Flag breakout. Saw this ticker in chat. Need to find a way to screen for these big runners that did not gap up. Try watching the top gainers list and most active list for the day. Consider writing a scan for percentage gain over a short period a time. Scaled out way too quickly on this one. Let these ride more. This is a great pattern with an explosive breakout with conviction. The first scale out of way too early. Maybe scale out in quarters in these situations. Also wait longer between scale outs.
