GMMG CEO Arlone Abello leads a hands-on Crypto Technical Analyst Executive Course session on technical analysis and disciplined trading amid market volatility
Technical education is emerging as a priority for Filipino investors as persistent global market volatility exposes gaps in risk management and trading discipline, according to Arlone Abello, crypto educator, market analyst, and CEO of Global Miranda Miner Group (GMMG). To address this, GMMG has rolled out the Crypto Technical Analyst Executive Course, with support from the Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (PDAX). The face-to-face program is built to sharpen technical analysis skills, instill risk discipline, and improve trading execution for participants navigating volatile market conditions.
"Volatility frequently shocks the community. Filipino investors and traders need to understand that crypto markets are not just about price prediction. They require a solid grasp of support and resistance levels, risk-reward balance, and how to manage exposure under fast-changing conditions, as well as the ability to recognize risks unique to each digital asset," said Abello.
The push for technical education comes amid continued instability in cryptocurrency markets, with Bitcoin shedding more than half of its value from its peak last year, including a major intraday crash in early February and large-scale liquidations in May.
These downturns have hit both novice and seasoned traders in the Philippines hard. Despite the volatility, the country remains one of the world's most active crypto markets, with an estimated 22-23% of the population holding digital assets.
Abello noted that many traders enter the market during bullish cycles but are unprepared for the corrections that inevitably follow. A lack of technical strategy paired with emotional decision-making typically leads to severe losses.

"Beginners and experienced traders should understand that crypto success depends on risk appetite and time tolerance. Our mission in launching the executive course is to educate traders before they trade," he added.
The course is built around GMMG's proprietary FEAST Trading System, covering technical analysis, market psychology, risk management, and disciplined trading execution. Participants get hands-on mentorship from instructors and fellow practitioners on reading market behavior, spotting trading opportunities, managing portfolio risk, and building strategies that apply across digital assets.
Beyond technical analysis, participants were also introduced to legitimate pathways for participating in financial markets, with discussions spanning growth-oriented digital assets and more conservative options such as Retail Treasury Bonds (RTBs) available on regulated platforms like PDAX.
The inaugural batch concluded at the PDAX Office in Pasig City, where PDAX hosted the session, with 30 participants completing the program. The cohort included professionals from law enforcement, healthcare, engineering, law, entrepreneurship, and the maritime sector, along with recent university graduates.
Given the demand, a second batch is set for July 11–12, 2026, and GMMG plans to expand the program to Cebu, Davao, and Baguio later this year.
