AUD/USD breaking lower

FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Having peaked at 0.9188 overnight, AUD/USD has steadily sold off through the European session and has just posted a fresh daily low.

The pair, currently trading at 0.9111, looks to have found some support following the acceleration of its decline this morning and short term sentiment looks to have been lead by the fractionally softer than expected EU Industrial Production numbers which registered at -0.3% against forecasts of -0.2%. Looking back to Wedneday´s 213 pip FOMC led rocket, AUD/USD at 0.9111 is close to a 100% retracement, should it reach 0.9092.
