Price action > Support or Resistance Lines

This is a controversial statement. Looking at the price action on the 15-minute timeframe may mean something, but never on the 5-minute timeframe. If you are going to look at the 5-minute breakout, enter only after the breakout pullback, never at the breakout. It is necessary to wait for this type of confirmation. If you go up without a pullback once in a while, be patient. Better than trying to guess every time.

In addition, observing trend channels helps a lot to give context, so that you can make your decision considering a larger trend scenario and the eventual approach of resistance. In other words, price action in a 5-minute timeframe is nothing.
