Price action traders; what would you do in this instance?

I think the case for falls in oil is quite compelling. However I'm not so convinced about gold, I would wait for a breach of previous lows. I guess we coudl be due for a pullback after such a strong price move upwards, but I would see this as a consolidation period rather than a head & shoulders.
