Late date fade off longside short breakdown. I was hoping I'd get a better flush than this but sized accordingly since I knew there was support at $22.17 and I would probably only get 10-12c out of it if I were lucky. Really this was a crappy reward to risk ratio, since I'm almost certain I would not have cut it for anything less than 10 cents loss. Luckily, the fade worked, but I don't recommend this style of trading.
