Intraday range breakout. This pattern looked extremely bullish on the 5 min chart and was consistently making higher lows for the last hour and a half with all dips being bought back up. It was only meant to be a 5-10c scalp into an EOD buying spree. Just could have given it another 2-3 minutes and sold into a 20 cent gain instead of a 7 cent gain. Quick $20 though so not bad.
