This is an orthodox strategy and there's nothing wrong with it. I can say I almost always use the sensible tactic of entry by way of an order on my side of price.
But you're now describing not a reversal but a break-out from a sideways range. And even most break-outs don't become trends. And with none of them is it possible to predict it will eventually become a trend.
What most new traders are looking for is a dramatic V-shaped reversal from a downtrend into an equally steep uptrend. They've seen it on a hundred websites. It looks great. Its so rare they can achieve profit this way that such illustrations could almost be said to be a scam.

Do you think that either one of these charts illustrate a possible reversal?
Why?

How long do you plan to hold this trade?
That's too bad. Maybe there are some ideas for you to explore in one of those three search returns about reversals. Maybe take a half hour and browse around there. See if something resonates with your way of doing things.This chart for example. I didnt trade it but i was following it.
Its making higher highs and higher lows and looks like it was about to go for another rally but then suddenly broke down and made baby hodlers instead...

That NILE chart's pretty jumbled up. Can you post it showing just the candles between mid-Feb and mid-April and spread them out with no drawings?This chart for example. I didnt trade it but i was following it.
