Made $47 profit with $25 risk. I covered the last part exactly at the top and then it started dropping again. If I had held until the afternoon, I could've made up to 7 times my risk out of it.

Stop was at $19.85 ($0.15 from entry).
RR 2:1 target was $19.40.

Great entry! Patience isn't easy, I have the same problem. Sometimes they work right away and other times they trick you before they go.

Nice trade. It was a tough wait for it to break just before 1 PM. I would have exited too.

Nice trade! Great entry. I think the loss wasn't in getting out when you did, because staying in would have cost a certain amount of emotional capital. The bummer was in missing the flat bottom breakdown at 12:55.
But hey you were positive and we can't trade every setup anyway.
