Natural Gas Prices Forecast
Prices of Natural Gas started the week on a negative fashion. Further downside remains on the table, however, supported by increasing open interest and erratic volume.
In fact, Natural Gas tested levels last seen in mid-April on Monday before rebounding a tad and close the session just above the $1.80 mark per MMBtu. Further downside momentum should see the $1.680 region revisited (April 16) ahead of the 2020 low at $1.574 (April 2). The potential rebound, however, carries the potential to extend to the key barrier at $2.00, although a stronger catalyst is needed to extend the move further north on a sustainable fashion.
