Natural Gas Futures: Scope for a near-term knee-jerk

Considering advanced prints from CME Group for natural gas futures markets, open interest shrank for the 5th consecutive session on Tuesday, now by around 9.5K contracts. On the other hand, volume left behind two consecutive daily pullbacks and rose by around 68.7K contracts.
Natural Gas: Immediately to the upside comes $2.80

Looking at the broader picture, prices of natural gas seem to have embarked on a gradual recovery since early April. Against that, the next target now emerges at the weekly high near $2.80 per MMBtu seen on July 20.
