If you are short 10 ES contracts and price drops to your target but stalls with 'Absorption' (high bilateral volume, zero delta), what is the professional exit strategy?

2. Move the stop-loss 10 ticks away to give it room.
3. Wait for a 'Stacked Selling Imbalance' to confirm continuation.
4. Add to the short position, expecting a breakthrough.
