Gold: Trend-Following Short Trade

Short
FX:XAUUSD   Gold Spot / U.S. Dollar
25
*Update: Stopped out...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gold failed at the main descending resistance for the overall bearish trend, where price headed back to settle below the 50-days Simple moving average. Today, the price dipped below 1186.00 near term support, where stability below the latter has confirmed a minor head and shoulders top pattern. Accordingly, am looking to short the metal near that broken support around 1186.00. The trade comes in the context of my longer term outlook which you can check in the related ideas below..
