This stock has had a history of going for a few days after a breakout. I took this as a continuation of the flag breakout on the daily chart. I entered when it seemed to break the flag on the intraday chart. When the first breakout failed, I added more shares at the lower price. I was slightly oversized: my stop was at 13.12 and my average was about 13.27... so I took at 1.5% risk on my overall account here.

I was relatively happy with my scale out. Scaled out in 1/2, then 1/4. It looks like I sold the last 1/4 at a support area. There wasn't much selling at that point and the dips were getting bought so I shouldn't have sold so quickly. In the future, I should just set my stop at the buy price and try to let it develop.
