Daily bear flag breakdown. I watched as this stock was quickly shoved back down from a peak of $36.80 when it tried to pop with the morning rush. The quick failure and subsequent inverted hammer was a clear sign of weakness so I anticipated the breakdown once the stock started to go red. I took a nice little gain on 100 shares of around $82. I also re-added short on the bounce but covered before it broke down cause I was getting a little top heavy and had gotten into too many positions at once.
