November 2nd, according to news,
[Key Takeaway] MTBE prices are currently stabilizing and trending stronger. In the short term, they are supported by upstream methanol cost levels and marginal restocking for gasoline blending demand. However, with the cycle at a high level, upside is limited, and the market is expected to remain in a mild, stronger-range-bound fluctuation.

2. Signal Status Determination
The current three deviations are all positive compared to the previous day, indicating a clear upward signal.
3. Trend Direction Conclusion
The current price trend is a slight and strong increase (upward fluctuation). The reasons are: the changes in the three averages compared to the previous day are all positive, meeting the clear criteria for an upward trend; fundamentally, the upstream methanol imports have contracted, and prices have cost support. In Shandong, MTBE manufacturers' quotations stabilized and increased on October 30 after a previous reduction. As the peak season for winter gasoline blending approaches, there is a marginal restocking demand from downstream, providing a bottom support for prices.
4. Positional Space Reference
MTBE 60-day cycle price is in the 4th tier (high-mid position) out of 5 tiers, while the 3-month and 1-year cycle prices are both in the 5th tier (high position) out of 5 tiers. The upside potential is limited due to the high position, and the overall upward movement is constrained.
