Perfect intraday triple tap breakout. I sold a bit into the pop above 12 and was holding the rest at $12.23 when the stock got halted w/ news pending. When it opened it was only $12.17 so it didn't seem like the news affected it, but then some shenanigans started happening and it dropped quickly back to under $12 so I got out flat on the last half. Probably wussed out a little too early. I was thrown off by the halt. Stop was under $11.90.

You're completely right and I didn't even notice that. Only reason I got out was that this was the first candle after it opened from the halt and I didn't know what was going on with the stock. First time I've ever been in a halted stock so it skurred me a bit!
