October 21 News
On October 20, the hydrogen fluoride market in China triggered a sideways consolidation signal. In the past two days, all period differences have remained flat, with no unilateral trend driving force. The 60-day cycle price is at a medium-low level, limiting the short-term downward space. However, the 3-month cycle is at a medium-high level, and the 1-year cycle is at a high level, indicating insufficient long-term upward momentum. Coupled with a slight weakening of upstream fluorspar and low operating rates of downstream refrigerants, the market is expected to maintain a consolidating pattern.

3. Trend direction conclusion
The current price of hydrofluoric acid is showing a fluctuating trend, for the following reasons: In the past two days, the 5-day, 10-day, and 20-day moving averages have all been 0, with prices remaining unchanged for two consecutive trading days. The three moving averages have shown no change in increase or decrease compared to the previous day, indicating no clear unilateral trend. Additionally, the upstream fluorspar market has seen a slight decline, and the operating rate in the downstream refrigerant industry is not high. There is no strong driver on either the supply or demand side, which aligns with the industry's expectation of short-term fluctuations in the price of hydrofluoric acid.
