Intraday flag break. This was a perfect entry and nice exit on the first piece, it just didn't follow through. I even let it come back a bit below my buy price to see if it would bounce that support but it just faded away and to prevent the trade from going negative I sold the rest flat. It did ultimately end up hitting my target of around $40.85 but it wasn't clean at all so I don't regret getting out. I think this trade was handled well. Original stop under $41.20 ($200 risk)
