BTC in Greed Zone, Overbought RSI: Correction or Instant Pump?GM crypto bro's, this morning the fear and greed index remains in the greed zone at 73, while the Stoch RSI is in the overbought area.
BTC has made a slight correction this morning, and with the weekend approaching, which usually sees low volume and normal corrections, BTC may revisit the 64K - 63K range, or perhaps dip further into the 62K - 61K range.
However, an instant pump back to 69K is still a possibility. Keep in mind, the market is dynamic. Don’t FOMO, always manage your risk, and as always, this is Akki signing off—one chart, one love. Have a nice day and stay SAFU.

M&T Bank Corporation: Riding the Bullish WaveM&T Bank Corporation: Riding the Bullish Wave - M&T Bank Corporation (NYSE: MTB) Technical Analysis
H ello,
1 Introduction
Headquartered in Buffalo, New York, M&T Bank Corporation is a regional bank operating in the United States. While M&T is headquartered in New York, it has a significant presence in the state of Maryland and in several of the mid-Atlantic states. It was founded in 1856 as the "Manufacturers and Traders Bank." Over the years, it has changed and expanded its name and reach but has kept its main office in Buffalo. A "community banking" philosophy directs its operation of more than 700 bank branches across 12 states and the District of Columbia.
2 Current Price
The most recent figures put M&T Bank Corporation’s stock at $185.19. In the face of a jittery market, the stock has been steady—although, to be sure, we are coming up on a few weeks when the price has not moved much at all. Yet this level reflects what I would say is a pretty strong dose of investor confidence in the bank's growth in earnings, not just in the immediate future but also over the next several quarters.
3 Moving Averages
5-day Moving Average: $182.50
20-day Moving Average: $180.00
50-day Moving Average: $175.00
200-day Moving Average: $165.00
The price is currently above the 5-day, 20-day, and 50-day moving averages, indicating a strong short-term bullish trend. Additionally, the price being significantly above the 200-day moving average suggests long-term investor confidence. Historically, the stock has shown a tendency to bounce back from support levels, aligning with current technical signals pointing towards continued strength.
4 Technical Indicators
Relative Strength Index (RSI): 60 (Neutral to Bullish) – The RSI at 60 indicates that while the stock is not yet overbought, it is approaching higher levels where caution may be necessary. RSI values between 60-70 typically suggest strong upward momentum but may also signal a need to watch for overextension.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): 3.0 (Bullish) – A positive MACD suggests upward momentum, supported by increasing buy signals. The MACD line crossing above the signal line indicates potential for continued price gains.
Stochastic Oscillator: 75 (Overbought) – The oscillator shows that the stock is nearing overbought territory. With a reading above 70, investors should be aware of the possibility of a short-term pullback, though the overall trend remains upward.
The combination of these indicators points to a solid bullish stance, though the overbought reading on the Stochastic Oscillator advises traders to be cautious of potential corrections in the near term.
5 Chart Patterns
Candlestick Patterns: Recent patterns show a mix of bullish engulfing and doji, suggesting indecision in the market but with a slight bullish bias. The bullish engulfing pattern indicates strong buying pressure, while the doji reflects a potential hesitation among traders, which could result in consolidation or a reversal if a clear direction is not established soon.
Support Levels: $180.00, $175.00 – These levels have historically acted as strong support zones, offering potential buying opportunities for investors seeking to enter at lower risk points.
Resistance Levels: $190.00, $195.00 – The stock faces resistance at these levels, where selling pressure may increase. A breakout above $195.00 could open the path to higher price levels, potentially pushing the stock into new highs for the year.
Notably, the consolidation of recent price action near key resistance levels suggests that a breakout, if it occurs, could trigger significant upward momentum. However, failure to break these levels may result in a retracement towards support.
6 Volume and Liquidity
Recent trading volumes have been above average, which supports the upward trend. The higher volume, particularly during price increases, reflects increasing investor interest and confidence in the stock. The liquidity of M&T Bank Corporation is robust, allowing for large trades to be executed without significantly affecting the stock price. This makes it an attractive option for both retail and institutional investors.
7 Industry and Market Sentiment
With interest rates stabilizing and the overall economy in better shape, we have seen a recovery in the financial sector. M&T is a regional bank, and as such, it has a pretty good setting from which to benefit as rates continue to rise—something we're anticipating. Most regional banks—even M&T in particular—have a pretty nice net interest margin between what they pay depositors and what they earn from loans when rates rise. And when you have a bank like M&T that has a pretty nice net interest margin, it also has very stable earnings, largely because it is a community-focused bank that lends to small and mid-sized businesses—who also have, by the way, relatively low default rates on the whole.
8 Conclusion
Currently, M&T Bank Corporation's stock is in a tremendously solid short-term uptrend, with several important indicators suggesting a "buy" recommendation. But the stock is starting to approach "overbought" territory, which means it could be setting up to either go sideways for a while or pull back. Good support levels to look for should this happen are around $180.00 and $175.00. If you're an investor looking for an entry point in the stock, those would be tempting prices at which to buy. On the other hand, if the stock can push and hold above $190.00, we could start to talk about a potential target of $195.00.

The Hidden Investment Gem in Singapore? With the weakening of SGD, now might just be the perfect time to look into stocks listed in the Singapore market. While doing so, I noticed that one company that has significant exposure to the Electric Vehicle (EV) has been under the radar for too long.
This company, EuroSports Global Limited (SGX: 5G1), is the specialist in distribution of ultra-luxury and luxury automobiles and the provision of after-sales services. How luxurious, you may ask? Well, super cars such as Lamborghini and Touring Superleggera (2012, Asean region) have been in their distributional portfolio since 2002 (Singapore) and 2018 (Indonesia).
Beyond such luxurious brands, EuroSports had a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Scorpio Electric Pte. Ltd. (SEC) to get involved into the next-generation motorcycle that is fully electric in nature.This is followed by the launch of Scorpio Electric X1 on a global scale - which allows Eurosports to tap into the global EV market.
In their homeground, Singapore, EuroSports also secured a Special Purpose License from Land Transport Authority of Singapore (LTA) for their flagship electric maxi-scooter, which is the X1 model we just mentioned.
In other words, the X1 model is now allowed to be on the roads of Singapore.
This is the very first step of X1 to conquer the electric maxi-scooter, given the premium specification, design and pricing proposition (USD9,800) in the market. We think X1 will be the significant revenue and growth driver for EuroSports ahead.
To conclude, this is certainly a valuable gem for investors to look at.
BTCUSD—Small Retrace Before 65K? or incoming pump ?GM crypto bro's, back to working day! This morning, fear and greed index is at 48, neutral zone, while the Stoch RSI is still heading towards the overbought area.
Price action suggests a small retrace to around 61K might happen today, but the bigger picture still leans towards 65K. Keep in mind the market is dynamic—don’t get FOMO. Always manage your risk, and as always, this is Akki signing off—one chart, one love. Have a nice day and stay SAFU.
QQQ Weekly Outlook (SPY) for OCT 14, 2024A week ago, I provided a weekly long-term view of QQQ (link below):
I annotated that by looking at the weekly time frame, we can note that QQQ has been bouncing off the weekly trendline (TL) that started back in JAN 2023.
It has touched and bounced off that trendline 3x so far:
-MARCH 2023
-OCTOBER 2023
-AUGUST 2024
We started OCT 7th week around 487 and closed end of week at 493.36
Based on technical analysis, QQQ is in a triangle pattern with the top trendline starting on JULY 17th and then hitting it again several other times:
-SEPT 26
-OCT 9
-OCT 10
-OCT 11
The bottom trendline starts on AUG 5th and touches again on:
-SEPT 6
-SEPT 9
-SEPT 10
-SEPT 11
Another TL was drawn on SEPT 11 up which price has been respecting:
-OCT 2
-OCT 3
-OCT 4
-OCT 7
-OCT 8
-OCT 11
This has cause price to get tighter and tighter against JULY 17th TOP TL.
In addition, price has been making Higher Lows (HL) and Higher Highs (HH) starting from AUG 5th until current date. The following are the HH/HL:
HL: AUG 5/ SEPT 6 - 11 / OCT 1 - 3
HH: AUG 22 / SEPT 26 / OCT 11
The GAP that was created between JULY 16 - 17 was filled on SEPT 26 causing the market to GAP REJECT and push price down.
Price has once again come back to that gap and closed above it.
GAPS can be used in several ways. One being the initial rejection. As price is back above it again, what was once resistance / supply can now be potentially turned into support / demand. The second method can be the INVERSION of a GAP.
Utilizing my longer thesis from last week along with the new / current data, a bullish sentiment is formed going into this week for the following reason:
-Two bottom TLs have been respected and acted as support
-Higher Lows/Higher Highs are being made
-Price closed above the GAP that that acted initially as resistance and now turned into support (inversion)
-No economic catalyst for bearish scenario 'yet'
-Price had a strong close above the 5 and 8 EMA on the daily time frame.
Price Targets:
PT1: $498.44
PT2: $500
PT3: $501.01
PT4: $503.07
PT5: $503.52
PT6: $505
This is NOT financial advice but my opinion on the market.

(Transcript) NASDAQ: ATPC | Building on the Solar Energy Game Welcome to a new era of opportunity in Malaysia’s renewable energy sector. As the country accelerates its transition to clean energy, solar power stands out as a promising area of growth and investment.
For investors looking for sustainable and profitable ventures, Agape ATP Corporation (NASDAQ: ATPC) offers an exciting entry point into this booming market.
Malaysia's government is driving the adoption of renewable energy with ambitious targets: 31% of energy from renewables by 2025 and 40% by 2035.
Solar power is at the forefront of this transition. Thanks to initiatives like the Large Scale Solar (LSS) programme and the Corporate Green Power Programme (CGPP), solar energy costs have plummeted, becoming 53% cheaper than fossil fuels in recent years.
This shift opens up substantial investment opportunities, especially as demand for sustainable energy sources grows.
Malaysia is also becoming a digital hub in Southeast Asia, with data centres playing a critical role.
These facilities require stable and reliable energy, presenting a unique opportunity for solar power. As data centres continue to expand, their energy needs are aligning with the capabilities of solar energy, especially through virtual power purchase agreements (VPPA).
By integrating solar power into their energy mix, data centres can not only lower their operational costs but also meet their sustainability goals. This makes solar a crucial partner in powering the digital age.
For investors, ATPC represents a strategic opportunity to capitalise on Malaysia's solar boom.
The company’s recent expansion under the LSS4 programme has increased our renewable energy capacity, positioning them as a key player in supplying clean power to industrial clients and data centres.
ATPC’s latest solar developments includes the collaboration with Phoenix Green Energy to drive the development and commercialisation of cutting-edge solar power solutions in Malaysia and expansion into Sabah’s solar farming sector.
This collaboration focuses on advancing a diverse portfolio of solar products, including amorphous thin-film solar panels, which are designed to support various applications, particularly in power production.
As Malaysia pushes forward with its energy transition, the demand for solar solutions will continue to grow. ATPC’s recent projects are already generating returns, with the potential for significant long-term growth as more data centres and industrial clients opt for renewable energy sources.
Now is a great timing to look into ATPC as a long-term yet sustainable investment.
BTCUSD—Bounce Back to 65K Incoming? CPI Data Drives DropGM crypto bro's, fear and greed index is in the fear zone at 32 this morning, with Stoch RSI now sitting in the oversold area.
BTC dropped again this morning, just as I mentioned in yesterday’s update, touching the 59K–58K range. This may have been caused by the higher-than-expected CPI data release. Now, will BTC drop even further? Based on this morning's price action, the probability seems to lean more towards a pump to 65K rather than another drop to 58K.
Keep in mind the market is dynamic—don’t get FOMO. Always manage your risk, and as always, this is Akki signing off—one chart, one love. Have a nice day and stay SAFU.

(Shared) HTCR is a Compelling Investment Opportunity in NasdaqHeartCore Enterprises, Inc. (HTCR) has positioned itself as a leader in the enterprise software and digital transformation space, making it an intriguing target for investors seeking exposure to innovative technology and growing markets.
Listed on the NASDAQ, HeartCore is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, and has diversified its business model to provide a range of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions, data analytics, and digital transformation services, along with a unique consulting service for assisting Japanese companies in listing on U.S. stock exchanges.
Our investment thesis for HTCR is as below.
Dominance in the Japanese CMS Market. HTCR’s Content Management System (CMS) platform has been the top-ranked solution in Japan for nine consecutive years, holding a 15.1% market share according to ITR Corporation. This leadership is a testament to HTCR ability to deliver innovative and reliable solutions, with over 700 Japanese companies using its CMS platform.
Strategic Acquisitions Bolster U.S. Expansion. The previous acquisition of Sigmaways and Sabatini Global has expanded HTCR footprint into the U.S. market, creating new avenues for growth. These acquisitions have allowed the company to integrate advanced AI and software engineering capabilities into its offerings, enhancing its competitiveness and enabling it to penetrate new markets.
Go IPO Business Segment. A unique aspect of HTCR business is its Go IPO service, which helps Japanese companies navigate the process of listing on U.S. stock exchanges. As of 2024, HeartCore has secured 14 clients for its Go IPO services, with four of these successfully completing their listings on Nasdaq (According to a research note by Lighthouse Research) This consulting business has generated substantial revenue, contributing 28% to HTCR’s 2023 revenue. It also offers an opportunity for HeartCore to build strong relationships with companies that may require ongoing digital solutions, fostering long-term partnerships and cross-selling opportunities.
Focus on AI and Digital Transformation. HTCR’s AI software development division, launched in collaboration with its subsidiary Sigmaways, is another promising growth vector. This division focuses on developing AI-based solutions that cater to evolving client needs, such as predictive analytics, robotic process automation (RPA), and enhanced customer engagement strategies.
As the global customer experience management market is projected to grow at a 15.2% CAGR, reaching $47.8 billion by 2032, HeartCore is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend.
Financial Overview. HTCR’s revenue mix has evolved significantly, with its software business now contributing 60% to overall revenue, and the remaining 40% coming from consulting services like Go IPO. Despite challenges in its consulting segment in early 2024, the company is projected to recover in the latter half of the year, driven by gross proceeds from warrant sales and a strong push for new customer acquisitions in its software business.
The company has also shown prudent financial management with a focus on cost efficiency, achieving profitable quarters within its software division. With a clean balance sheet and additional capital inflows expected from ongoing IPO consulting deals, HeartCore is well-positioned to pursue further acquisitions, expand its product offerings, and reinforce its market presence.
Investment Outlook
HTCR offers a compelling investment opportunity for those seeking exposure to a company that is actively growing in the digital transformation space, supported by a diversified revenue model and strategic U.S. expansion. With its market leadership in Japan, robust AI initiatives, and potential for further growth through strategic acquisitions, HeartCore stands poised to deliver value to its shareholders.
The company’s strong customer base, combined with its innovative Go IPO services, makes HTCR a stock worth considering for long-term growth potential amidst the evolving tech landscape.
BTCUSD—Price Action Targeting 58K–59K, Market Turning RedGM crypto bro's, Fear and Greed Index is in the fear zone this morning at 39, with Stoch RSI dropping back into the oversold area.
As I remind you every day, always be cautious of potential dumps. In yesterday’s market update, I expected BTC to visit 65K first, but the market had other plans, dropping to 60K. Now, where’s BTC heading next? Price action suggests a potential visit to the 59K–58K range, around the red zone, with a possible slight reclaim to 61K.
Keep in mind that the market is dynamic—don’t get FOMO. Always manage your risk, and as always, this is Akki signing off—one chart, one love. Have a nice day and stay SAFU.
BTCUSD—Sideways Action with 65K Target, keep Stay Alert GM crypto bro's, the market is moving sideways this morning with the Fear and Greed Index at a neutral 49, and Stoch RSI exiting the oversold zone.
Overall, the target remains the same at 65K, but the risk of a dump still exists. Keep in mind that the market is dynamic—don’t get FOMO. Always manage your risk, and as always, this is Akki signing off—one chart, one love. Have a nice day and stay SAFU.
A BloomZ Inc. (NASDAQ: BLMZ) Update: Growth, Strategic Alliances
BloomZ Inc. (NASDAQ: BLMZ) , a Japanese audio production and voice actor management company, has been making notable moves in 2024. The company, which went public on NASDAQ in July, has been actively expanding its operations and forming key strategic alliances. Recently, BloomZ reported a significant 39.3% year-on-year increase in its audio production and talent management business, alongside a remarkable 209.8% rise in its internet business.
In terms of strategic growth, BloomZ has entered into several alliances. In September, it announced a business partnership with CrossVision to jointly develop entertainment offerings. This comes alongside a separate collaboration with sonilude Inc., focusing on producing original animation projects, which further underscores BloomZ's commitment to expanding its creative footprint.
However, BloomZ has also faced challenges. The company received a notification from Nasdaq regarding its market value, signalling the need for improved financial performance to meet minimum listing requirements.
Despite these hurdles, the company's proactive growth strategy through partnerships and sector expansion suggests it is aiming to overcome these obstacles and solidify its position in the entertainment industry.

BTCUSD Midweek Outlook—Pump to 65K Likely with Small Dump RiskGM crypto bro's, this morning, the Fear and Greed Index is neutral at 49, while the Stoch RSI has started to exit the oversold area.
Yesterday's candle (07/10) touched 64K but dropped back to 62K this morning. What’s next for BTC? Based on price action, there's a high probability for another pump up to 65K. Though a deeper dump is possible, I personally think the pump probability is higher.
