FXStreet (Mumbai) - EUR/AUD gave back previous gains and fell back in red during the European session, as the Australian dollar regained lost ground versus the shared currency.

EUR/AUD supported above 1.44 handle

Currently, the EUR/AUD cross trades higher by 0.53% at fresh session highs of 1.4409, recovering from day’s low previously posted at 1.4319 levels.

The Australian dollar lost strength against the euro after weaker than expected Oz manufacturing raised expectations of another rate cut ahead of RBA’s policy statement tomorrow.

At the moment, the AUD/USD pair lower by -0.47% at 0.7770. While EUR/USD trades flat at 1.1195 levels.
