Natural Gas

Natural Gas Daily Chart

Natural Gas‘s technical outlook for October 09 shows that it’s priced at $3.48, marking a rise of about 2%, likely spurred by geopolitical tensions. The daily chart timeframe highlights several essential price levels. The pivot point for Natural Gas is pegged at $3.26. The immediate resistance lies at $3.62 and, if surpassed, could open doors towards the subsequent resistances at $3.81 and $4.17.

On the flip side, the immediate support is established at $3.07, with subsequent layers of cushion at $2.71 and $2.52. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 72, signalling overbought conditions which might suggest a near-term pullback or consolidation.

Additionally, with the price above the 50-Day Exponential Moving Average (50 EMA) of $3.1, a short-term bullish trend is affirmed. Yet, the overbought status hints at a potential correction. The asset might aim to fulfil a 38.2% Fibonacci retracement at $3.38 and could even decline further.

Overall, while the trend remains bullish, a struggle to breach $3.58 might indicate a downturn. Traders are advised to remain vigilant, closely monitoring these pivotal resistance and support levels.
