This may be helpful in terms of breakouts trading:

Intraday techniques. Market movements 

The best movements often after breakouts (as you saw in many of my trades). Breakout acts like a confirmation and a signal. You can enter aggressively (on the confirmation candle after the breakout) and conservatively (trade retest*). It is also a good place to set your stop loss at or near.

*Retest is the pattern when the price breaks the resistance out and then returns to it and rebounds, making it become the support (the same is with the support line, which becomes the resistance)
