“Right now, IBM is setting up for an even bigger move. One that could dwarf yesterday’s 49% gain”

Hey Gang,
While most traders panicked yesterday morning, I was closing a 49% winner.
The Dow had dropped over 665 points, tech giants like Nvidia and Tesla were getting crushed, and most traders were running for cover.
Meanwhile, my S.A.M. AI scanner flagged something interesting – IBM.
That’s the power of having the right tools and strategy when markets get chaotic.
And right now, IBM is setting up for an even bigger move. One that could dwarf yesterday’s 49% gain.
But before I reveal this setup, let’s understand what’s driving this market…
Current Market
Tariffs are the name of the game. And no one knows for sure how things will end.
After threatening to drop a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico, the White House gave a 30-day reprieve on both based on commitments each country offered.
However, it still appears that a 10% tariff on Chinese imports could go into effect in the near future.
Yet, markets largely brushed off those fears, rebounding hard, finally closing the gap left open from Friday.
That puts the focus back on AI and inflation.
While stocks like Nvidia haven’t recovered from the DeepSeek news, other companies like Palantir are riding higher than ever.
Now, I rarely look to Blue Chip companies for trades, particularly ones like IBM that haven’t moved much in nearly two decades.
Yet, a solid earnings report and a beautiful chart setup made me take a second look at this stock. And boy, I’m sure glad I did.
Why IBM
IBM’s latest earnings highlighted significant growth in software, particularly automation and AI.
That puts it squarely at the center of what’s working in this market.
But let’s be real. I didn’t pick this stock out of nowhere. There is close to zero chance I would have seen it had it not been for my S.A.M. AI Scanner.
You see, when the market rebounded, I wanted stocks that had relative strength – those that held their own during the overnight drop.
Sure enough, IBM was one of them.
That led me to the following 30-minute chart:
When I’m looking for explosive moves, I rely on my TPS strategy – Trend, Pattern, and Squeeze:
- Trend: IBM was showing a clear upward trajectory from earnings and held steady during market turbulence
- Pattern: Price consolidated in a tight range, forming a perfect triangle pattern
- Squeeze: My momentum indicator (red dots) signaled building pressure for a breakout
S.A.M. spotted all three elements converging at once, giving this setup an A+ rating.
That’s why I alerted members to the IBM 2/7 $260 calls at $3.25.
A few hours later, we closed half the position at $4.81 for a quick 49% gain.
But Here’s What’s Really Exciting…
Looking at the hourly chart now, IBM is setting up for potentially an even bigger move:
Notice how the stock is consolidating near its highs in an even larger pattern. The moving averages are stacked perfectly, and another squeeze is developing.
When you combine this technical setup with IBM’s relative strength during yesterday’s panic, we could see an explosive move higher.

Look, finding setups like this isn’t easy – especially when markets are this volatile. That’s exactly why I combined the S.A.M. AI Scanner with Profit Surge Trader.
Here’s the thing – IBM’s setup is developing right now. By next week, this opportunity could be gone.
That’s why I’m hosting a special LIVE session this Monday at noon EST where I’ll reveal:
- The exact levels I’m watching for IBM’s next breakout
- Real-time trade alerts when key entry points hit
- How my S.A.M. AI Scanner identified this A+ setup
- My complete trading strategy for this volatile market
Look, my members just captured a 49% gain while others were panicking. But based on what I’m seeing, this next move could be even bigger.
Don’t let another opportunity like this slip away.
Time to profit together,
— Nate Bear
