I'm biased, but I prefer to see it as a high handle beginning on 12/6. The
volume that day was not so great, and there was no true handle, so I don't
consider it a true breakout.

The handle beginning after that failure is nice and long and volume dried
up nicely towards the end. The volume on 1/6-1/7 was very high.

Only time will tell the true story...
