Coke Price Trend Daily Report (2026.10.14)
Key Takeaways
This analysis of the coke price trend is based on the method of average difference and a comprehensive analysis of the latest spot market data. Currently, coke prices are showing a short-term characteristic of mild fluctuation and adjustment, with prices at a high level over the past year. The momentum for further increases is insufficient, and attention should be paid to the subsequent impact of changes in supply and demand upstream and downstream on prices.
I. Changes in Finite Differences
Note: The latest available data is up to October 13, 2026. It is recommended to refer to real-time data.
II. Signal State Determination
The current signal is: mild pullback (bearish, pullback in nature)
III. Conclusions on Trend Directions
The current trend of coke prices is fluctuating. The reason is that the changes in the three averages compared to the previous day are not entirely consistent. The 5-day and 10-day averages remain unchanged from yesterday, while only the 20-day average has decreased compared to yesterday. This does not meet the criteria for a clear upward or downward trend, and it is considered a mild bearish adjustment within a fluctuating range.
IV. Positional Spatial Reference
Coke prices for 60-day, 3-month, and 1-year periods in China are all at the 5th level (high) out of 5 levels, with limited room for further increases.
