Natural Gas Corner - Technical Update - How Low Can It Go?




The January 16 natural gas contract has traded down to another new contract low in the overnight session at the 2.146 level.

Overnight selling follows a strong sell off on Wednesday which dropped the January contract lower by .066 or 2.9% to settle the session at 2.165.

The trend remains down with the 2.051 low set by the December 15 contract being the next primary support followed by 1.948  which was a 3-year low set in October.  If the market can hold above the 1.948 level as support in upcoming trade, a multi-year low could be set.

The 2.259 weekly high extending up to the 10 day moving average at 2.265 is the first area of resistance today followed by 2.350-2.360.  Longer term resistance is the 40 day moving average currently at 2.530.
