Daily: earnings breakout, gapped up to new high
Intraday: ORB
I took my first entry on the ORB (a little earlier than the actual breakout). It moved like a tank. I took 3/4 off near $60 as I thought that was a major level. Then I regret because it didn't seem to care about $60 level. I jumped back in and scaled out into spikes.

I had a great entry but how do you trail your stops? Do you just use a trend line until it breaks or what method to know when the move might be over? I got out after like .40c

I trailed my stop under a green candle low or 2-3 candle lows if the candles were tiny. If there were unexpected big drops or 9 EMA break, I would have been more active with the scale outs.
If you have a problem with taking too small profits, it's best to take partial and trail just a small part for potential bigger move.
