GOLD - Bull flag or Bull trap?

We are forming a bull-flag-like formation on the hourly and 4hrs chart.
During the last month we had a lot of bull flags which broke to the upside.

The pattern we are printing now is bigger than the previous ones. So I'm convinced this is not a bull flag , this is a topping pattern. We just need more and more bulls to chase the price in the hope of breaking above 1300 before a serious decline starts.
Even if we break to the upside - maybe on Sunday night at the French elections- we will give back all gains.

Notice how we tagged 2 hours earlier the upper trendline of the flag : price was still in the range...

I'm holding the short positions and will add if we break up from the flag...

Gold will be hit hard today : 1250-55 by the close.

Late Bears are waiting for gold to tag 1300-1310 to go short from there. Thats why its not going to happen. Now is the time to stop oou the bulls who are trapped above 1280.

1250-55 is the breakout level. A lot will buy there " as a testback of the breakout". Just a 1 day stop. We will not bottom on the daily cycle basis till Wed.
