Natural Gas could slip back to $2.00
Prices of natural gas added to Friday’s losses at the beginning of the week. The negative price action was amidst increasing open interest and favours the continuation of the downtrend in the very near term. That said, the big magnet for bears remains at the $2.00 mark per MMBtu, or 2023 lows.
