The downstream steel mill starts have declined slightly. With strong macro sentiment and international energy prices, and the relatively low price of coking coal, there is insufficient downward momentum and space in the short term. The high customs clearance of Mongolian coal suppresses the upside [1]. Trading Strategy - The main contract of coking coal is expected to fluctuate in the range of 1100 - 1200 [1].
