Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The current core contradiction affecting the short - term price trend of industrial silicon futures lies in the game between the macro "anti - involution" expectation and the weak fundamentals. The industry has an expectation of eliminating backward production capacity, but there are practical resistances in the process of capacity optimization. The cost of industrial silicon is mainly 30% electricity, so coal price fluctuations affect it. In November, the industry's operating rate is expected to rise, and the output in October may reach the annual high. The downstream demand shows different pulling effects, with polysilicon production scheduled to decline in November, organic silicon monomer plants having maintenance plans, and the aluminum alloy operating rate remaining stable. The market pricing logic is further inclined to polysilicon futures. [1] - In the short term, the price of industrial silicon futures will closely follow the price fluctuations of related varieties such as polysilicon and coking coal, and is likely to maintain a volatile pattern. With the arrival of the dry season, the market logic will gradually revolve around power costs, and then the downward space of industrial silicon will be limited. [2] Summary by Directory Chapter 1: Core Contradiction and Strategy Suggestions 1.1 Core Contradiction - The core contradiction is the game between the macro "anti - involution" expectation and the weak fundamentals. There are resistances in the capacity optimization process due to the industry structure. The cost of industrial silicon is affected by coal prices. The supply is expected to increase in November, and the output in October may reach the annual high. The downstream demand varies, and the market pricing logic is shifting towards polysilicon futures. [1] - Near - end trading logic (before the end of the year): The total production schedule of industrial silicon in October continues to increase, and the output on the supply side will reach the annual high. The policies of the downstream polysilicon industry will have an impact on the price of industrial silicon. [3] - Far - end trading logic (after the end of the year): The electricity price during the dry season will increase the production cost, and the price center of gravity will gradually move up. With the arrival of the off - season, the demand for industrial silicon is likely to weaken. [4] 1.2 Trading - based Strategy Suggestions - Trend judgment: Wide - range oscillation. The price ranges are: oscillation range 8400 - 9400; low - level range 7800 - 8300; high - level range 9500 - 10000. [5] - Single - side strategy: Short SI2601 at the high - level range; long SI2605 at the low - level range. [7] - Month - spread strategy: Reverse spread of SI2601 - SI2605. [7] - Basis strategy: Wait and see. [7] - Option strategy: Sell SI2601 - C - 9500 when the volatility is high; buy SI2601 - P - 8300 when the volatility is low. [7] 1.3 Industry Operation Suggestions - The support level of the industrial silicon main contract is 8000, with a current 20 - day rolling volatility of 25.2% and a historical percentile of 68.0% in 3 years. [8] - For silicon industry enterprises, different hedging strategies are proposed according to different scenarios such as sales, procurement, and inventory management, with corresponding hedging tools, ratios, and suggested entry intervals. [8] Chapter 2: Important Information and Concerned Events 2.1 This Week's Important Information Review - On October 26, the 100,000 - ton/year hydropower silicon energy - saving and environmental protection project of Yongchang Silicon Industry successfully passed the acceptance of reaching the production standard. [9] 2.2 Next Week's Concerned Events No relevant information provided. Chapter 3: Disk Interpretation 3.1 Price - Volume and Capital Interpretation - Futures trends: The closing price of the industrial silicon weighted index contract this week was 9095 yuan/ton, with a week - on - week decrease of 0.59%. The trading volume was 372,319 lots, a week - on - week decrease of 13.12%. The open interest was 408,543 lots, a week - on - week decrease of 16,059 lots. The month - spread of SI2601 - SI2605 was in a back structure, with a week - on - week increase of 25 yuan/ton. The number of warehouse receipts was 47,253 lots, a week - on - week decrease of 1074 lots. The price may weaken further, and key support levels need to be focused on. The market is in a state of equilibrium, and the wide - range oscillation range of 8600 - 9300 yuan/ton needs attention. [12][14] - Option situation: The 20 - day historical volatility of industrial silicon has been decreasing, while the implied volatility of at - the - money options has been rising significantly. The option open - interest PCR has been increasing, indicating a growing bearish sentiment in the market. [16][17] - Capital movement: The net short positions of key industrial silicon seats have increased recently, indicating signs of institutional short - selling. [19] - Month - spread structure: The current industrial silicon futures contracts show a stable contango structure. [21] - Basis structure: The basis of the industrial silicon main contract is at the average level, and there is a relatively high probability of it strengthening further. [25] 2.2 Downstream Futures and Capital Trends - Polysilicon: The closing price of the polysilicon weighted index contract this week was 52,045 yuan/ton, with a week - on - week decrease of 4.08%. The trading volume was 289,100 lots, a week - on - week decrease of 29.56%. The open interest was 231,600 lots, a week - on - week decrease of 45,300 lots. The month - spread of PS2601 - PS2605 was in a back structure, with a week - on - week increase of 40 yuan/ton.
