Prices Expand the Range

Daily Continuous

Spoke last week about the range that was developing for the Nov contract and discussed the expansion of the as well as the trend regarding highs and lows (Weekly section). That said, given the higher lows traded during July and August the long term downtrend appears to be evolving into a wide contracting trading range.

Wanted to alert folks to the premiums currently awarded to December and to January gas (their ability to hold those premiums, are going to be critical to the continuation of the current range. Given that uncertainty, Stick to the range for buying and selling discussed last week as the range has not dramatically changed in the last week.

Good Effort But No Cigar

Daily Continuous

The bulls tried to set up for a break out above $3.00 only to fail after the data release. Not sure how the data was interpreted as bearish to kill the gains but that fundamental information is over my pay grade. The key from my perspective is the market did not “collapse” but rather held the recent range. Take that as additional confirmation that the bias has changed. Play the suggested ranges from earlier in the week.

Major Support:, $2.112, $2.026-2.00, $1.991, $1.93 ,$1.642, $1.605
Minor Support : $2.62, $2.507-$2.44, $1.856,$1.89-$1.856
Major Resistance: $3.00, $3.16

Solid Range Developing

Daily Continuous

A higher high that took prices to test the $3.00 only to fail on the first test. That outcome should not be surprising as prices will continue to test the resistance zone. The storage report may bring additional volatility this week.

Major Support:, $2.112, $2.026-2.00, $1.991, $1.93 ,$1.642, $1.605
Minor Support : $2.62, $2.507-$2.44, $1.856,$1.89-$1.856
Major Resistance: $3.00, $3.16

Tight Consolidation Day

Daily Continuous

Trying to set a base for the next step higher (should it be the result) prices paused and “consolidated” the recent gains (from expiration or what ever) and now seem to be in a consolidation process. From here, would suggest buying dips on the declines and selling over the $3.10 zone.

Major Support:, $2.112, $2.026-2.00, $1.991, $1.93 ,$1.642, $1.605
Minor Support : $2.507-$2.44, $1.856,$1.89-$1.856
Major Resistance:$2.618, $3.00, $3.16

New Bias Needs to Create New Range

Daily Continuous

The market seems to be changing it’s bias after the expiration last week. Would treat this change with caution until there is solid confirmation of the next and new range.

Major Support:, $2.112, $2.026-2.00, $1.991, $1.93 ,$1.642, $1.605
Minor Support :$2.62, $2.507-$2.44, $1.856,$1.89-$1.856
Major Resistance:$3.00, $3.16

Jury Is Out

Daily Continuous

While prices were up and down during yesterday’s expiration, I am going to state that the expiration process was well supported, thereby breaking the trend of the previous expiration’s of 2024 which were all well offered during the process. What does this mean?—The bearish bias (all through this year) is starting to take some hits. The first target is the gap remaining from the premium awarded the Nov contract (even though some of that gap was closed during yesterday’s decline). This will be the first test of a confirmation of a bullish bias change.

Major Support:, $2.112, $2.026-2.00, $1.991, $1.93 ,$1.642, $1.605
Minor Support : $2.507-$2.44, $1.856,$1.89-$1.856
Major Resistance:$2.618, $3.00, $3.16

November Maintains $.20 Premium

Daily Continuous

Today is expiration and the market has not shown a weakness yet, but the verdict is not yet defined. I continue to reflect on what was identified from the trends of ’24 and will expect some weakness.

Major Support:, $2.112, $2.026-2.00, $1.991, $1.93 ,$1.642, $1.605
Minor Support : $1.856,$1.89-$1.856
Major Resistance:$2.44-$2.502, $2.618, $3.00, $3.16

Some Firming

Price action declined slightly but did not represent the weakness of the previous ’24 contracts– The jury is still out per my Daily yesterday.

Next Three Days Are Key

Daily Continuous

Mentioned in the Weekly section: … eight contract months that have gone to settlement so far in ’24 three have traded pre expiration highs on or after the 22nd. May fell hard during its last three days, August for five straight days the others had variations of weakness and timing, Once it became evident that expiring contracts were being “amply offered”…five of the eight have traded contract lows on the day they went to settlement. Have mentioned it before that, a change in that pattern would indicate a change in the character of the gas market. This week we will find out whether that change has occurred.

How do you say the rubber will be meeting the road this week. Be interesting to watch after the gains of yesterday.

Major Support:, $2.112, $2.026-2.00, $1.991, $1.93 ,$1.642, $1.605
Minor Support : $1.856,$1.89-$1.856
Major Resistance:$2.18, $2.25-$2.310, $2.39, $2.44-$$2.502, $2.618, $3.00, $3.16
