Bears are showing signs of life today, namely due to the heavy weakness in the Dow dragging everything else down today.
If IBM and United Technologies (UTX) report better earnings the market might be making a run towards all-time highs today. But because the Dow is price weighted and not based on the market cap of a stock, a company like IBM can unilaterally wreck havoc on the index.
You also have Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT) and Yahoo (YHOO) reporting after the bell today, and the former is guaranteed to shake things up for better or worse.
I haven’t made any trades yet today though, but I may look to hedge my current portfolio some, if we don’t see rebound in the market before the end of the day.

Welcome to Swing Trading the Stock Market Podcast!
I want you to become a better trader, and you know what? You absolutely can!
Commit these three rules to memory and to your trading:
#1: Manage the RISK ALWAYS!
#2: Keep the Losses Small
#3: Do #1 & #2 and the profits will take care of themselves.
That’s right, successful swing-trading is about managing the risk, and with Swing Trading the Stock Market podcast, I encourage you to email me (ryan@shareplanner.com) your questions, and there’s a good chance I’ll make a future podcast out of your stock market related question.
What do you do when the best trade setup that you can find is a stock that you already have a position in? Should you trade a stock that you already have a position in and exponentially increase the size of that position? In this podcast episode Ryan explains the circumstances that allows you to increase your position size in an already profitable trade and how to manage the risk in doing so.
