Daily: big gap down below a bear flag
Intraday: bear flag
This is a fairly textbook bear flag trade. I started late and missed the flush out of the gate although I'm not sure whether I would have taken the short out of the gate if I had the chance. I was patient and waiting for a flag to form, entered when price started moving down. My timing was pretty good on this one, maybe because of slow price movement.
