TWTR remains in extended downtrend that began in FEB of this year. Began broadening formation in August that ended in a breakout to the downside of both the broadening formation and the major trendline that began in MAR of 20'

Long Put
Levels on Chart
SL on a daily close over the lower trendline in the broadening formation. This can happen and a short is still valid, but due to the nature of options this position will be a close-out and search for new entry.
*Stops based off underlying stock price, not mark to market loss

Note
If I had caught the breakout of the broadening pattern on the day it happened, I would still be in this position.
At my entry, I was caught halfway through a pattern, which is a psychologically weak position to be in, so I took what profit posted.
Otherwise this was a strong pattern to trade the deteriorating market-breadth.
