Natural Gas: Next on the upside comes $2.00
Prices of the natural gas extended the steep multi-week decline for yet another session on Wednesday. The negative price action was accompanied by increasing open interest and volume, leaving the prospect for further decline well on the cards in the very near term. Of note, however, is that the current oversold condition of the commodity could spark a corrective bounce in the not-so-distant future. The next target of note for sellers emerges at the $2.00 mark per MMBtu, an area last traded back in late September 2020.
