GBP/USD is still holding a bullish consolidation above the 200 SMA as the pair is waiting for the US elections' outcome. While a Hillary Clinton's victory may give a fresh bullish momentum to the US dollar, Trump as the new US president could add strong pressure to the greenback, that should mean a stronger GBP across the board. If the pair manages to break the 1.2482 level, then it can reach the 1.2600 zone. However, if GBP/USD plummets below the 200 SMA and breaks the 1.2262 level, it can go towards the 1.2100 level.
H1 chart's resistance levels: 1.2413 / 1.2482
