Right idea, but poorly executed. Should have kept watch on for retest of breakout area and support hold. This one got away because I'm not used to studying breakouts like this.

I did have my original stop under 15, but took profits too early. The breakout seemed too good to be true.

The first pullback down to 15.10 would have been idea for an entry with a stop just under 15.
