Transforming Urban Mobility Through Innovation (MUST READ)In the early 21st century, urban transportation underwent a significant transformation, largely due to the innovative approaches of Uber, Grab, and Ryde. These companies not only redefined ride-hailing but also expanded into comprehensive platforms offering diverse services. Uber – From a Simple Idea to a Global Phenomenon Uber's inception traces back to 2008 in Paris, where co-founders Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp, after facing difficulties in hailing a cab, envisioned a service that allowed users to request rides via a mobile application. This concept materialised in 2009 with the launch of UberCab in San Francisco, providing a platform that connected passengers with drivers of luxury vehicles. The service quickly gained popularity for its convenience and efficiency. By 2010, Uber had officially launched in San Francisco, and in 2011, it expanded to New York City, marking the beginning of its rapid global growth. The introduction of UberX in 2012, which allowed non-professional drivers to offer rides, significantly reduced costs and broadened the user base. Despite facing regulatory challenges and competition, Uber continued to innovate, introducing services like UberEats for food delivery and Uber Freight for logistics. In 2019, Uber went public, solidifying its position as a leader in the ride-hailing industry. As of November 2024, Uber's market capitalisation stands at approximately $154.24 billion, reflecting its substantial growth and influence in the global market. Grab – Southeast Asia's Super-App Evolution In Southeast Asia, Grab's journey began in 2012 when Anthony Tan and Tan Hooi Ling, inspired by the challenges of the local taxi industry, launched MyTeksi in Malaysia. The app aimed to improve safety and efficiency in taxi services. Recognising the diverse needs of Southeast Asian consumers, Grab expanded its services beyond ride-hailing. It introduced GrabBike for motorcycle taxis, GrabFood for food delivery, and GrabPay for digital payments, evolving into a comprehensive super-app. A significant milestone was reached in 2018 when Grab acquired Uber's Southeast Asian operations, solidifying its dominance in the region. In 2021, Grab went public through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), marking one of the largest SPAC deals at the time. As of November 2024, Grab's market capitalisation is approximately $16.12 billion, underscoring its significant presence in the Southeast Asian market. Ryde – Singapore's Emerging Contender Founded in 2014 by Terence Zou, Ryde began as a carpooling platform in Singapore, aiming to offer a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to traditional ride-hailing services. Over the years, Ryde expanded its offerings to include private-hire car services, catering to a broader customer base. In March 2024, Ryde made history by becoming Singapore's first ride-hailing startup to list on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "RYDE." Despite its smaller scale compared to industry giants Uber and Grab, Ryde has shown potential for growth. As of November 2024, Ryde's market capitalisation stands at approximately $15 million. The company's focus on niche markets and commitment to innovation position it as a promising player in the ride-hailing industry. Ryde still has a huge room to grow, as compared to its other peers.

MARA: Second ChanceMy previous trade idea on MARA followed the accumulation of the lows below $10 when this stock was totally undervalued. I was buying to sell into the ETF news, which lined up perfectly with my BTC prediction approaching 48-50k. That trade resulted in a profit of 300% and our next opportunity is likely approaching as the Bitcoin Halving will occur in April. Ive since sold my MARA position but I will start accumulating this stock again as price retraces. There will be 2 BASIC indicators that I will use to predict where the bottom of this retracement will be. 1) The traditional Fibonacci retracement from the bottom of the range, to the top of the move. We will be using the Golden Pocket CC .618 as a base case and look for confluence at that level. To my expectation, this range lines up with a GAP that MARA failed to close, before rallying over 100%. My previous idea was based on the fact that GAPS must be filled once a direction is chosen. This will be no different. 2) The overall strength of the Market, in particular Bitcoin. I will be looking for a retracement on BTC to at least the $30k-$32k level, which was the previous massive range resistance, and should now be treated as support. If we break this level, we will very likely be looking at lower prices and this trade will be invalidated / look for lower prices. I do believe that we will see a several week accumulation period in the spring, which may last in to the summer until BTC potentially begins its post halving rally in the fall / winter of 2024. It will be important to watch the RSI on the daily time frame. If we break into new lower ranges, but the RSI fails to generate new lows, you can use this as a sign that the bottom is near. My target will be between $12-$13. If we do see further downside towards the previous range point of control at approx $9-$10, this would be a load the boat situation to average in. Lets Go MARA! Good Luck!

Technical Review - Agape ATP Corporation (ATPC) Agape ATP Corporation (ATPC) is showing promising signs of a potential upward breakout as it consolidates within a steady range, with strong support observed at $1.50. This level has consistently attracted buyers, reinforcing confidence and creating a solid foundation for a bullish move. Should the price continue to hold above this point, it indicates healthy accumulation, positioning ATPC for potential growth. On the upside, $2.00 has emerged as the primary resistance level, but recent price action suggests a brewing momentum to break through this barrier. A successful move beyond $2.00, especially if accompanied by an increase in trading volume, would signal a breakout, opening up a pathway to $2.50. This resistance level serves as the next target, where a surge could propel the stock into a new trading range, attracting more bullish interest. Supporting this outlook, the technical indicators add strength to the bullish case. While the MACD reflects a steady buying interest, the MCDX Plus shows signs of accumulation with increasing momentum in the green zone. This suggests that buyers are building up positions, indicating underlying strength that could fuel a significant rally once the $2.00 level is breached. In summary, ATPC is primed for a bullish breakout, with a solid support base at $1.50 and clear resistance at $2.00. Investors should keep an eye on the volume and momentum indicators, as a sustained move above $2.00 could lead to further gains towards $2.50 and beyond.
