Business Society October 26, 2026 MTBE Trend Analysis: Volatile Rebound

ECHEMI 2026-10-27

October 26 report:

Key Takeaway: In the short term, MTBE is showing a strong rebound amid bullish‑biased volatility, with robust export growth providing demand support. However, weakening Asian benchmark prices and divergent pricing among Chinese producers cap upside potential at higher levels.

The latest available MTBE price data in China is up to October 24, 2026. It is recommended to refer to real-time data.

1. Average Difference Change Table

Difference Type Value on 2026-10-24 Value on 2026-10-23 Direction of Change
5-Day Difference (D5) 7.50 -4.00 +
10-Day Difference (D10) -35.75 -38.00 +
20-Day Difference (D20) -6.50 14.75 -

2. Signal Status Judgment

Strong rebound (bullish, rebound in nature).

3. Trend Direction Conclusion

Volatility. Reason: The direction of change in the three differences compared to the previous day is (+, +, -), which is not entirely consistent and does not meet the criteria for a clear upward or downward trend. Fundamentally, in September 2026, China's MTBE export volume increased by 33.64% year-over-year, and the export average price rose by 13.64% month-over-month, with improved external demand providing support for prices. However, recent Asian MTBE foreign market prices have been continuously declining, and the quotations from producers in Shandong, China, have shown mixed increases and decreases. There is no clear unilateral driver on either the supply or demand side, so the short-term price is expected to maintain a volatile trend.

4. Positional Space Reference

MTBE 60-day, 3-month, and 1-year cycle prices are all in the 5th tier (high), with limited room for further increases. If international prices continue to weaken or export demand declines, there is a possibility of a price correction.
