2. Signal Status Determination
The current signal is a strong rebound (bullish, of a rebound nature) in China.
3. Trend Direction Conclusion
The short-term trend is a choppy, slightly bullish rebound. The rationale: the 5-day, 10-day, and 20-day moving averages did not all shift in the same direction compared to the previous day, failing to meet the criteria for a clear uptrend or downtrend; overall, the market remains in a range-bound pattern. The directional combination (+, +, −) signals a strong, bullish rebound. Fundamentally, recent methanol auction prices in China have edged up, while September import volumes declined sharply month-on-month, providing some support to prices. However, downstream demand remains generally weak, putting upward pressure on the price.
4. Position and Spatial Reference
60-day cycle price is in the 3rd tier (median), while 3-month and 1-year cycle prices are in the 4th tier (high-median). The short-term upward space is limited.
