Entry was OK. It failed that 4.85 range, which was support on that previous flag (and support becomes resistance). Also, as Nape mentioned, your stop was off. I would've been OK with with a stop at .86 but I would've personally taken it at .89.
Either way, looks like you were bound to hit support at .70. I've noticed that when stocks (especially ones at new highs like this) have hit a low in the morning, the consolidation area of that previous low will tend to become support.

Stop should have been 10 cent away.
