Natural Gas, WTI Oil, Brent Oil Forecasts

Natural Gas

Natural Gas 050226 Daily Chart

Natural gas continues its attempts to settle above the resistance at $3.50 – $3.55 as traders react to the EIA report, which indicated that working gas in storage decreased by -360 Bcf from the previous week.

If natural gas settles above the $3.55 level, it will move towards the next resistance at $3.95 – $4.00.

WTI Oil

WTI Oil 050226 Daily Chart

WTI oil is losing ground amid commodity market pullback. From a big picture point of view, global deleveraging, which was triggered by the sell-off in silver markets, has started to put pressure on oil prices.

A move below the $63.00 level will open the way to the test of the support at $60.00 – $60.50.

Brent Oil

Brent Oil 050226 Daily Chart

Brent oil is moving lower as traders wait for U.S. – Iran talks, which will be held in Oman on Friday.

RSI remains in the moderate territory, so there is plenty of room to gain additional momentum in the near term.
