After the close of trading in Shanghai Nickel yesterday, there was news of tension between China and the United States. The mood of risk aversion in the market heightened. The overnight Shanghai Nickel 2010 contract opened low at 105900 yuan / ton, and the short positions increased sharply. Shanghai Nickel continued the downward trend of opening, exploring a 60-day moving average of 104830 yuan / ton, and was supported to rebound to 105500 yuan / ton. The pressure fluctuated within a narrow range until the close of 105350 yuan / ton, down 1290 yuan / ton or 1.21% compared with the settlement price of the previous trading day.

Overnight, Shanghai Nickel closed in the long lower shadow line Xiaoyin column, and the shadow line explored the 60-day moving average.
