Natural Gas: Bullish Crossover Could Resist Bears Below $3.2

 | May 09, 2021 10:25PM ET


Natural gas futures, which has been continuing to maintain well above $2.957, seems to have set this immediate support level for some time now. As such, we could see a breakout move today that would breach the psychological resistance at $3.

I find that the natural gas bulls have formed a strong base at $2.955 to thrash bears shortly. Undoubtedly, a sustainable move of natural gas futures above $3.062 could generate a short-covering rally.

I believe that a bullish crossover formation in the daily chart ensures an uptrend in natural gas futures this week. Despite growing volatility, natural gas futures have regained much of its strength above $2.9 to enable it to proceed to test $3.165 shortly.

The average trading range for natural gas futures could remain between $2.5 to $3.2 till the end of this month, but, the overall trend could be in favor of bulls during the upcoming weeks.
