Natural Gas Corner - Technical Update - Potentially Bullish "Hammer" Candlestick Posted On Thursday




The October 15 natural gas contract traded down to a new contract low on Thursday at 2.521 following release of the weekly EIA storage report.

Weakness was short-lived as buyers soon came in rallying the contract to a higher close on the  day settling at 2.591, up .022.

A potentially bullish Japanese candlestick called a “hammer” was posted on Thursday but needs to be confirmed with a higher close today.  If the market  does close higher today, a short and possibly long low could be set in the market.

The 2.604 weekly high is the first area of resistance followed by the 10 day moving average currently at 2.625.

Bottom line – Another key technical test for the natural gas market following yesterday’s bullish reversal.

Technical Indicators:  Moving Average Alignment – Bearish
                                         Long Term Trend Following Index – Bearish
                                         Short Term Trend Following Index - Bearish
