- The short term trend is neutral, while the long term trend is still negative. We need to see a little more continued positive action to make this really interesting.

- SM is one of the lesser performing stocks in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry. 84% of 207 stocks in the same industry do better.
- SM is currently trading near the lower end of its 52 week range, which is not a good sign. Certainly not because the S&P500 Index is trading near new 52 week highs at the moment.
- In the last month SM has a been trading in the 17.45 - 20.16 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading near the high of this range.
- SM has an average volume of 4223100 traded shares per day. This is a good sign as it is always nice to have a liquid stock.
- Volume is considerably higher in the last couple of days.
The technical rating of SM is bad and it also does not present a quality setup at the moment. Price movement has been a little bit too volatile to find a nice entry and exit point. It is probably a good idea to wait for a consolidation first.
