Chivas's idea: SHW out of flat base

Chivas likes the low volatility and flat shallow base of SHW for his weekly pick. SHW has good rel strength, has a nice trend going, but there are a few drawbacks as I see it:

1. Lacking vol on breakout
2. Red vol comes in Thursday, 4/16.
3. Not in a good group rank. 77/197
4. Acc/Dis is D+.

I see these as enough to rule this stock out.
