Natural gas markets have been rather choppy over the last several sessions, but it does look like we are trying to find some type of base below.

Natural gas markets have fallen initially during the trading session on Wednesday but have turned bullish by the middle the day to show signs of strength yet again. Ultimately, this is a market that I think continues to find plenty of interest, and therefore it is worth paying attention to the fact that we have formed a bit of a tale on the candle. Beyond that, the tail filled the gap from several candles ago, so that is also another technical reason to think that perhaps the buyers are starting to make their presence known again.

Above, we have the 50 day EMA sitting around the $1.80 level, so it does suggest that we might have a bit of resistance there, and of course it is a large, round, psychologically significant figure which of course attracts a lot of attention. In fact, it seems to me that natural gas likes to dance around the $0.10 figures, so all of this lines up quite nicely.

That being said, I do believe that it is only a matter of time before we get the opportunity to buy on dips, and perhaps even make a move above the $1.80 level to go looking towards the $2.00 level. Ultimately, this is a market that I think will continue to see volatility but if the oversupply of drilling in the United States continues to face a significant amount of bankruptcies, that could send this market much higher. Furthermore, people are starting to bet on the idea of economies reopening.
