XAUUSD Short - Great R:R

Updated
Keeping it simple - working with a Bullish Bat Harmonic Pattern.

*This is my observation, this is NOT financial advice.*

The XABCD Rules are as follows:

X-A = Swing Low to Swing High
A-B = Between a .382 to .5 retracement of Wave X-A - In this example, it is a .5
B-C = Between a .382 to .886 retracement of Wave AB - In this example, it is a .886, which is $1737.881 (it may go slightly higher than that price, but only by a wick, the candle-body must close below / at the .886)
C-D = A .886 retracement of the X-A leg, which would be roughly $1593 which would be our target in this case.

I also see this as a potential ZigZag formation so I have highlighted various targets on the way down as well (yellow rectangles).

For trading purposes. I would short between the .854 to .886 retracement of Wave A-B ($1735.12 - $1737.881) and set a stop loss roughly $1 above the previous high (placed at $1749) - risking less than 0.75% with a great R:R as you can see, worth a shot in my opinion.
