P/L= +2.4R
Entry: Short after a gap down. I saw the price action form a flat on the 5m chart. I felt like it had good fade potential even though it was already pretty extended to the downside.
Result: Got a slow fade after shaking out to the upside for a while. Luckily my stop absorbed that. I also added to the position after a couple of candles where I still had conviction in my thesis. I wasn't paying too much attention to the trade because I was paying attention to other trades. I ended up tightening the target and took it off after price action slowed to a crawl and my bedtime approached.
