VII. Scenario Analysis
The scenario analysis is based on 2026-10-08 settlement data, with core assumptions consistent with the technical and supply-demand conclusions in the first half; the base case direction is bullish, with probabilities and trigger conditions for three scenarios as follows: 1. Base case (probability 65%): trigger condition is the rapeseed meal main continuous settlement price holding above 2313.33 CNY [2026-10-08 settlement]; corresponding action is to hold long positions, with the target price carried over from the resistance level of 2364.33 CNY (pivot R1) in the first half, and if broken, upside toward 2442 CNY (20-day channel upper band); 2. Bullish scenario (probability 20%): trigger condition is the night session price breaking above 2365 CNY (2026-10-08 night session high); corresponding action is to add to long positions, with the target price moving up to 2442 CNY (20-day channel upper band); 3. Bearish scenario (probability 15%): trigger condition is the rapeseed meal main continuous settlement price breaking below 2313.33 CNY [2026-10-08 settlement]; corresponding action is to close all long positions, with the target price looking down to 2275 CNY (20-day channel lower band). The trigger conditions and target prices for all three scenarios strictly follow the key-level definitions in the first half, with no new independent support or resistance levels added, ensuring consistency and continuity of the analysis.
VIII. Trading Strategies & Risk Management
Trading strategies and risk management strictly cite the established strategies and risk conversion rules, as follows: verbatim citation of the two established long plans: Plan 1: Long, entry 2355 / stop-loss 2305 / target 2430 / horizon 1-5d / risk-reward 1:1.5; Plan 2: Long, entry 2340 / stop-loss 2287.4 / target 2418.9 / horizon 1-5d / risk-reward 1:1.5. The basis for stop-loss placement is: Plan 1's stop distance of 50 CNY corresponds to 1.05x ATR (ATR14 is 47.786 CNY), and Plan 2's stop distance of 52.6 CNY corresponds to 1.1x ATR, both able to cover normal intraday volatility and avoid stop-outs from short-term noise; on position sizing, the single-trade risk budget for both plans is 6,698 CNY, corresponding to a reference cap of 12 lots; add/reduce rules must strictly follow risk-control requirements, with no independent adjustment of lot size or position scale; the horizon is set at 1-5 days to match the fluctuation cycle of the short-term trend, ensuring the timeliness and effectiveness of the strategy.
