A few quick breakdown scalps off a bear flag. HLF was being hammered hard by selling all day under the 20sma so it repeatedly offered 3-candle bounces to short. Luckily I seem to have snagged the best one, then longed the bounce after it and shorted the top of the bounce again. Very quick trades, in and out in 10-20 seconds on the scalps and 10 min or so on the breakdown. With 50/100 share sizes, +$128.50.
