Natural gas remains under strong pressure as traders stay focused on rising production.

If natural gas stays below the $2.50 level, it will head towards the next support level, which is located in the $2.25 – $2.30 range.

WTI oil made an attempt to settle above the $84.50 level but lost momentum and pulled back as traders decided to take some profits off the table near multi-week highs.

A move above the $84.50 level will push WTI oil towards the next resistance level at $87.00 – $87.50.

Brent oil has also moved lower amid profit-taking. It remains to be seen whether oil markets will find sufficient drivers ahead of the U.S. Independence Day.

The technical picture remains bullish. RSI is in the moderate territory, and there is plenty of room to gain momentum.
