Coca Cola ($KO) has a pretty good run yesterday despite the average volume.
From the Ichimoku Chart, we can see how it opens low on Sept 6 and close high for the day. On Sept 6, the market is generally rallying upwards. What separates it from the rest is that $KO is supported by the kumo and it closes above the kumo; a breakout signal from the kumo.
The second confirmation comes the following day on Sept 7.
$KO gap up and make a move; breaking 2 resistance levels in one move and hitting a 52 week high in the process.
I believe $KO is going to head higher.
A peak at its Financial Ratio for Q3 (July 2011) from Google Finance suggest so.

The third confirmation from the chart comes from the leading kumo.
We can see that it has ‘twisted’ and is showing a bullish trend moving forward; reversing from its previously bearish outlook.
