Futures: From a technical perspective, the SHFE aluminium 2601 contract rose slightly by 0.28 per cent to RMB 21,750 per tonne during the night session on November 11, showing an overall pattern of fluctuating upward within a narrow range. The moving averages (MA5, MA10, MA30, MA60) were densely distributed in the range of 21,731-21,737, with the price slightly above the moving averages, indicating a short-term bullish bias but limited momentum. In the MACD indicator, the DIF (1.8998) was higher than the DEA (1.0469), and the histogram was positive (1.7058), showing mild upward momentum but insufficient strength. The trading volume was 77,905 lots, accompanied by an increase in open interest of 8,954 lots, reflecting a slight inflow of funds. Referencing the night session's low of 21,635 and high of 21,780, short-term support is expected at 21,700-21,730 (the MA dense area and previous low), while resistance is seen at 21,780-21,800 (previous high and psychological resistance). The overall market is in a tug-of-war between longs and shorts, and the direction of the breakout needs to be watched.

Macro front: The U.S. announced the suspension of the export control rule of penetration from November 10, 2025, to November 9, 2026. The Ministry of Commerce responded, stating that this is an important measure by the U.S. to implement the consensus from the China-U.S. Kuala Lumpur economic and trade consultations. Arrangements after the one-year suspension will continue to be discussed.
