October 9th News
According to the Spotcom AI assistant, this daily report is based on the mean difference analysis method, combining the latest spot price data from October 8, 2026, to analyze the trend of petcoke: The current petcoke price is in a volatile range, showing a strong rebound with a bullish bias, and the price is at a high level within the recent 1-year cycle. The upside potential is relatively limited, and it is necessary to simultaneously monitor the upstream crude oil price fluctuations and the demand changes in downstream industries such as glass and graphite electrodes in China.
I. Table of Finite Differences
| Mean Difference Indicator | Value on October 8, 2026 | Value on October 7, 2026 | Direction of Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5-Day Mean Difference (D5) | 4.00 | 0.00 | + |
| 10-Day Mean Difference (D10) | -1.75 | -7.00 | + |
| 20-Day Mean Difference (D20) | -27.25 | -20.25 | - |
II. Signal State Determination
When the three consecutive divided differences change in the sequence (+, +, -), the corresponding signal indicates a strong rebound (bullish, with a rebound character).
III. Conclusions on Trend Directions
The current trend in petroleum coke prices is volatile. 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 does not meet the criteria for a clear upward or downward trend. Overall, it remains in a volatile range, with a short-term bias towards a stronger rebound.
Note: The most recent data currently available is as of October 8, 2026; we recommend relying on real-time data.
IV. Positional Space Reference
Over the past year, petroleum coke prices have remained at a mid-to-high level—corresponding to the fourth tier of the five-tier pricing structure—within the 60%–80% range of the cycle, leaving limited room for further increases.
