Alumina Futures 2605 Contract Drops with Bearish Technical Signs

Published: Feb 12, 2026 09:26
Overnight, the alumina futures 2605 contract opened lower and trended downward. After briefly touching a high of 2,850 yuan/mt at the opening, it fluctuated and pulled back, closing at 2,818 yuan/mt in the final session, marking the intraday low. Trading volume surged significantly by 59,000 lots to 148,000 lots, while open interest increased by 6,579 lots to 306,000 lots. The simultaneous rise in volume and open interest indicates an intensifying tug-of-war between longs and shorts, with active selling pressure strengthening. On the technical indicator front, the short-term moving average system exerted downward pressure on the futures: the closing price clearly fell below both the MA5 (2,838.6) and MA30 (2,832.17), while also breaking through the MA10 (2,823.9) support. The three moving averages are converging but show signs of a bearish alignment, suggesting a weakening short-term technical outlook.

[SMM Aluminum Express News] Indonesia's sovereign wealth fund Danantara (Badan Pengelola Investasi Daya Anagata Nusantara) has taken full control of the strategic PLTSa (waste-to-energy power plant) project in Samarinda, East Kalimantan. Head of Samarinda PUPR Office Desy Damayanti stated that per the latest 2026 central government regulation, local governments can no longer pursue independent agreements with investors, all PLTSa projects must go through Danantara as a single gateway. This centralization ensures uniform technology standards, financing schemes, and national oversight across Indonesia. It automatically cancels Samarinda's prior negotiations with a South Korean investor.
