I entered after a pullback break out with a mental stop at 35.35. Scaled during the first spike and the stock started to move sideways before dropping back down to my entry. As it got closer I exited.

I re-entered once the stock got close to previous highs and started to form a flat top. The stock consolidated for a while but continued to hold support. My mental stop was 35.70. I accidently bought 100 shares when I meant to buy 200. But at that point I just decided to stick with my amount since this stock was moving very slow. After some time it finally spiked up so I exited my shares during the stretched candle.
