This is my first ever live trade. My only objective was to exit it profitably. Shorted when it cleared a bear flag. Sold a nerve-racking 10 min later. My first exit target officially was at 20.8, but I just had to sell when I saw green. Worst exit ever, but it served its purpose and I loosened up a little (just barely) to trade better - but still was very cautious today. Hopefully it only gets better from here.

Great short entry, you had that for a nice gain. Sell in partials just like you did in practice.
