10M float/3% short of float/5% institutional
Stop: 2.65$
R: 0.72
I liked the trade at first, because $IFON is a lowfloater capable of making huge moves on volume. I waited for the stops below .70s to get pulled and entered on a remount as .70s held.
Then volume dried up and she started to grind.
1st scale: a little more than 1/2 at .85 as I did not want to repeat yesterdays mistake
close: bailed out as soon as we traded below .70s again...which was good.
TL;DR: Yes, one could argue it was overextended, but it had decent volume out of the gate and a history of being a runner. So I took a stab at it and cut it quickly as soon as I realized the missing follow through.
