However, caution is still needed when going long, and the short - call strategy can be continued [43].

The short - term contract is recommended to be traded with a bearish oscillation strategy, and the long - term contract can be slightly long - positioned after the emergence of a rebound driver [44][45]. Caustic Soda - The caustic soda market is in an oversupply situation. The electricity price provides some support for the futures price. An oscillating trading strategy is recommended [46].

The price of LPG is expected to weaken relative to crude oil next week [49]. Pulp - The pulp market is stable.
