The overall market did not do so well today. Netflix, Apple and other large tech companies experienced significant sell-offs today as well. Despite all the red across the tech board, IBM managed not only to stay positive, but it has experience some significant buying pressure. IBM is also very close to the 200 sma and is making higher lows towards it on relatively solid volume. The bulls are showing dominance. The volume on the day is about 3.1 million so that is very close to the average of 2.99 million. Increasing volume will be a great confirmation of this move. I have taken a long position, however, I still treat this like all other trades and keep my stop-loss relatively tight just incase there is something I might not be seeing.
