USD to Pound the Pound? - GBP/USD Ichimoku Short Trade

Short
FX:GBPUSD   British Pound / U.S. Dollar
We had a bearish breakout with this pair last week and I'm presenting two different ways to look to hop into this trade to get into the bearish trend.

I would prefer to see a drawback and rejection which is how I've setup this trade up.

A good rejection at the entry level I've drawn would give me a clear signal to enter.

That is going to give us the best risk to reward and is typically how I prefer to enter trend continuation trades.

As an alternative, if we don't get a drawback, I've drawn out a level that we can set a sell stop entry at.

If we break that level then it will be good enough for me to enter a sell for a further move down.

If either of those scenarios fail to play out, this setup may become invalidated for now.
