1. Mean Difference Change Table
2. Signal Status Determination
The current average difference change is generally positive, indicating a strong consolidation (bullish) signal.
3. Trend Direction Conclusion
The short-term trend is oscillating (with a bullish bias). Reason: The changes in the three differentials compared to the previous day are not completely in the same direction, which does not meet the criteria for a clear uptrend or downtrend, thus it is judged as an oscillating trend. Additionally, the 20-day differential margin has shown a marginal rebound. In the spot market, major chlor-alkali enterprises in Shandong have raised their 32% ion membrane alkali quotations for two consecutive days. The improved sales in the Cangzhou area have led to a significant decrease in inventory, providing support to the prices, with a clear bullish attribute.
4. Position Space Reference
Sodium hydroxide 60-day, 3-month, and 1-year cycle prices are all in the 1st tier (the lowest 20% range within the cycle), indicating limited room for further decline and ample space for price recovery.
