The thing about trading breakouts...

[misti]

Breakout works for me. If you pick shitty stocks to trade on breakout. Then it is on you.

Yes,,, No shitty stocks ,,, that's why I trade good stocks breakouts after the 1st pullback ,,,, if they do not pullback I don't care ,,,, I look for the next trade,,,,

Do you Know which breakouts are the biggest before it happens ?

By shifting perspective from being time-based to event-based when viewing the market what is observed is a repeating sequence of events.

Generally, it's a stock in the $10-50 price range with institutional interest that has been quietly accumulating prior to the Dry Up of volume. First Rising Volume is the next event from DU and as daily volume begins to increase, price begins to accelerate it's appreciation. There are other screening criteria to apply and one is left with a handful of instruments to watch for the morning breakout.

You need to trade breakouts that have a higher probability of winning. Look at the patterns and see what leads to successful breakouts. Also, different asset classes have very different personalities of course, as do different stocks, so you have to know what the signs are that a specific breakout will most likely work.
