The setup: short the bounce

The result: Stock is in a downtrend. Time frames matched up. I set a trailing stop before I went to bed on 8.12 and it triggered. It seems like I calibrated it fairly well and locked in most of this short move. There may still be more downside, but I wanted to catch this move and get out. Next time I may endeauvour to keep some in this scenario.

The exit: I was a pit too impatient. Could easily have taken off half and held for the real move below 18.
