Prediction of the later stage of caustic soda:    

Futures: in terms of caustic soda SH2405 contract transactions, 17.6% more than short opening 16.3%, empty 16.7% versus more 20.9%, although the proportion of bulls entering the market is relatively large, but long positions are also relatively more. At the technical level, the upward trend of the lower track of the Bollinger belt (13, 13, 2) slows down, and today's high price approaches the upper track position, but there is still upward pressure. The daily KD line crossover appears the golden fork trend but is not obvious, and the MACD line still shows the line golden fork. From the MA combination line point of view, the operation of the futures price is currently above the 5th, 10th, 20th line, and today's high price has broken through the 40-day line. Fundamentals and policy levels have no clear guidance on futures prices for the time being, and we still need to pay attention to the upper pressure level in the short term.

Spot aspect: near the weekend, the wait-and-see mood of the caustic soda market increased, today's price did not see a significant adjustment. At present, there are still regional differences in the caustic soda market in the face of market impact, and the inventory pressure of enterprises is less than that of the previous period, but the downstream demand has not substantially improved. Although the rigid demand supports part of the transaction, it is still unable to stimulate the real normalization of destorming, and the contradiction between supply and demand in the market still exists. At present, the influence of the supply of liquid alkali market is different in different regions. the early maintenance equipment in some areas has resumed production, and the increase in supply is bad for the local market to a certain extent, but at the same time, some regional devices are still in the maintenance period. the supply still supports the market, and it is expected that the short-term liquid alkali market will adjust prices flexibly. The price of the new order in the tablet alkali market has been raised this week, and the center of gravity of the transaction price in each regional market has moved up, and the actual transaction price in the market is slightly higher than the ex-factory quotation. It is expected that after the short-term tablet alkali market is boosted by the upward adjustment of manufacturers' quotations, transaction prices in various regional markets will mainly be sorted out, paying attention to downstream receiving.
