Jimmy Series Trade Review #5 – MREIT (Exit at ₱13.46, Sept 19, 2025)

Board Lot Warrior › Jimmy Series › ₱5,000 Seed › Trade Review › MREIT Block Sale Flush Exit at ₱13.46

Candlestick chart of MREIT as of September 19, 2025 showing a large red candle breakdown below the ₱13.80 support with heavy volume, leading to an exit trade at ₱13.46 under the Jimmy Series rules.
Exit si MREIT sa Jimmy Series dahil sa block-sale flush at breakdown sa ₱13.80, cut executed sa ₱13.46 para protektahan ang kapital.

Minsan ang pinakamalakas na desisyon ay ang pagbitiw. Sa linggong ito, tinamaan si MREIT ng block-sale flush na nagdala ng breakdown sa ₱13.80 support. Ayon sa Jimmy Series rules, hindi ito panahon ng pagkapit kundi ng pag-cut — kaya nag-exit tayo sa ₱13.46 para manatiling buo ang bala para sa susunod na laban.

2️⃣ Hybrid 10-Step Strategy Evaluation

Using the refined evaluation, MREIT scored 16/100 (Bearish – Invalidated Trade). The previously neutral-bullish bias is no longer valid after the breakdown.

1. Market State & Trend Context – Breakdown mode, bearish. Score: 1/10

3. Power Bars, Price Behavior & Volume – Heavy red candle + huge volume flush. Score: 1/10

9. Position Size Planning – Controlled size (100 shares), minimized damage. Score: 5/10

10. Ethical/Counter-Trend Considerations – REIT, ethical, but mistimed. Score: 3/10

➡️ Total Score – MREIT: 16/100 (Bearish – Invalidated Trade)


3️⃣ Hatol ng Batangueñong Trader

Mga kasama, hindi ito simpleng wick flush — ito ay block sale flush. Dahil sa ₱2.24B block sale ng Megaworld sa MREIT (168.63M shares @ ₱13.28, 4.5% discount), bumigay ang presyo sa ₱13.80 support kasabay ng super strong volume. Ang exit sa ₱13.46 ay hindi pagkakamali, kundi pagsunod sa disiplina. Wag tayong mahulog sa ilusyon na “fundamentals strong” kaya immune sa breakdown. Sa trading, price + volume ang final judge.


4️⃣ Next Steps (Tactical Plan | LIVE)

  • Immediate Watch Zone: ₱13.20–₱13.40 for potential stabilization.

  • Validation: Look for green recovery candle with moderate volume next 1–2 weeks.

  • Tactical Stance: No chasing; wait for proper base or reversal signals.


5️⃣ Updated Layered Accumulation Plan

  • Layer 1 @ ₱13.92 → ✅ executed pero exited @ ₱13.46.

  • Reset entry plan: ₱13.20–₱13.40, but only with stabilization + green confirmation.


6️⃣ Updated Phased Exit Plan

  • Exit Plan triggered at ₱13.80 breakdown, position closed.

  • No active exits left.


7️⃣ Final Trade Recommendation

Final Trade Recommendation: SELL (Exit Executed at ₱13.46)
Recommendation: Exit breakdown confirmed by heavy block-sale flush volume.
Risk Management: Preserved capital, avoided deeper drawdown.
Profit-Taking Strategy: N/A (cut loss trade, no profits).
Position Size Strategy: Prepare fresh position sizing for re-entry when conditions reset.


8️⃣ Closing Reflection

Megaworld’s block sale isn’t a sign of weakness — it’s a normal REIT playbook move para palakihin ang float at ihanda si MREIT sa susunod na asset infusion. Fundamentals remain intact: float now 40%, GLA expansion target pulled forward to 2027, capital stock increase to ₱8B. Pero kahit gaano kaganda ang kwento, kung price + volume sabay na bumasag sa suporta, kailangan mag-cut. Capital preserved means may bala pa tayo sa susunod na laban.


9️⃣ Tactical Alert

Defensive stance: Wag habol, bantayan ₱13.20–₱13.40. Re-entry only if stabilization + recovery signal shows.


🔟 LIVE TRADE LOG – Jimmy Series (as of Sept 19, 2025)

  • Trade #5 – MREIT (Sept 17, 2025): 100 shares @ ₱13.92 → ❌ Exited Sept 19 @ ₱13.46.
    Status: Closed | Loss: ~₱46.00 | Capital preserved for redeployment.

  • Result: -₱55.44 net realized loss (-1.1% ng seed capital).


Our review of the Megaworld sells P2.24-B block of MREIT at 4.5% discount to market | Philstar.com September 19, 2025 article by Merkado Barkada:

This Merkado Barkada piece is a concise but insightful take on Megaworld’s (MEG) ₱2.24B block sale of MREIT shares. It explains the mechanics well: 168.63 million shares were sold at ₱13.28 each, representing a 4.5% discount to the prior close, with settlement scheduled for September 19, 2025. Importantly, the sale boosts MREIT’s public float to 40%, comfortably above the 33% minimum threshold required for REITs.

The article also ties the move to MREIT’s aggressive expansion plan—hitting 1 million sqm of GLA by 2027, three years ahead of target. Supporting this, MREIT plans to increase its authorized capital stock from ₱5B to ₱8B and issue up to 1.36B new shares for future capital raising and property-for-share swaps.

What’s valuable in the commentary is the contextual framing: MB points out that block sales are now the preferred mechanism for REIT sponsors to prep for asset infusions. While such sales once carried negative sentiment (seen as dilution or desperation), the market has come to accept them as part of the REIT growth cycle. The bottom line is clear—this isn’t a red flag but a standard playbook move, suggesting MEG is positioning MREIT for its next wave of expansion.

📌 Jimmy Series implication:

  • Sa tactical side (₱5,000 Seed Portfolio), hindi natin babaguhin agad ang Layered Accumulation Plan or Phased Exit Plan unless may big move sa charts.

  • Basically: short-term risk of pressure, long-term reinforcement of growth story.

A collection of faith-driven investing lessons and reflections archived under Subok sa Puso.

Ang “Subok sa Puso, Hindi Lang ng Strategy” ay nagsimula sa isang tanong: “Kung biglang dumating ang isang milyong piso, susunod pa rin ba ang puso sa plano?” Mula sa biglaang biyaya, isinilang ang isang serye na hindi lang tungkol sa pag-invest—kundi sa pagsubok ng puso gamit ang disiplina ng Hybrid 10-Step Strategy para sa long-term at halal-conscious na trading.

The day biglaang rizq arrived without condition—and the test of the heart began.

Isang tanong ang pumasok sa isip ko habang nakatingin sa chart—“Anong gagawin ko kung may mag-abot sa akin ng isang milyong piso, cash, at walang hinihinging kapalit?”

Walang kondisyon. Walang tanong. Walang habol.

Isang milyong pisong biglaang dumating.
Hindi galing sa sugal. Hindi hiram.
Malinis. Legal. Bigay.
Rizq—kung tutuusin.

Pero ang tanong ay hindi lang “anong bibilhin ko?”
O “saan ko i-invest?”
Kundi—“Kaya ko bang panindigan ang 10-Step Strategy ko, kung ganito kalaki ang hawak ko?”

Nang dumating ang isang milyong piso na walang hinihinging kapalit, hindi ito basta tinanggap. Ito ay tinanggap na may pagtanaw ng utang na loob, panalangin, at pagnanais gamitin sa tama. Kaya't ito ang naging bahagi ng allocation—hindi lang bilang isang strategist, kundi bilang isang Muslim na mulat sa bigat ng pananagutan.

1. Panimula

Magandang araw po, mga kababayan! Eto na naman tayo para sa isa pang lingguhang pagsusuri gamit ang ating paboritong diskarte — ang Hybrid 10-Step Strategy 5.0 – Long-Term Focus Variant.

Ngayong linggo, ang titingnan nating stock ay ang DDMP REIT Inc. (DDMPR) — isa sa mga listed real estate investment trusts (REITs) sa PSE. Medyo matagal na itong nasa ilalim ng pressure, pero lately may sinyales na baka bumubuo ng base.

TRADE DETAILS:
📅 Date: July 11, 2025
🏢 Stock: DDMP REIT Inc. (DDMPR)
📈 Exchange: PSE
📊 Timeframe: Weekly
🔚 Closing Price: ₱1.07
🔺 High: ₱1.08
🔻 Low: ₱1.05
📉 20-MA (Short-Term): ₱1.06
📈 200-MA (Long-Term): ₱1.31

Tara’t silipin kung bibili ba tayo o dadaan lang, gamit ang Hybrid 10-Step Strategy.


2. Stock Price Review Gamit ang Hybrid 10-Step Strategy

✅ Step 1: Identify Market State & Trend Context

Patuloy pa rin ang long-term downtrend: ang 200-MA ay malayo sa current price, nasa ₱1.31, habang ang presyo ay ₱1.07 lang.
Pero short-term, may mid-range consolidation at medyo flat ang 20-MA — na nagiging base-building stage ang vibes.
Verdict: Wait (Potential base-forming, pero di pa confirmed reversal)


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

📌 Ang presyo ay medyo dikit sa 20-MA at 50-MA, at pare-parehong nagka-cluster sa ₱1.05–₱1.08 area.
📉 Still below 200-MA = long-term undervalued.
Verdict: Wait/Scout Entry Zones (Maganda para sa tactical buys)


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

Walang explosive power bars, pero may consistent na volume buildup.
Nagpapakita ng stability kahit di pa makapanibagong high.
Verdict: Accumulate on dips


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

No breakout yet above recent highs (₱1.08). Pero ok ang formation para sa test buys near support.
Verdict: Tactical Entry ok near ₱1.03–₱1.05


✅ Step 5: Stop-Loss Policy Based on Thesis Violation

Suggested stop loss kung babasagin ang ₱1.00 na psychological support.
Verdict: Set hard stop below ₱1.00


✅ Step 6: Color Change Signals for Trend Validation

No strong color change candle, pero nagtutuloy-tuloy ang tight candles na nagpo-point sa potential shift.
Verdict: Monitor for green candle breakout above ₱1.10


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

REIT ito kaya stable income, mababa ang volatility. Exit target range ₱1.15 to ₱1.25 kung tuluyang mabasag ang ₱1.10.
Verdict: Target ₱1.15–₱1.25 for gradual exits


✅ Step 8: Re-Entry Plans After Market Dips

Pwede mag-re-enter kung bumalik sa ₱1.00–₱1.02 range with volume support.
Verdict: Plan Re-entry only if near ₱1.00 support holds


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

Pwede tayong magsimula sa tactical small lot then magdagdag kung may confirmation.
Verdict: Small initial position ok; add on breakout


✅ Step 10: Ethical and Counter-Trend Opportunity Considerations

Pasok sa long-term undervalued zone; walang dalawang sunod na gap-downs pero magandang obserbahan for ethical test buy.
Verdict: Pwede sa ethical tactical position (kung conservative)


3. Hatol sa Stock: Bibili ba o Dadaan Lang?

Final Stock Recommendation: HOLD / ACCUMULATE ON DIPS

Recommendation: Tactical test buys sa ₱1.03–₱1.05 habang nasa base-forming zone.
Risk Management: Set stop loss below ₱1.00
Profit-Taking Strategy: Exit range ₱1.15–₱1.25
Position Size Strategy: Start small, add kung mag-breakout above ₱1.10 with volume


4. Next Move: Plano Pag Tumama o Sumablay

🔹 Short-Term Traders: Wait for breakout above ₱1.10 bago mag-full position.
🔹 Long-Term Investors: Pwede nang bumili ng paunti-unti basta’t may risk management.
🔹 Existing Holders: Pwede nang hintayin ang ₱1.15–₱1.25 for gradual profit taking.

🚨 Final Thought: Ang tunay na bottoming ay proseso, hindi instant. Mas mainam mag-abang ng kumpirmadong reversal bago all-in. 🚨


5. Layered Accumulation Plan (₱5,000 Capital | 1 board lot = 1,000 shares)

📌 Target Board Lot Size per Layer: 1,000 shares
📌 Approximate Buying Power per Entry: ~₱1,050–₱1,150 per lot including fees
📌 Maximum: 4 board lots = 4,000 shares

1️⃣ Layer 1 – Initial Test Buy
📍 Price: ₱1.05
📦 Shares: 1,000
💰 Est. Cost: ₱1,050 + fees ≈ ₱1,100

2️⃣ Layer 2 – Add Near Support Zone
📍 Price: ₱1.03
📦 Shares: 1,000
💰 Est. Cost: ₱1,030 + fees ≈ ₱1,080

3️⃣ Layer 3 – Add on Reversal Signal
📍 Price: ₱1.10
📦 Shares: 1,000
💰 Est. Cost: ₱1,100 + fees ≈ ₱1,150

💼 Total Capital Allocation: ₱4,540–₱4,600
👉 May ₱400–₱500 buffer para sa transaction fees o contingency.


🎯 Phased Exit Plan (For 4,000 shares max position)

1️⃣ ₱1.15 – First Partial Exit
📦 Sell 1,000 shares
💰 Lock in gains (~₱0.10 per share gain kung nakapasok sa ₱1.05 level)

2️⃣ ₱1.20 – Second Partial Exit
📦 Sell 1,000 shares
💰 Mid-term profit, especially kung average cost nasa ₱1.06–₱1.08

3️⃣ ₱1.25 – Final Exit
📦 Sell 1,000 shares
💰 Maximize gains before potential resistance

4️⃣ Retain Last 1,000 shares (Optional Hold)
📌 If dividends remain steady and price sustains above ₱1.25, hold remaining shares for passive income.


🛑 Stop-Loss Reminder:
If price drops and closes below ₱1.00 on strong volume, consider cutting full position or reducing exposure aggressively.

BETA Portfolio Rebalancing: February 2025 Strategy Amid PSEi Bear Market

Contents:

  • Introduction
  • PSEi Market Situationer: February 2025 Outlook
  • Current BETA Portfolio Analysis
  • Recommended Adjustments for February 2025
  • Final Portfolio Strategy for February 2025

Introduction

The Philippine Stock Exchange Index (PSEi) has officially entered bear market territory, declining by 22.4% from its recent high of 7,554 in October. This downturn is attributed to disappointing macroeconomic data and a major index rebalancing, leaving investors searching for catalysts to revive the market.

In light of these developments, it's crucial to reassess our BETA Portfolio to ensure it remains resilient and well-positioned for future market recoveries. Our strategy this month focuses on optimizing growth stock allocations, adjusting REIT positions, and maintaining defensive dividend stocks.

BETA Portfolio rebalancing strategy for February 2025, focusing on stock adjustments and risk management.

Optimizing the BETA Portfolio amid PSEi market downturn



PSEi Market Situationer: February 2025 Outlook

As of January 31, 2025, the PSEi closed at 5,862.59, marking its lowest level in over two years. This decline reflects the impact of a slowing economy, persistent inflation, and recent storms. Jonathan Ravelas, senior adviser at Reyes Tacandong & Co., noted, "We were affected by sticky inflation, the impact of the storms and there appears to be no clear positive support for growth in 2025, except for the infrastructure spending of the government."

The recent index rebalancing, which saw the inclusion of China Banking Corp. and AREIT Inc., also contributed to market volatility. AP Securities Inc. research head Alfred Benjamin Garcia explained that the combined free-float weighted market capitalization of these new entries required adjustments across all index stocks.

Given these factors, opportunities will be selective. It's essential to focus on growth stocks demonstrating technical resilience, defensive dividend stocks for stability, and maintaining liquidity to capitalize on potential bullish reversals.


Current BETA Portfolio Analysis

Our BETA Portfolio is currently 98% invested, with only 2% held in cash, limiting our flexibility for opportunistic trades. The current allocations are:

  • Growth Stocks: 32% – Positioned for long-term appreciation but lacking confirmed breakouts.

  • REITs: 39% – Providing passive income but overweighted in a market where capital appreciation is uncertain.

  • Dividend Stocks: 27% – Defensive holdings offering stability amid PSEi volatility.

To optimize risk exposure, increase liquidity, and reallocate capital to high-conviction trades, we recommend the following adjustments.

DDMPR January 21, 2025, Chart Evaluation Using the Hybrid 10-Step Strategy

Contents:

  • Overview of DDMPR’s Market Context
  • Chart Evaluation Using the Hybrid 10-Step Strategy
  • Final Thoughts

Overview of DDMPR’s Market Context

DDMP REIT Inc. (DDMPR) closed at ₱1.06 on January 21, 2025, with a -2.75% decline from the previous session. The day’s high was ₱1.08, and the low was ₱1.05, aligning closely with key moving averages. Volume stood at 3.022 million, indicating moderate trading interest.

A critical factor in today’s market action is the ex-dividend date of DDMPR. Historically, REITs tend to decline after the ex-date as investors adjust for the dividend payout. Let’s analyze this chart using our Hybrid 10-Step Trading Strategy to assess its potential movement.

DDMP REIT Inc. daily candlestick chart showing the stock's closing price at ₱1.06 on January 21, 2025. The 20-day moving average (₱1.05) and 200-day moving average (₱1.09) are displayed, indicating a test of resistance at the 200-MA before pulling back. Trading volume is at 3.022 million shares.

DDMPR’s January 21, 2025, stock chart showing key technical levels post-ex-dividend.



Step 1: Identifying Market State & Trend Context

  • 200-day MA (₱1.09): The price is still below the long-term moving average, indicating an overall downtrend.
  • 20-day MA (₱1.05): The stock has been consolidating around this short-term support level.
  • Trend Context: After a prolonged sideways phase, the stock has been attempting a short-term recovery but faces resistance near the 200-day MA.

📌 Conclusion: DDMPR is in an early trend reversal attempt but still struggling to break key resistances.


Step 2: Assessing Price Position Relative to Key Levels

  • The closing price (₱1.06) is above the 20-day MA (₱1.05) but below the 200-day MA (₱1.09).
  • A successful break and close above ₱1.09 could confirm a potential reversal.

📌 Conclusion: Caution is needed, as failure to hold above ₱1.05 could signal a pullback.


Step 3: Power Bars & Retracement Strength

  • The recent bullish push showed higher-than-average volume, but today’s red candle signals profit-taking.
  • The current retracement is moderate, suggesting this could be a temporary pullback.

📌 Conclusion: Watch for a green power bar in the next few sessions for confirmation.


Step 4: Entry Confirmation Using Technical Alignment

  • The ideal entry would be near the ₱1.05 support zone with a confirmation signal (e.g., bounce with strong volume).
  • Breakout Entry: A close above ₱1.09 could confirm bullish momentum.

📌 Conclusion: No clear entry signal yet, but potential setups exist if it holds above ₱1.05.


Step 5: Tactical Stop-Loss Adjustments

  • A logical stop-loss would be below ₱1.03 (recent swing low).
  • If it breaks below ₱1.05 decisively, a deeper correction may follow.

📌 Conclusion: Risk management is crucial—tight stops recommended below ₱1.03.


Step 6: Color Change as Secondary Confirmation

  • The price needs a green candle tomorrow to confirm strength.
  • If the next session turns red, it may indicate further weakness.

📌 Conclusion: A color change to green at this level would be a bullish signal.


Step 7: Profit-Taking Strategy

  • If entered at ₱1.05, potential profit-taking zones:
    • Partial Exit at ₱1.10 (above 200-day MA resistance and adjusted for transaction cost)
    • Full Exit at ₱1.15 (previous resistance)

📌 Conclusion: Short-term traders may consider scaling out if price struggles at ₱1.10.


Step 8: Re-Entry at Secondary Pullbacks

  • Best re-entry: If price pulls back near ₱1.03-₱1.05 and holds.
  • Aggressive traders could attempt a momentum breakout trade if it surges past ₱1.09.

📌 Conclusion: Monitor for re-entry opportunities around ₱1.05.


Step 9: Tactical Position Management

  • Shallow retracement (₱1.05-₱1.06) → Can consider larger positions.
  • Deeper retracement (₱1.03) → Smaller position with tight stop.

📌 Conclusion: Size positions accordingly based on retracement depth.


Step 10: Counter-Trend Trading Considerations

  • If the price fails to hold ₱1.05, a counter-trend short may be possible down to ₱1.00.
  • However, trading against a REIT’s support levels can be risky.

📌 Conclusion: Avoid counter-trend shorts unless a major breakdown occurs.
