Perfect Storm Short on Gold

Perfect storm for a 345 pip drop for Gold.

Fundamentally:
CPI was released. Traders felt it was negative for Gold and sold it.

Technically:
An Ascending Triangle which began on September 7th.

This was a range between 1691.83 to 1729.52.

The trend line was respected apart from two false breakouts.
The resistance was also respected other than a false breakout at the top-which could be considered an Upthrust because of its consequential effect.

These two happening together created a perfect situation to short.

The primary move happened within the first minute of CPI being released.

I wish I had followed my gut and traded instead of being away from the computer for this event.
