Natural Gas, WTI Oil, Brent Oil Forecasts – Oil Pulls Back As Traders Take Profits Near Multi-Week Highs

Natural Gas

Natural gas remains under strong pressure as traders stay focused on supply glut. The recent EIA report served as an additional bearish catalyst for natural gas prices.

A move below the support at $2.25 – $2.30 will open the way to the test of the next support level at $2.00 – $2.05.

WTI Oil

WTI oil pulls back as traders take some profits off the table near multi-week highs. The U.S. Unemployment Rate report, which indicated that Unemployment Rate increased from 4% to 4.1%, may have served as an additional bearish catalyst for WTI oil.

The technical picture remains bullish but WTI oil needs to settle above the $84.50 level to have a chance to gain additional upside momentum.

Brent Oil

Brent oil made an attempt to settle above the $88.00 level but lost momentum and pulled back amid profit-taking.

RSI is in the moderate territory, so there is plenty of room to gain additonal upside momentum in case the right catalysts emerge next week.
