2nd trade out of 4 in EXAS today.
I found EXAS on benzinga.com pre-market losers. It was downgraded and gapped down. I shorted every bear flag/pullback.
Entry: I shorted the bear flag with stop at $11.11 (above the bear flag price resistance).
Exit: my target was the LOD at $10.52 (also 2R target) or lower. I figured the stock would keep making lower lows. I was impatient/scared of a reversal and started to scale out much sooner though. The low was $10.33, which would've been almost 3R target.
I got 1.3R out of this trade.
