence to the Hybrid 10-Step Trading Strategy – Long-Term Focus Variant

Action Evaluated:

  • Entry on June 9, 2025 @ ₱7.31 for 100 shares

  • Placed GTC Order @ ₱7.00 for 100 shares

Using a 10-point scoring system per strategy step, we evaluated our recent action against each component of the Hybrid 10-Step Strategy – Long-Term Focus Variant:

  1. Market State & Trend Context received a score of 6 out of 10. While the downtrend is acknowledged, entering before a base or reversal makes the trade early, though not entirely misaligned.

  2. Price Position & Value Zones earned 7 out of 10, as the entry was just beneath the 20-week MA, which may act as short-term resistance. However, it’s within range of technical interest.

  3. Power Bars & Volume Confirmation scored 4 out of 10 due to the absence of any clear power bar or volume spike at entry.

  4. Entry Confirmation was given 5 out of 10. While the fundamentals are acceptable, there was no strong technical trigger to justify the timing.

  5. Stop-Loss / Thesis Violation scored 7 out of 10, with a soft stop anticipated near ₱6.00, a logical psychological level.

  6. Color Change / Reversal Signal earned only 4 out of 10, as no significant reversal pattern or weekly trend shift has yet emerged.

  7. Profit-Taking Strategy received 6 out of 10, as it is pre-planned in the broader post but not immediately relevant during the entry.

  8. Re-Entry Plan was scored 8 out of 10 because the GTC order at ₱7.00 represents a clear follow-up strategy and cost-averaging plan.

  9. Position Size Strategy achieved a perfect 10 out of 10, demonstrating full compliance with board lot requirements, small exposure, and capital preservation.

  10. Ethical/Counter-Trend Opportunities earned 6 out of 10, as there was no confirmed setup, but the entry still fits the long-term patient accumulation framework.

Final Total Score: 63 out of 100

Interpretation:

Our Layer 1 entry on June 9, 2025, reflects a cautious yet slightly early move into WLCON. While it aligns with long-term accumulation intent, several technical signals such as volume, trend reversal, and power bars were not yet present. As such, this position is considered a speculative but structurally acceptable initial buy under our long-term strategy.

🚨 Final Thought: No stock moves up without demand. Patience is key—allow the stock to form a true base before engaging in new positions.

This enhanced framework is specifically designed for investors seeking to build positions gradually over time, using disciplined accumulation within value zones while managing risk through fundamental thesis validation. Whether you're investing with limited capital or looking to anchor your portfolio with quality long-term plays, this strategy offers a step-by-step guide optimized for patience, accumulation, and sustainable portfolio growth.

Summary of Key Differences from the Original Strategy:

  • Greater focus on weekly and monthly charts

  • Emphasis on value zones and thesis integrity

  • Wider tolerance for pullbacks and volatility

  • Profit-taking guided by valuation cycles, not short-term technical targets

  • Stop-losses based on fundamental deterioration, not price dips


Illustrated breakdown of the Hybrid 10-Step Strategy – Long-Term Focus Variant with icons for each trading step.

Visual guide to the 10-step long-term investment strategy used by Micro Stock Trader



✅ Step 1: Identify Market State & Trend Context

  • Use monthly and weekly charts to determine the macro trend: Is the stock bottoming, trending upward, or stuck in consolidation?

  • Focus on long-term moving averages (50-MA, 100-MA, 200-MA) and multi-year support/resistance zones.

  • Validate trend strength by ensuring price is attempting to reclaim or hold above the 200-MA on the weekly chart.

Verdict: Accumulate if the stock is bottoming or gradually recovering from long-term support.


✅ Step 2: Price Position & Long-Term Value Zones

  • Identify whether the price is deeply discounted or fairly valued relative to historical norms.

  • Use retracement zones of 45%–75% from previous major rallies to identify accumulation sweet spots.

  • Favor setups where price is near or slightly below book value, intrinsic value estimates, or dividend yield support zones.

Verdict: Begin layering in once price enters ideal long-term retracement range.


✅ Step 3: Power Bars, Price Behavior & Volume Shift

  • Spot volume-supported green candles or multi-week stabilization as early signs of accumulation.

  • Even without power bars, long-term investors monitor for tight basing patterns or failed breakdowns.

  • Declining volume after a selloff can signal seller exhaustion.

Verdict: Accumulate when quiet accumulation behavior or bullish candle formations start to appear.


✅ Step 4: Entry Confirmation Based on Fundamentals & Technical Triggers

  • Technical: Enter on reclaim of 200-week MA or breakout from a long-term base.

  • Fundamental: Enter when the stock has a strong balance sheet, clear dividend policy, low P/E or P/B ratio, and signs of sector recovery.

  • Ethical investors may also screen for Shariah-compliant or socially responsible metrics.

Verdict: Accumulate once the stock aligns with both fundamental conviction and technical signs of reversal.


✅ Step 5: Stop-Loss Policy Based on Thesis Violation, Not Noise

  • Do not use tight stop-losses.

  • Exit only if:

    • The company loses its core earnings base

    • Dividends are suspended without cause

    • Management issues arise (e.g., fraud, delisting risk)

    • A clear long-term downtrend resumes with volume

  • Maintain a watchlist of red flags instead of price-based cutoffs.

Verdict: Hold while the original investment thesis remains valid.


✅ Step 6: Color Change Signals for Trend Validation

  • Use monthly chart candles to spot transitions from red to green over several months.

  • Sustained green bars suggest institutional accumulation.

  • A return of three consecutive green candles is a solid long-term buy signal.

Verdict: Use green candle series to time additional layering or bulk accumulation.


✅ Step 7: Profit-Taking via Valuation and Growth Cycles

  • Do not aim for quick exits.

  • Target price should be based on:

    • P/E or P/B reversion to mean

    • Historical highs adjusted for earnings

    • Dividend yield compression

  • Scale out partially when price becomes overvalued by more than 20–30% relative to intrinsic estimates.

Verdict: Exit gradually as valuation exceeds fair value or sector rotation begins.


✅ Step 8: Re-Entry Plans After Market Dips

  • Be ready to re-enter during corrections to previous bases or near long-term support.

  • Use dividend announcements, quarterly earnings, or industry policy shifts as re-entry triggers.

  • Keep cash buffers for re-deployment during panic sell-offs.

Verdict: Maintain a shopping list of trusted names for pullback re-entries.


✅ Step 9: Position Size Planning for Long-Term Portfolios

  • Use phased layering-in strategy:

    • Initial Buy: 25% of allocation

    • Add-on 1: At next retracement or breakout (25%)

    • Add-on 2: After a strong reversal confirmation or earnings beat (50%)

  • Each tranche should have independent risk checks.

  • Stick to maximum 10% portfolio allocation per stock unless high conviction is reached.

Verdict: Build positions gradually; avoid overexposure in early stages.


✅ Step 10: Ethical and Counter-Trend Opportunity Considerations

  • Invest only in companies with transparent governance, sustainable practices, or Shariah-compliant financial structures.

  • Take advantage of extreme market fear or dislocations to enter strong companies at irrational prices.

  • Use macro events (e.g., elections, regulatory changes, global pullbacks) as opportunities—not threats.

Verdict: Stay alert for deep value plays during times of market pessimism.


📌 Final Thought:

“Long-term investing isn’t about timing the perfect entry. It’s about aligning conviction, value, and patience—then letting time do the compounding.”
