FB bear flag after great earnings Short

Meta Platforms, Inc.NASDAQ

Description

Overview of Technicals and Fundamentsla:
Facebook was one of few stocks that outperformed market after its earnings release. On earnings day it gapped up huge and closed above an important technical level $108. Then we saw two days of nice follow through and on third day it formed nice top and tail candle with high at $117.59. Usually, such candles are good sign of slowing down and leads to some kind of pullback or consolidation or maybe even reversal, like in case of Facebook.

Trade and Risk-management
Now, it pulled back a bit from low at $96.82 constructing a nice bear flag pattern. Break and close below $100.24 will trigger entry short with stop above $105.11 and targets at $94, then my long-term target is $86.

Overall market is still bearish and could help to drive this stock lower.
