FxWirePro: AUD/USD capped below 5-DMA, on track to test trendline at 0.7535, stay short

• AUD/USD slips lower from session highs at 0.7570 after weak China Caixin PMI data.
   
• China's Nov Caixin manufacturing PMI came in at 50.8 in November vs. 50.9 expected and 51.00 last. 
   
• The pair is extending grind along downward biased 5-DMA, eyes trendline at 0.7535.
   
• Technical studies are bearish on intraday charts, RSI and Stochs have turned south. Weekly charts also support bearish bias.
   
• However, bullish divergence on RSI and Stochs keeps scope for upside in the pair. Only violation at major support at 0.7535 there could see further weakness.
   
• We see bearish invalidation on breakout at 20-DMA, scope then for test of 200-DMA at 0.7693.
   
• Focus on US ISM manufacturing PMI reading and comment from Fed officials for further direction in the pair.

Support levels - 0.7535 (double bottom June 22 and Nov 17), 0.7528 (61.8% Fib retrace of 0.7160 to 0.81250 rally), 0.75
