MAPLETREE LOGISTICS TRUST (M44U) – DAILY TIMEFRAME
Period observed: Apr → 28 Nov 2025
Bars analysed: ~160
Last traded price: 1.32 SGD
1. Market Regime Classification (Lead Section)
Current regime: Transition → Early Uptrend
The chart shows a multi-month accumulation base, followed by:
-
A CHoCH in mid-June,
-
A steady series of HL–HH structures forming from July to November,
-
A recent pullback from 1.37 back into 1.30-1.32, now pushing back upward.
The market is not in strong markup, but not ranging either.
This is a transition into controlled bullish structure, driven by increasing demand.
2. Highest Conviction Observations (Summary Before Deep Dive)
(1) Strong demand zone at 1.22 – 1.24
Repeated absorptions, low-volume tests, and multiple HLs confirm institutional accumulation.
(2) 1.30 → 1.34 is the key supply belt
Price has repeatedly stalled here. Every breakout attempt required volume expansion.
(3) The 1.37 breakout was poorly sustained
Wide-range candle but no follow-through, showing lack of strong institutional chase.
(4) Current structure forming a higher low at 1.30
Demand is stepping in again → bullish continuation likely if volume expands above 1.33–1.34.
(5) Volume signature suggests Smart Money quietly building positions
Repeated high-volume absorption during selloffs, but no panic volume on retracements.
3. Market Structure & Order Flow Analysis
Macro Structure
-
Major swing lows (SL): 1.07 → 1.08 → 1.13 → 1.14 → 1.23 → 1.24 → current ~1.30
-

Key structural events

| CHoCH (July) | Higher low at 1.13 and breakout to 1.22 |
| BOS #2 (Oct) | 1.29 → 1.37 breakout |

Trend Momentum
-
Early trend: compact candles, overlapping → accumulation
-
Mid trend: strong candles July–Sep
-
Late trend (Nov): momentum slowing, wider wicks, supply showing at 1.34–1.37
Buyers still in control, but not aggressively chasing highs.
4. Volume–Price Relationship (VPR)
Key observations
Absorption
-
Large red candles in Apr–May came with large wicks and deep absorption → institutional accumulation.
-
At 1.22-1.24, repeated high-volume but small-range bars = strong hands accumulating.
Volume Dry-Up
-
During pullbacks from 1.29 → 1.24, volume declined significantly
→ retracement not driven by strong selling.
Volume Expansion
-
Breakout toward 1.37 had clear volume expansion, but single-day spike only → not sustained.
Overall VPR conclusion
Demand > Supply, but supply thickens at 1.34–1.37.
Perfect environment for step-wise markup, not explosive breakout.
5. Institutional Footprint Recognition
Order Blocks
-
Bullish OB at 1.22–1.24
Last down-moves before strong rallies. Market repeatedly returns to this zone → clear demand.
Liquidity Grabs
-
At 1.07 and 1.08, deep spikes followed by immediate reversals = classic sell-side liquidity sweep.
Fair Value Gaps
-
Small FVGs visible in:
-
July rally (1.13 → 1.22)
-
September rally (1.24 → 1.29)
These FVGs were mitigated on pullbacks, indicating controlled institutional flows.
-
Displacement Moves
-
1.24 → 1.30 in late Sept was a displacement run, strong direction, shallow pullback.
Smart money is active, but not aggressive. Steady accumulation pattern.
6. Bar Pattern Analysis
Reversal Bars
-
Multiple hammer-type reversals at:
-
1.13
-
1.14
-
1.24
These coincide with demand zones + volume drops → high-quality reversals.
-
Continuation Bars
-
August–October rally contains multiple inside bar clusters → bullish compression → breakouts.
Indecision Bars
-
Near 1.34–1.37 supply, more doji-type bars appear → confirms thick supply overhead.
7. Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Although only daily chart visible:
-
Weekly likely forming multi-month base breakout at 1.30.
-
Daily supports this with HL structure + volume validation.
Strong confluence around 1.30 as support on both daily + weekly.
8. Psychological Levels
-
1.30 → largest magnet level, both support and resistance
-
1.35 / 1.37 → supply zone, tested twice
-
1.20 → structural demand zone if deeper correction happens
9. Supply & Demand Zones
Demand zones (high conviction)
-
1.22 – 1.24 (primary institutional demand)
-
1.30 – 1.32 (current support forming)
Supply zones
-
1.34 – 1.37 (heavy supply stack)
Repeated rejection, wide wicks, and failed follow-through.
10. Risk-Adjusted Setup Identification
Bullish scenario (higher probability)
Entry: 1.31–1.32
Stop: Below 1.29 (structural invalidation)
Target 1: 1.34
Target 2: 1.37
Target 3: 1.40 (if breakout sustained)
RR ≈ 1:2.6 to 1:4.0
Bearish scenario (if 1.29 breaks)
Entry: Break below 1.29 with volume
Target: 1.24
Invalidation: Above 1.32
But probability lower given accumulation behaviour.
11. Forward-Looking Bias
Bullish bias with caution
-
Strong structure
-
Demand stepping in
-
Good HL formation
-
Controlled volume behaviour
But need a clean break above 1.34 to retest 1.37 and move toward 1.40.
Key levels to watch
-
Support: 1.30
-
Demand: 1.24
-
Resistance: 1.34
-
Breakout line: 1.37
If 1.34 breaks with volume → high probability continuation.
If 1.29 breaks → retest of 1.24 likely.
12. Final Summary (Actionable)
Mapletree Logistics Trust (M44U) is showing institutional accumulation, strong HL construction, and low-volume retracements. The current pullback into 1.30–1.32 is behaving like a bullish retest, and upside continuation is favoured as long as 1.29 holds.
Forward bias:
➜ Bullish continuation toward 1.34 → 1.37, with potential for a breakout to 1.40 if volume expands.
