Finally a winning trade today! Intraday short breakdown. I actually tried to short this multiple times but my software kept giving me errors. I attempted to short at $20.99, then again at $20.90, and again at $20.80 for the daily breakdown. Out of extreme frustration I finally waited for a small bounce and just decided to throw caution to the wind, shorting a mini-bear flag at $20.69, which quickly reversed. I decided it was go big or go home time and doubled up near what should have been daily resistance around $20.80 and was able to cover 600 into the EOD flush. While I made money on this, I give it a big fat F overall because it was just lucky. The real short was at $20.99 or possibly even higher, but apparently my software didn't agree with me. Made $75.10
