Specifications
About EUR/AUD
EUR/AUD measures the euro against the Australian dollar, creating a cross between a developed European economy and a commodity-exporting one. The pair is popular among carry traders because of the historically wide interest rate differential between the ECB and the RBA. It tends to move in extended trends when the rate outlook between the two central banks diverges.
Key Price Drivers
- ECB vs RBA interest rate differential
- Eurozone economic performance and sentiment
- Australian commodity exports and Chinese demand
- Global risk sentiment shifts

What is EUR/AUD?
EUR/AUD is a cross pair that measures how many Australian dollars are needed to buy one euro, without routing through the US dollar.
