August 24th News
On August 23, 2026, the market price of epichlorohydrin in China showed an overall oscillating trend. In the short term, the average difference indicators were clearly divergent, while the medium- to long-term prices remained at a relatively low level, demonstrating a strong resistance to decline. From a cyclical indicator perspective, the 5-day average difference slightly declined, the 10-day average difference marginally increased, and the 20-day average difference remained stable. The inconsistent trends across multiple cycles indicated no clear unilateral upward or downward trend.

The limited room for further decline and the robust bottom support collectively presented a market pattern characterized by oscillation and resilience against declines.
1. Average Difference Variation Table
| Average Difference Type | Today's Value (2026-08-23) | Yesterday's Value (2026-08-22) | Direction of Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5-day Average Difference (D5) | 80 | 120 | - |
| 10-day Average Difference (D10) | -160 | -240 | + |
| 20-day Average Difference (D20) | -320 | -320 | Flat |
2. Signal status determination
Volatility (with a slight bias toward resistance to declines, as the 5-day moving average difference is declining, the 10-day moving average difference is rising, and the 20-day moving average difference remains stable—these directional changes are not entirely consistent, fitting the characteristics of volatility that tend to resist downward pressure).
3. Trend Direction Conclusion
The price trend is ranging. Reason: The directions of change in the three moving averages are not entirely consistent (the 5-day moving average decreased compared to yesterday, the 10-day moving average increased compared to yesterday, and the 20-day moving average remained unchanged from yesterday). Since these averages do not meet the criteria for a clear upward or downward trend, the market is classified as ranging.
4. Positional Spatial Reference
The price of epichlorohydrin over a 1-year cycle in China is at a low level, with limited room for further decline; the 60-day and 3-month cycles are at a medium to low level, with the overall price position being relatively low, providing some support against further drops.
