ESV (Ensco Intl.--$60.97; +1.75; optionable): Oil and gas service company
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/e/esv.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle. Strong volume the past two weeks as ESV broke higher in its 9 week base and then spent the past week testing on lower trade, waiting for the 10 day EMA (59.03) to catch up to it. It did that Monday and Tuesday, and Tuesday ESV jumped off the near support on a tremendous volume surge. Strong money flow is leading the way higher. When it makes the breakout we are ready to move in.

IBM (International Business Machines--$115.71; +1.48; optionable)
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/i/ibm.html
EARNINGS: Announced 1-17-08
STATUS: Double bottom w/handle. IBM has carved out a 5 month base, surging last week to clear the hump in the pattern formed with the December high at 112. It is testing that move, working laterally the pat week on low, below average volume following that high volume surge. Monday the 10 day EMA (113) caught up with it and IBM jumped higher. Volume was up but it could be better. Looking for more trade as IBM makes the next break higher.

BUY POINT: $116.88 Volume=12M Target=$133.95 Stop=$112.55

STATUS: Cup w/handle. Nice handle testing the 18 day EMA (57.89) has formed the past week and a half, easing back to test near support after forming a nice 9 week pattern. Volume edged up to average Monday and bounced above average Tuesday as STLD tested the waters for a breakout. It faded to flat but looks very solid.
