Natural Gas Week Ahead

The natural gas market rallied during the week. On Friday it closed at $2.80, 3.80% higher than the week before. Natural gas remains 18% lower than a year ago.

Thursday’s U.S. storage report had a positive effect as withdrawals were higher than expected. However, having reached a crucial resistance level, we will be looking to sell any sign of exhaustion as opportunity arises.

We remain patient and focused on short term trading. We do not want to buy this market, not before seeing a true change in its long term trend, certainly well above $3.00. Summer is not here yet, so, this week’s demand will remain low on mild weather in the United States and Canada, therefore, a short term rise in underground stocks is expected which will negatively affect the price. A stronger US dollar will also have to be monitored. Traded volumes, changes in RSI’s direction tell us a lot, as well as the daily and 4-hour MACD.

I am still concerned about the oversupply in the #naturalgas market especially as drilling continues to ramp up.
