Weakness Into Expiration Is the Recent Trend

Daily Continuous

Expect prompt August to be offered lower but likely recover into expiration as most prompts this year have…the last three settlements were $3.170, $3.204 and $3.261. Expect prompt gas to remain rangebound as it takes over as prompt and during expiration.

Major Support: $3.054-$3.007, $2.97, $2.727, $2.648,
Minor Support : $3.30-$3.26

Rebound Off of Support Test

Daily Continuous

The declines neglected challenging the key support area and on the storage release rallied over $.10 but gave the gains up during the remaining trade. Still believe that any declines will be rejected at the support lows — that said would not load up on length.

Major Support: $3.054-$3.007, $2.97, $2.727, $2.648,
Minor Support $3.30-$3.26
Major Resistance:$3.16-$3.25, $3.43, $4.168, $4.461, $4.501

Testing the August Contract Lows

Daily Continuous

The initial test of the August low was met with expected support. That support may not suggest a rally to take prices to test resistance. The low test is not complete as the internals hint additional declines may be coming.

Major Support: $3.25-$3.16, $3.054-$3.007, $2.97, $2.727, $2.648,
Minor Support :$3.62, $3.46, $3.30-$3.26
Major Resistance:$4.168, $4.461, $4.501

Testing August Low’s

Daily Continuous

As mentioned yesterday, personal family issues are going to minimize the analysis for the early part of the week. All I can say about yesterday’s and tomorrow’s trade will be seeking the lows of the calendar July with the August contract.

Major Support: $3.25-$3.16, $3.054-$3.007, $2.97, $2.727, $2.648,
Minor Support :$3.62, $3.46, $3.30-$3.26

Continue Lower

Daily Continuous

Explain the brevity of the Daily due to some issues explained in the Weekly Section. While I wait in the ER for my dog it is evident that the market wants to trade lower tomorrow. Hang tough or keep playing the low end of the Aug range.

Minor Support :$3.62, $3.46, $3.30-$3.26

Break Out ?

Daily Continuous

Would consider a break above $3.50 a breakout and the fact it was not held with volume expansion (nor open interest– not published yet) I would consider it a top of the range test. Hang tight — volatility will appear sometime.

Major Support: $3.25-$3.16, $3.054-$3.007, $2.97, $2.727, $2.648,
Minor Support :$3.62, $3.46, $3.30-$3.26
Major Resistance:$4.168, $4.461, $4.501
