Ang Punto ng Usapan

Last Saturday, ang isa sa mga tinalakay sa aming technical analysis discussion ay ang reversal patterns. Sa unang tingin, simple lang siya pakinggan: mga chart formation na maaaring magbigay ng clue na nagbabago na ang direction ng price trend.

Pero habang mas pinag-iisipan ko siya, mas malinaw na hindi pala ito simpleng usapan ng “nakakita ako ng pattern, kaya trade agad.”

Mas malalim ang aral.

Ang reversal pattern ay hindi hula. Hindi rin siya magic signal. Isa siyang visual clue na maaaring nagsisimula nang magbago ang behavior ng buyers at sellers. Kapag dating uptrend, maaaring mag-warning ito na humihina na ang momentum. Kapag dating downtrend, maaari itong magsabi na may buyers nang unti-unting pumapasok.

Pero gaya ng maraming bagay sa merkado, hindi sapat ang itsura. Kailangan pa rin ng confirmation.

Dito ko nagustuhan ang simpleng linya para sa topic na ito:

Pattern muna, confirmation next.

Ano ang Reversal Patterns

Ang reversal patterns ay mga chart formations na maaaring magpahiwatig na ang dating trend ay posibleng magbago ng direksyon.

Kung ang stock ay matagal nang umaakyat, ang bearish reversal pattern ay maaaring mag-warning na humihina na ang buyers at posibleng magsimula ang correction o downtrend.

Kung ang stock naman ay matagal nang bumababa, ang bullish reversal pattern ay maaaring magpahiwatig na nababawasan na ang selling pressure at posibleng magsimula ang recovery.

Pero mahalaga ang salitang “posible.”

Hindi automatic ang reversal. Hindi porket may pattern ay sigurado na ang kasunod na galaw. Sa technical analysis, ang pattern ay parang kwento ng market behavior. Pero kailangan pa rin nating hintayin kung tatapusin ba ng merkado ang kwento sa pamamagitan ng breakout, breakdown, volume, at follow-through.

Head & Shoulders

Isa sa pinaka-classic na reversal patterns ay ang Head & Shoulders.

Usually, bearish reversal pattern ito. Madalas itong hinahanap pagkatapos ng uptrend, kung saan unti-unting nagpapakita na humihina na ang buying pressure.

Ang basic structure nito ay:

Left Shoulder
Head
Right Shoulder
Neckline break

Sa left shoulder, umaakyat pa rin ang price at mukhang normal pa ang trend. Sa head, nakakagawa pa ng mas mataas na peak ang price, kaya parang malakas pa rin ang buyers. Pero pagdating sa right shoulder, hindi na niya kayang ulitin ang taas ng head.

Doon nagsisimulang maging interesting ang pattern.

Parang sinasabi ng chart: “Nakagawa pa ako ng higher high kanina, pero ngayon hindi ko na kayang balikan.”

Kapag nabasag ang neckline, mas lumalakas ang bearish interpretation. Ibig sabihin, hindi na lang ito simpleng paghina sa taas; may actual break na sa support structure.

May kabaligtaran din ito: ang Inverse Head & Shoulders. Kung ang ordinary Head & Shoulders ay bearish reversal after an uptrend, ang inverse version naman ay bullish reversal after a downtrend.

Sa inverse pattern, parang nauubos na ang sellers. Bumubuo ang price ng left shoulder, lower head, at right shoulder, pero hindi na rin nagagawa ng price na bumagsak pa nang mas malalim. Kapag nabasag ang neckline pataas, doon nagiging mas valid ang bullish signal.

Ang lesson dito: hindi sapat na makita ang ulo at balikat. Ang mas mahalaga ay kung nasaan ang neckline at kung may malinaw na break.

Double Tops and Double Bottoms

Ang Double Top ay bearish reversal pattern.

Simple ang kwento nito. Dalawang beses sinubukan ng price basagin ang resistance, pero dalawang beses din itong nabigo. Parang may kisame ang presyo na hindi niya malampasan.

Sa Taglish trader language:

“Hanggang dito lang kaya ng buyers.”

Pero gaya ng Head & Shoulders, hindi sapat na dalawang peak lang ang makita. Ang mas mahalaga ay ang support o neckline sa gitna ng dalawang top. Kapag nabasag iyon, doon nagiging mas malinaw na posible nang mag-shift ang sentiment from bullish to bearish.

Ang Double Bottom naman ay kabaligtaran.

Bullish reversal pattern ito. Dalawang beses sinubukan ng price bumagsak, pero parehong sinalo ng buyers. Parang sinasabi ng market:

“Dito may demand. Dito may sumasalo.”

Kapag nabasag naman ang resistance sa itaas ng formation, mas lumalakas ang bullish signal. Dito puwedeng magsimula ang recovery, lalo na kung may kasamang volume at mas magandang market context.

Sa simpleng salita:

Double Top: dalawang beses nabigo sa resistance.
Double Bottom: dalawang beses sinalo sa support.

Pero sa parehong pattern, confirmation pa rin ang tunay na trigger.

Cup and Handle

Ang Cup and Handle ay interesting dahil maaari siyang maging bullish continuation or bullish reversal pattern, depende sa context.

Ang itsura niya ay parang tasa.

Una, may rounded bottom na nagsisilbing cup. Ipinapakita nito na unti-unting bumabagal ang selling, nagkakaroon ng stabilization, at dahan-dahang bumabalik ang buyers.

Pagkatapos, may maliit na pullback o consolidation na nagsisilbing handle. Hindi ito dapat agad tingnan bilang weakness. Minsan, ito ay pause lang bago ang possible breakout.

Ang confirmation usually nangyayari kapag nabasag ang resistance sa rim ng cup. Mas maganda kung may volume, dahil ipinapakita nito na hindi lang basta manipis na galaw ang breakout. May participation.

Sa akin, maganda ang Cup and Handle bilang visual reminder na hindi lahat ng recovery ay biglaan. May mga recovery na mabagal, paikot, at kailangan ng panahon bago tuluyang magpakita ng lakas.

Parang trader din.

Hindi lahat ng level up ay biglang talon. Minsan, gradual recovery muna. Then consolidation. Then saka pa lang breakout.

Wedges

Ang wedges naman ay tightening price patterns. Ibig sabihin, paliit nang paliit ang range ng galaw ng price.

May dalawang common types:

Rising Wedge
Falling Wedge

Ang Rising Wedge ay kadalasang bearish. Umaakyat ang price, pero habang umaakyat, kumikipot ang galaw. Parang umaakyat pa rin siya, pero hindi na kasing lakas ng dati. May progress, pero humihina ang momentum.

Kapag nabasag pababa ang lower trendline ng wedge, possible breakdown signal iyon.

Ang Falling Wedge naman ay kadalasang bullish. Bumababang price action siya, pero habang bumababa, kumikipot din ang range. Parang nauubos na ang selling pressure. Kapag nabasag pataas ang upper trendline, possible bullish breakout signal iyon.

Ang maganda sa wedges, tinuturuan tayo nitong hindi lang direction ang tinitingnan. Tinitingnan din natin ang quality ng galaw.

Umaakyat ba nang may lakas?
Bumababa ba nang may tunay na selling pressure?
O kumikipot na ang range at naghahanda na ang market sa mas malinaw na move?

Dito nagiging mahalaga ang patience. Kapag wedge pa lang, hindi pa tapos ang kwento. Kailangan pa ring hintayin kung saan siya lalabas.

Ang Tunay na Aral: Confirmation Muna Bago Action

Para sa akin, ito ang pinakasentro ng lesson:

Hindi porket mukhang Head & Shoulders, Double Top, Double Bottom, Cup and Handle, or Wedge, automatic trade agad.

Pattern muna. Confirmation next.

Ang confirmation ay maaaring manggaling sa:

clear breakout or breakdown
neckline break
support or resistance break
volume confirmation
follow-through candle
alignment with broader trend or market context

Kung walang confirmation, ang pattern ay possibility pa lang. Kapag may confirmation, doon pa lang siya nagiging mas tradable na signal.

At kahit may confirmation, hindi pa rin nawawala ang risk. Pattern can fail. Breakout can reverse. Breakdown can trap sellers. Kaya hindi puwedeng mawala ang risk management.

Dapat laging may tanong:

Nasaan ang invalidation level?
Saan ako mali?
Gaano kalaki ang risk kung hindi tumuloy ang pattern?
May sapat bang reward kung tama ang basa ko?
Compatible ba ito sa aking portfolio rules?

Dito pumapasok ang discipline.

Ang beginner minsan excited sa pattern. Ang mas disciplined na trader, excited din siguro, pero marunong maghintay.

Paano Ito Makakatulong sa Micro Harvesting Mindset

Sa Micro Harvesting, hindi natin hinahabol ang bawat galaw. Hindi rin natin ginagawang dahilan ang bawat pattern para magmadaling bumili o magbenta.

Mas mahalaga sa atin ang structure, capital posture, risk bands, at governance.

Kaya kapag pinag-uusapan ang reversal patterns, hindi ko ito tinitingnan bilang standalone trading signal lamang. Tinitingnan ko siya bilang dagdag na layer ng market reading.

Halimbawa, kung ang isang stock ay nasa deep stress zone at may lumalabas na possible bullish reversal pattern, hindi ibig sabihin automatic refill agad. Pero maaari itong makatulong para mas maunawaan kung may early sign na humihina na ang selling pressure.

Kung ang isang stock naman ay matagal nang umaakyat at may possible bearish reversal pattern, hindi ibig sabihin automatic sell agad. Pero maaari itong maging warning na dapat mas maging maingat, lalo na kung malapit na sa profit-taking zone o kung lumalabas na ang momentum fatigue.

Sa madaling salita, ang reversal patterns ay hindi dapat maging boss ng system. Dapat silang maging adviser lang.

Ang system pa rin ang masusunod.

Capital rules pa rin.
Risk management pa rin.
Confirmation pa rin.
Discipline pa rin.

Dito ko nakikita ang halaga ng formal technical analysis lesson sa actual Micro Stock Trader journey. Hindi niya pinapalitan ang existing framework. Pinapalinaw niya ang language ng chart behavior.

Mas nagiging organized ang dating instinct. Mas nagiging explainable ang dating pakiramdam. Mas nagiging disciplined ang dating reaction.

Dito rin nagiging malinaw kung bakit mahalaga ang formal learning. Kapag ang isang simpleng chart pattern ay may ganitong dami ng context—trend, neckline, breakout, volume, confirmation, at risk management—mas lalo mong makikita na ang technical analysis ay hindi lang memorization ng shapes. Kailangan din ng mas malalim na framework.

Kung Gusto Mong Lumalim Pa

Kung seryoso kang mas palalimin ang understanding mo sa capital markets, technical analysis, valuation, portfolio management, risk management, securities regulation, at ethics, magandang i-check ang 17th PSE-Ateneo Certified Securities Specialist Course.

Para sa akin, malaking bagay na ang actual market experience ay masamahan ng structured at formal learning. Iba pa rin kapag ang sariling trading journey ay nadadagdagan ng mas malinaw na framework, mas technical na language, at mas malalim na appreciation sa kung paano gumagalaw ang merkado.

Hindi ito para sa mga naghahanap ng shortcut. Mas bagay ito sa investors, traders, professionals, at market participants na gustong seryosohin ang pag-aaral ng securities market at maging mas responsible sa kanilang market decisions.

Pangwakas na Kaisipan

Ang reversal patterns ay magandang aralin dahil tinuturuan tayo nitong basahin ang pagbabago ng market behavior. Nakikita natin kung kailan humihina ang buyers, kung kailan nauubos ang sellers, at kung kailan posibleng magbago ang direksyon ng price.

Pero ang mas mahalagang lesson ay hindi lang ang pangalan ng pattern.

Hindi sapat na alam natin ang Head & Shoulders. Hindi sapat na makita natin ang Double Top. Hindi sapat na ma-recognize natin ang Cup and Handle o Wedge.

Ang tunay na tanong ay:

May confirmation ba?
May risk management ba?
May discipline ba?
May system ba?

Dahil sa huli, ang technical analysis ay hindi dapat gamitin para pilitin ang market sumunod sa gusto natin. Ginagamit ito para mas maingat nating maintindihan ang ipinapakita ng market.

Pattern muna, confirmation next.

At pagkatapos noon, risk management always.

URC just broke below every major support from the last decade — and that changes the entire conversation. This isn’t a normal correction anymore. The stock is now sitting in the same price zone where its 2012–2016 supercycle was born, and that dramatically shifts the probabilities for what comes next.

**1️⃣ URC is NOT simply in a downtrend.

URC is in a deep secular reset.**

This is no longer a cyclical dip or a routine correction.
URC has now completed what technicians call a multi-cycle reset, something that happens only once every 8–15 years.

A deep secular reset occurs when a stock simultaneously:

• breaks below its pandemic low,

• breaks its 2015–2016 consolidation base,

• breaks its 2018 support zone,

• breaks its 2020 recovery floor,

• and revisits price levels unseen since 2012.

When a stock retraces 100% of a decade-long supercycle, it returns to the price zone where the previous bull market began. For URC, that was the March 2012 → April 2015 → ₱234 peak cycle.

When prices return to the origin of a supercycle, historically two outcomes emerge:

Option A — Capitulation Bottom

Strong V-shaped bottom, followed by multi-year recovery.

Option B — Structural Breakdown

Stock enters a slow, sideways, undervaluation phase lasting years (example: TEL, SCC, MPI).

Right now, URC is between these two outcomes — but leaning toward bottom formation.

---

📌 2️⃣ The ₱57.80 and ₱53.50 zones now define the “Mother of All Supports.”

These are the two most important price levels on the entire URC chart:

✔️ ₱57.80 — February 2025 low

This is the market’s current pain threshold.

✔️ ₱53.50 — March 2012 low

This is the origin of the 2012–2015 URC supercycle.

Together, these levels form a powerful demand box, the type of zone where:

• long-term investors accumulate heavily,

• institutions quietly build positions,

• secular bottoms often form.

Although URC traded near ₱65–₱90 on lower timeframes during 2018–2023, the monthly candles never established price acceptance in that zone.

Because the monthly bodies never sat inside ₱65–₱90 — except for one panic wick in March 2020 — the zone never developed true price memory.

This means ₱65–₱90 is not a structural support or resistance area on the secular timeframe. Once URC completes its bottom at ₱53–₱58, the recovery move through ₱65–₱90 may be surprisingly fast due to the absence of institutional memory in that region.

But the ₱53–₱58 zone is where URC launched its largest multi-year bull run.

This is what makes it a high-probability reversal battleground.

---

📌 3️⃣ Is URC going to reverse, or continue downwards?

Based on all available data, the answer is becoming clearer:

⭐ URC is much closer to a major bottom than to a continuation breakdown.

Here’s the evidence:

✔️ Only one support remains: ₱53.50

If bears wanted to destroy URC, they should have broken this in 2023–2024 when momentum was stronger.

✔️ Monthly candles are shrinking

This reveals fading selling pressure — a classic end-of-bear-cycle behavior.

✔️ Volume is rising at historically low prices

This is accumulation behavior, not distribution.

✔️ The angle of decline is flattening

Steep drops → shallow drops → flattening = textbook bottoming sequence.

✔️ URC is now historically undervalued

Compared to 2012, URC today has:

• larger revenue base

• wider product portfolio

• stronger regional presence

• higher cash flows

• higher asset value

Yet it is trading near its 2012 price.
That is what secular bottoms look like.

---

📌 4️⃣ But is downtrend continuation still possible?

Yes — but only if:

❌ URC breaks ₱53.50 on a monthly close.

If this level breaks, URC enters:

• a valuation black hole

• no structural supports

• pure freefall territory

• market pricing in a deep structural issue

We still consider this scenario low probability, unless a macro shock hits consumer staples.

---

📌 5️⃣ What is the MOST LIKELY OUTCOME now?

⭐ **A multi-month basing pattern in the ₱58–₱65 zone,

followed by a major reversal in 2026.**

Expect:

• brief dips below ₱60,

• intramonth wicks toward ₱55–₱58,

• but no monthly close below ₱53.50 (unlikely).

This is what a stock looks like at the end of a 3-year secular downtrend, not the middle.

URC is transitioning from decline → to exhaustion → to bottom formation.

---

📌 6️⃣ What will confirm the reversal?

You need to see these three signals:

Minor (early) Signal

Break above ₱76.55
8-month MA flip.

Intermediate Signal

Break above ₱84.00
20-month MA recovery.

Major Structural Reversal

Break above ₱99.40
This is the midpoint of the 2021–2025 decline.
Once reclaimed, URC transitions into a new long-term bull cycle.

---

📌 FINAL ANSWER

🟩 URC is NOT likely to continue a deep downward fall unless ₱53.50 breaks.

The chart now shows:

• exhaustion,

• weakening selling pressure,

• bottoming behavior,

• and early signs of accumulation.

🟩 URC is entering a high-probability reversal zone (₱58 → ₱53).

This is where secular bottoms historically form.

🟩 URC has completed a full 2012–2025 retracement —

a major signal that the bear cycle is nearly exhausted.

🟨 Short-term outlook

Expect volatility, sideways chop, dips toward ₱58 or ₱55.

🟦 Medium- to long-term outlook

URC is positioning for a major 2026 recovery cycle.

🟥 Downtrend resumes ONLY if ₱53.50 breaks on a monthly close (unlikely).

URC SDA Reset: Our Self-Analysis, Realization, and the Fresh ₱35,000 Mastery Plan

Board Lot Warrior › Halal Core Growth Portfolio › SDA Mastery Series
December 2, 2025

After reviewing our URC trades, we realized something important: the hardest part of the stock market isn’t reading charts or building ladders—it’s following them. Kaya ngayong araw, we did a full self-assessment, confronted our emotional tendencies, and rebuilt a cleaner, more disciplined SDA plan starting with a fresh ₱35,000. Bukas, we begin again—properly this time.

Introduction

Today was one of the most important turning points sa SDA journey natin. URC closed at ₱63.30, and while reviewing our recent activity, we saw very clearly why our initial SDA ladder broke down:
hindi dahil mali ang strategy, but because we executed it against our own rules.

The good news? We caught the issue early.
And the better news? We created a clean, structured, and disciplined reset plan—one that will finally allow true SDA mastery to take place.

NILALAMAN

Introduction
1️⃣What We Discovered in Our Self-Analysis
2️⃣Our Key Realizations
3️⃣The Reset Plan We Prepared Today
4️⃣The Fresh Fund: URC SDA Mastery Fund — Phase 1
5️⃣What We Intend to Do Tomorrow (December 3, 2025)
6️⃣Moving Forward
7️⃣Closing Reflection

1. What We Discovered in Our Self-Analysis

While going through the URC records, isang consistent na pattern ang lumitaw:

We were afraid of missing the bottom.

Kahit may ladder, kahit may anchor, kahit may plan—we ended up overloading Layer 1 with 5,200 shares, far beyond the intended 550. Because of this:

• naubos ang bala,

• hindi nag-act ang deeper layers,

• napwersa tayong magbenta sa unang exit zone,

• na-disrupt ang anchor price,

• at nawala ang rhythm ng SDA execution.

In short:

Our plan was strong.
Our discipline was not.

And this is normal. SDA is designed to expose emotional tendencies. Today, we acknowledged them. Tomorrow, we correct them.

---

2. Our Key Realizations

A. Fear disguised as decisiveness leads to overbuying

Hindi dahil greedy tayo, kundi dahil gusto nating “makasakay agad.” But SDA does not reward early aggressiveness—it rewards structured patience.

B. A ladder only works if each level fires properly

No system can function when Layer 1 alone absorbs almost the entire position.

C. A clean mental reset is better than forcing old layers to behave

Kaya we decided:
the old URC position is locked; the new one starts fresh.

**D. The real mastery of SDA is not the math…

but the surrender to process.**

---

3. The Reset Plan We Prepared Today

To make this reset truly clean and disciplined, we prepared a brand-new SDA Accumulation Ladder built specifically for our fresh ₱35,000 capital. This ladder will follow URC all the way down using a new anchor at ₱63.30, with five equal layers that fire only when their exact price zones are reached. No combining layers, no over-sizing, and no emotional shortcuts—this is pure, textbook SDA execution. Below is the official accumulation ladder of the URC SDA Mastery Fund — Phase 1.

✅ UPDATED URC SDA Mastery Fund — ₱35,000 Fresh Accumulation Ladder

Anchor Price: ₱63.30
Total Capital: ₱35,000
Purpose: Clean discipline, no mixing with old URC position
Allocation: ₱7,000 per layer

---

Layer 1 — ₱63.30 to ₱61.95

Allocation: ₱7,000
Approx. Shares: 110
Trigger: First opportunity intraday tomorrow within this zone.

---

Layer 2 — ₱61.90 to ₱59.95

Allocation: ₱7,000
Approx. Shares: 110
Trigger: Activate only if price breaks below ₱61.90.

---

Layer 3 — ₱59.90 to ₱58.20

Allocation: ₱7,000
Approx. Shares: 120
Trigger: Mid-downcycle zone; execute only when reached.

---

Layer 4 — ₱58.10 to ₱56.30

Allocation: ₱7,000
Approx. Shares: 120
Trigger: Deep downtrend support; high-discipline layer.

---

Layer 5 — ₱56.20 to ₱54.50

Allocation: ₱7,000
Approx. Shares: 130
Trigger: Capitulation zone; strongest reward zone.

---

Target Total Shares:

110 + 110 + 120 + 120 + 130 =
➡️ 590 shares total under the ₱35,000 ladder.

Execution Rules:

• No anticipatory buying.

• No oversizing.

• No combining layers.

• Fire only when URC touches the exact price zone.

• This ladder exists independently of your old URC position.

---

We made the bold and correct decision to freeze our existing 2,650 shares of URC.
These will exit only when the SDA Exit Ladder is hit.

Then, we created a NEW, PURE, UNCONTAMINATED SDA system with a clean ₱58,000 starting capital.

This new plan has:

• a new anchor at ₱63.30

• five equal allocation layers

• no overlapping with the old position

• no re-anchoring confusion

• strict discipline per layer

• the same exit ladder for both old and new shares

This reset achieves the most important goal:

We removed emotional baggage from URC
and restored pure mechanical execution.

---

4. The Fresh Fund: URC SDA Mastery Fund — Phase 1

Today, we officially launched a new internal fund:

URC SDA Mastery Fund — Phase 1 (₱35,000 Restart)
A clean, disciplined version of SDA built for one purpose:
mastery through correct execution.

Layered at equal ₱7,000 allocations, the new ladder follows URC all the way down with no fear, no hesitation, no guessing—just pure adherence to system.

This is the first time we will do SDA EXACTLY AS DESIGNED.

---

5. What We Intend to Do Tomorrow (December 3, 2025)

Tomorrow, we begin again.

A. Enter the market calmly

No rush, no panic, no FOMO.
We wait for URC’s intraday dip or first movement within the Layer 1 range.

B. Execute Layer 1 ONLY

Strictly within ₱63.30 to ₱61.95.
No deviations, no oversizing, no “baka ito na ang bottom.”

C. Treat each layer as a pledge

Only fire when triggered.
Never fire early.
Never add extra.

D. Update the trade journal honestly

Every buy has a purpose.
Every purpose must be recorded.

E. Recommit to discipline

SDA mastery begins not with buying…
but with obeying.

Tomorrow is not about finding the perfect price.
It is about proving to ourselves that we can finally follow a plan—steadily, patiently, without emotional shortcuts.

---

6. Moving Forward

We now walk into the next URC cycle with clarity:

• The old URC position will recover through the exit ladder.

• The new URC SDA Mastery Fund will accumulate properly from the top down.

• Our decisions today have restored balance, structure, and confidence in the Halal Core Growth Portfolio.

This is our fresh start.
This is our disciplined start.
This is SDA done right.

---

7. Closing Reflection

Today, we faced our weaknesses honestly.
And instead of feeling defeated, we accepted it as part of the process.
This is how real traders grow.
This is how long-term portfolios become stronger.
This is how we become better stewards of the blessings entrusted to us.

We begin again tomorrow—
with humility, with patience, and with the renewed intention to follow our system faithfully.

Bismillah.

📌 Important Update: Shariah Compliance Status (As of November 26, 2025)

This note will remain in all Micro Stock Trader posts until further official guidance is released.

The Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE), through its Corporate Communications Office, has formally confirmed that the entire Shariah initiative has been temporarily paused. According to the PSE’s official email reply, the Exchange is currently conducting a thorough evaluation of the program’s impact, and no updated list of Shariah-compliant securities will be released until this internal review is completed.

As a result:

• The last officially recognized Shariah-compliant list remains the most recent published roster before the pause.

• All halal-based strategies within the Micro Stock Trader ecosystem—including the Halal Core Growth Portfolio, Ethical Turnaround Picks, and all Shariah-filtered investment frameworks—will continue to operate under a conservative, self-screened approach using:

  • business activity screens,

  • financial ratio filters, and

  • publicly available Shariah guidance from global Islamic indices.

• We will maintain extra caution and transparency in labeling any stock as halal-friendly during this pause.

This update serves as an ongoing advisory to the community. Once the PSE resumes official Shariah screening or publishes new guidance, this note will be updated or removed accordingly, in shā’ Allāh.

📌 Shariah Compliance Advisory (Updated Nov 26, 2025)

The PSE has confirmed that its Shariah screening program is currently paused, with no new lists to be released until their internal review is completed. Although news outlets reported quarterly updates up to mid-2025, these later lists are no longer accessible on the PSE website.

For now, the PSE’s Shariah-Compliant Securities page and all past lists have been removed from the public website. The December 25, 2024 list is the last official version in Micro Stock Trader’s possession, downloaded before the page was taken down, although other investors may still hold later copies such as the reported July 4, 2025 release.

All halal-focused strategies under Micro Stock Trader will use a conservative, self-screened approach until official guidance resumes, in shā’ Allāh.
