The current spot market trend for acetone, based on the average difference method analysis, shows a fluctuating and bullish retracement pattern, with prices at a high point in the nearly 1-year cycle. Subsequently, it is necessary to closely monitor the fluctuations in the upstream costs of propylene and pure benzene, as well as the demand for downstream products such as bisphenol A, MIBK, and isopropanol.

IV. Conclusion on Trend Direction
The current trend in acetone prices is oscillating (with a bullish bias). The reason is that the changes in the 5-day, 10-day, and 20-day moving averages compared to the previous day are not entirely consistent, which meets the criteria for an oscillating trend. Additionally, with the presence of a bullish signal after a pullback, the bullish forces have an advantage in the short-term oscillation.
Five, Position and Spatial Reference
Acetone prices for 60-day, 3-month, and 1-year cycles are all in the 5th tier (high) range, with limited room for further increases.
