The mean difference analysis shows that the current ethyl acetate price is in a strong consolidation (bullish) range, with prices at high levels across multiple periods, leaving limited room for further increases. The main drivers of the recent strong price performance are the high support from upstream raw materials and the concentrated restocking by downstream users. Relevant practitioners can reasonably arrange their procurement and sales schedules based on supply and demand dynamics. The latest available data is up to October 13, 2026, and it is recommended to refer to real-time data.

III. Conclusion on Trend Direction
The current price trend is volatile (with a bullish bias). Reason: The changes in the 5-day, 10-day, and 20-day moving average differences from the previous day are not entirely consistent, which does not meet the criteria for a clear upward or downward trend, indicating a volatile range. Additionally, the combination of indicators shows characteristics of a strong consolidation, with an overall trend that is biased towards the upside.
