NIHD 60 minNIHD could provide a relatively quick trade on a break above this 60 minute bullish falling wedge pattern.  As always, a candlestick close above (or below on shorts) the pattern on the time frame of the chart that you are trading helps to affirm the breakout and minimize the odds of a false breakout.  How soon and how much (partial or full position) a trader enters a position on a breakout of a pattern will vary.  More aggressive traders might take a full position immediately upon prices trading above the pattern while more conservative traders might prefer a candlestick close above the pattern or maybe wait until the breakout is confirmed via volume (1.5x average daily volume or greater).  Others might take a partial position on the initial breakout, only adding to the position when it seems likely that the breakout will stick (as the breakout is confirmed via prices moving away from the breakout level on above average volume with the broad market confirming the move).  There are numerous ways to trade breakouts but most importantly, one needs to set trendline or price alerts on the charts of their watch-list stocks as prices often move quickly one a breakout occurs.
