Natural gas continues its attempts to settle below the support level at $3.60 – $3.65 as traders stay focused on cooler weather trends.
If natural gas settles below the $3.60 level, it will move towards the next support at $3.35 – $3.40.
WTI oil tests new highs as traders stay focused on the U.S. – China tariff deal, which lowered tariffs for 90 days. The lower-than-expected U.S. Inflation Rate report provided additional support to WTI oil.
In case WTI oil climbs above the 50 MA at $64.33, it will head towards the resistance level at $66.00 – $66.50.
Brent oil rallied as U.S. imposed sanctions on firms that sent Iranian oil to China. Traders bet that Iranian oil exports would decline, which will be bullish for oil markets.
A successful test of the resistance at $67.00 – $67.50 will open the way to the test of the next resistance level at $71.00 – $71.50.
