Blackberry (BBRY) has been the most unloved tech stock in a cradle of optimism. After living in a massive downtrend for the last 7 years, Blackberry started to perk up recently. While there have been a few bear market bounces for Blackberry, this looks different this time. The SCTR shows a ranking above 90% which is very strong. The big 5-year downtrend line has been broken. The 4-year trendline that is much shallower in red has not been broken yet. 

The volume has broken the down sloping trend line. The volume candle last week was one of the best of the year. The MACD is making higher lows on each of the lows and this looks pretty nice. If the market can hold up, this looks like a nice base to build from.

Good trading,
