Natural Gas Corner - Technical Update - December 15 New Front Month Contract




The new front month December 15 natural gas contract remains in very bearish downtrend falling  to a new contract low at 2.263 during Wednesday’s trade before settling at 2.298.

The December low comes over .300 above the 1.948 low set by the now expired November 15 contract which remains a longer term support level.

2.324-2.340 is the first area of resistance today followed by the open gap area between 2.450-2.483 created on Monday.  Longer term resistance is the 10 day moving average currently at 2.500.

The 2.263 contract low is the first area of support for the December contract.  The 1.948 low set earlier this week held above the previous weekly low of 1.902 from April 2012.  This could be a long term low for the natural gas market regardless of the near term bearish outlook.
