OPINION :

The market currently appears to be pricing the supply-demand balance clearly in favor of buyers. A combination of expectations regarding HDD/CDD for the coming weeks and relatively high inventories/production pushed US natural gas contract prices to new local lows in April/May. Given where the NATGAS futures market is now, the potential for further declines is clearly limited (for example due to uncertainty surrounding the situation in the Strait of Hormuz), and any upside surprise on the demand side could trigger a sharp upward correction.

Methodology and assumptions:

• The recommendation is based on technical chart analysis, in particular EMA moving averages and Fibonacci levels.
• The target level was determined based on Fibonacci levels.
• The protective stop loss order was set based on a favorable risk-reward ratio and is also based on a Fibonacci level.
