[SMM Nickel Morning News] Nickel late diving suspected "Oolong Index" needs to pay attention to the correction today.

SMM, May 22:

The overnight Shanghai Nickel 07 contract opened at 105800 yuan / ton. From the opening of night trading to the minute before closing, the trend of Shanghai Nickel was stable, with a narrow range above 105000 yuan / ton support, but the long-term Shanghai Nickel left the market sharply and fell directly to the limit. It closed at 96070 yuan / ton, down 9040 yuan / ton, or 8.60%, compared with the previous day. The trading volume was 253000 lots, and the position decreased by 7508 lots to 109000 lots. Follow-up need to be wary of bulls opening a substantial increase in positions to enter. The speculation about Shanghai Nickel's multiple contract limit board is roughly as follows: market analysis of the nickel slump may be a big family's cut order or own single. At present, one of the hidden problems of electronic trading in the financial market is that in the event of a huge impact of large orders at some sensitive points, it may cause price changes in the case of lack of liquidity, and lead to procedural and arbitrage conditions to further lead to price imbalance and intertemporal cross-market and cross-variety decline. In addition, there are no obvious negative factors in the fundamentals, Indonesia has not released the relevant signals related to the liberalization of nickel ore exports, at present, stainless steel prices remain high, nickel pig iron is strongly supported by nickel ore costs, and nickel spot trading remains weak, but there is marginal room for improvement in the future, so market speculation may be intentional operation for funds.
