EUR/USD analysis for 12/09/2018:
US small business optimism rose to the highest level on record (since the mid-1970s). The yesterday's data were better than expectations of 108.1 points as the final figure was at the level of 108.9 (survey of small businesses which asks respondents to rate the relative level of economic conditions including labor markets, inventories and sales, capital spending, inflation, earnings and wages, and credit markets). High optimism is generally associated with positive business investment growth and supports our view that the US expansion continues. US equities rallied and the oil price increase fuelled rising yields further.
Let's now take a look at the EUR/USD technical picture at the H4 time frame. The price failed to break out of the black channel higher line and went back to the channel zone despite the better than expected data (record high in fact).

The nearest technical support is seen at the level of 1.1565 and the nearest technical resistance is seen at the level of 1.1617.
