September 20th, according to news,
According to the SpotCom AI assistant, today's average spot price of petroleum coke in China remained stable at 3404 CNY/ton. Recently, the quotations of petroleum coke from Chinese refineries have seen slight increases. The upstream crude oil prices, being at a one-year high, provide strong support to the cost end. Downstream demand in areas such as glass and graphite electrodes has been steady. Through the analysis of the mean difference method, the current petroleum coke market is in a strong consolidation phase with a bullish bias, with prices at a relatively high level within a one-year cycle. In the short term, the market may continue to show a bullish trend with some volatility.

The current combination of changes in the three differences from the previous day is (－, ＋, ＋), which matches the characteristics of a strong consolidation (bullish) signal.
3. Trend Direction Conclusion
The current trend in petroleum coke prices is judged to be oscillating (with a bullish bias). Reason: The changes in the 5-day, 10-day, and 20-day moving averages compared to the previous day are not completely consistent, failing to meet the criteria for a clear upward or downward trend. Specifically, the short-term moving average has slightly declined, but the medium- and long-term moving averages continue to rise, clearly indicating an oscillating trend with a bullish bias.
4. Position Space Reference
Petroleum coke 60-day, 3-month, and 1-year cycle prices are all at a medium-high level (4th tier), with relatively limited upside potential. The downside is also constrained by the high cost support of crude oil.
