CRVS Short Entry and Cover

2023년 6월 6일

I put an order our premarket to go short CRVS at the 3.50 level at 3.45. With a target half way back to the 3.00 level at 3.21. The reason I made my target half way to the 3.00 support is not entirely clear to me. Something about how the stock is not very extended, and how volume has been low. it felt a bit like it has been consolidating. And I didn't want to push my luck for it to turn and break above 3.50. My target was hit around 1:35pm.
