janie...usually i play the breakout if the markets moving with me, always checking the sector too..scalp or swing trade it...and then wait for the expected puillback from new highs and pounce on it again... stocks making new highs are doing it because of great FA...and TA...

Janie: You might consider buying half your intended position on the break out, the other half on your hoped-for pullback. If the train leaves on time at least you've got half. If it pulls back you might get your other half. And of course use stops to protect against a severe pullback. Or, you might consider using a buy-stop going through the 52-week high. There's no right or wrong here. Sometimes they fly through, sometimes they pull back. A final thought; you might consider a trading "style" that is compatible with your personality. (Lee)
