FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - After yesterday's tops in the boundaries of 1.0520, the Aussie dollar has initiated a correction lower, falling as low as today's lows around 1.0460 and accelerated after the trade deficit in Australia has widened to A$ 2.08 billion, the largest since March 2008

In the opinion of analyst Adrian Foster at Rabobank, "With the Australian dollar so strong, a bigger deficit is not that surprising& What Australia needs is an import binge to get some momentum behind AU$ selling to get it lower".

The cross is now losing 0.18% at 1.0465
Next support levels line up at 1.0440 (MA14d) ahead of 1.0420 (MA21d) and 1.0406 (low Dec.4).
On the upside, a break above 1.0515 (hourly high Dec.6) would aim towards 1.0519 (high Sep.21) and finally 1.0564 (high Sep.17).
