FxWirePro: AUD/CHF upside capped at 21-EMA, near-term outlook bullish

AUD/CHF chart - Trading View 

AUD/CHF was trading 0.32% higher on the day at 0.5930 at around 08:55 GMT.

The pair has paused upside at 21-EMA which is offering stiff resistance at 0.5954.

Aussie remains bid after upbeat China PMI data and mildly positive risk-tone across markets.

China’s official Manufacturing and Non-Manufacturing PMIs for March surprised markets with upbeat numbers.

The headline manufacturing PMI stood at 52.00, beating forecast at 45 while the Non-Manufacturing PMI rose to 52.3 compared to 37.8 expected.

Momentum still with the bulls. Stochs and RSI are biased higher. MACD shows a bullish crossover on signal line. 

Major trend is strongly bearish, but minor trend is turning slightly bullish. Break above 21-EMA could see further gains.

Next hurdle for bulls lies at 50% Fib at 0.6115 ahead of 55-EMA at 0.6218. Rejection at 21-EMA negates any bullish bias.

Support levels - 0.5870 (5-DMA), 0.5791 (200H MA)

Resistance levels - 0.5953 (21-EMA), 0.6115 (50% Fib)
