August 11 news
1. Mean Difference Variation Table
Difference Type Today's Value (2026-08-10) Yesterday's Value (2026-08-09) Direction of Change
5-day average difference (D5) -0.60 0.00 -
10-day average difference (D10) -0.60 -0.60 Flat
20-day average difference (D20) -0.90 -0.70 -
2. Signal Status Judgment
The current three average differences do not completely align in their change direction compared to the previous day (the 5-day and 20-day average differences are negative, while the 10-day average difference is unchanged), indicating a volatile (bearish) state.
3. Trend Direction Conclusion
The price trend is volatile (leaning bearish). Reason: The directions of change in the three moving averages are not fully consistent, failing to meet the criteria for a clear trend. The 5-day moving average has turned negative from zero, and the 20-day moving average has widened its negative slope, indicating that the short-term price center of gravity has shifted downward. Coupled with the fundamental factor that caustic soda prices in Shandong have been weak since August 10, the overall market situation presents a volatile, bearish pattern.
4. Position Space Reference
The price is at a low point in the 1-year cycle, with limited room for further decline.
Prices over the 60-day and 3-month periods are at mid-to-low levels, with relatively limited room for short-term downward movement. If positive factors—such as upward adjustments in procurement prices by alumina companies—continue to materialize on the demand side, prices could experience a temporary rebound.
