I don't believe in overly simplistic view on trading so breakout really is just a breakout for me - what happens after the breakout tells much more than the actual breakout.
20 day breakout is "the classic" trend signal so you might want to try to use that if you want to look some particular breakout.

Mikkom,
I have read all your posts and use all your indicators. I am a retired business consultant and earlier I was a financial journalist. Your indicators are something I can relate easily without getting affected by TA noise and colorful visuals. your indicators are well though-out and look neat.
