Intraday HOD break. The stock was up on news about some Hep C drug test and it kept tapping the $73 area. When it finally broke I took 75 shares long with a liberal stop ($72.25ish). I'm not really sure why it didn't work but I do know the market was directionless today and I'm sure that had something to do with it. I managed to hold through the first dip but when it still didn't break after the 3rd or 4th time tapping $73.17 which was the major breakout spot, I cut it. Just in time, as you can see, since it dropped all the way to $72.30 in the same candle. Lost $23.24.
