This was my one mistake of the day -- I entered under an incorrect order type (got a good fill, but still a mistake), and then I trailed stop to break even even though I knew it was a good setup and I had a good price. I think the mistake threw me off kilter a bit and I didn't want to take the risk without having gone in with full preparedness. I believe this trade would have paid 2 targets had I not trailed the stop to break even. So lesson learned and will do better tomorrow.
