Pablo Piovano FXStreet

Natural Gas Prices Forecast

The continuation of the downtrend in prices of the MMBtu of the commodity looks supported by increasing open interest. That said, the next support of relevance emerges at the monthly lows in the sub-$1.80 region for the time being.

Prices of Natural Gas are now flirting with the 55-day SMA in the $1.86 region amidst the broader bearish scenario. Further south emerges the monthly lows in the $1.80 zone ahead of late April lows around $1.70. The resumption of the upside is expected to face strong barrier in recent peaks around the $2.00 neighbourhood seconded by April’s tops near $2.10.
