For GBP/USD, the pivot point stands at 1.2598, which serves as the immediate threshold for any bullish advance. Should the pair push above this level, subsequent resistance points are located at 1.2567 and 1.2635.

Conversely, support levels are more distantly set at 1.2467 and 1.2387, with an additional safety net at 1.2301. These levels will play a crucial role should the pair experience a downturn.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently stands at 52, indicating a relatively balanced market with neither overbought nor oversold conditions.
