After Shanghai Nickel quickly recovered its 60-day moving average, it stabilized at 99000 yuan / ton. After that, the long and short sides competed near the middle track of the Bollinger Line. Most of the day fluctuated in a narrow range around 99300 yuan / ton. In the afternoon, after the short-sellers gradually weakened, Shanghai Nickel was able to break through the 100, 000 mark, reaching as high as 100350 yuan / ton, but after a short stay, both sides avoided danger and left the market. Shanghai Nickel gave back part of the increase to close at 99860 yuan / ton, up 90 yuan / ton, or 0.09%.
