4 Tech Stocks to Trade (or Not)
Symantec
Nearest Resistance: $19.50
Nearest Support: $17
Catalyst: Q2 Earnings Beat Symantec (SYMC) is another name that's moving higher today following earnings news. The security software company saw second quarter profits jump by 6%, spurring a nearly 6% jump in shares as I write. But the trading implications are still tentative at this point. >>4 Stocks Showing Strength in a Weak Market That's because while the jump did definitively break SYMC out of the downtrend in shares that started in September, it pushed the stock right in between resistance at $19.50 and support at $17. I wouldn't recommend becoming a buyer unless this firm can build enough strength to break out above that $19.50 level. The fade in today's price action makes me think that we'll need to see some sideways movement before that can happen.
