$AMAT gapped up and after it's first spike it consolidated for 2 candles on the 2-min chart. I scaled in and took a half position of 100 shares. It broke out and I began scaling out, taking my last profits @22.53. Maybe should have sold my last shares on the red candle, would have got an extra 10 cents, but with only 25 shares at the end, wouldn't have made much of a difference. Good trade.
