Current. Continuing its test of the December high in the Cup base as AAPL sold a bit lower Tuesday on rising, above average volume.

Still resting after the breakout from late November into early December here near 700. Has held below average volume in this lateral movement from early December along as it held the 10 and 18 day EMAs as key support at this high. Higher volume is all it needs to push up out of this consolidation.

Buy Not Hit. IRM still resting after the late November move higher in the Cup hdl. Just hanging around the upper 30s near the 10 and 18 day EMAs on below average volume for now. Higher trade is all IRM needs to really get the base going upside again and give us the buy.
