I tried this early on the 2 minute chart. Hit perfect on the break of a really nice looking flag, only to stop out shortly afterward. I think the lesson is that 2 or 3 minute charts can work for ORB's, but are not reliable for flags. Back to the 5 minute, I waited for consolidation, and grabbed what I think is a pretty good entry right on EMA. Exited some on the first pop, a little more later as it peaked, and kept a little overnight.
