Market research and judgment: Shanghai Aluminum's 2018 contract fluctuated at a high level. The recent rise in the US dollar has been temporarily suspended. The details of the US employment report last week alleviated market concerns about the timing of US interest rate hikes. This week, we still need to continue to pay attention to the minutes of the Federal Reserve meeting released on Wednesday, which may contain more details about the thinking of policymakers. Yesterday, the State Reserve’s aluminum dumping reserve public bidding, and the market actively participated, the current price of 18074 yuan/ton for dumping reserve was collected at the highest price by large Henan investors, and the impact of reserve dumping was continued in the short term. Recently, the market has once again reported that aluminum plants that had stopped production for a long time have begun to resume production, and supply in Yunnan has also recovered, and operating capacity is expected to increase marginally. However, the current Shanghai aluminum inventory decline and the Shanghai aluminum warehouse receipts on the Shanghai Futures Exchange continue to fall and go low, providing support for aluminum prices to rise. Generally speaking, the recent resilience of the aluminum market's consumption still exists, and it is basically facing strong price support. Technically, the 1-hour MACD indicator DIFF and DEA of the AL2018 contract form a cross with a small green column. Operationally, the 18800-19500 range sells high and buys low, with a stop loss of 150 points.
