English term or phrase: we doubled up on the lows

Commentaire de fonds :

When [pharma company] announced the FDA had unexpectedly delayed the approval process of its new drug XX causing the stock to fall by more than 50% on the day, we had a 1.7% position. The good news is that it is now 1.9% (adj) because we doubled up on the lows.

Merci d'avance de m'aider à formuler cette fin de phrase.
