US Natural Gas at lowest level since August 2020

The price of Natural Gas CFDs traded to their lowest level since August 2020 as price broke through 2.262 this week. During the week of December 12^th, 2022, price reached a high of 6.882. Since then, NATGAS prices have fallen dramatically, dropping nine of the last 10 weeks prior. This week’s low, thus far, is 2.064. However, if price can close at or near 2.369 for the week, the weekly candle will have formed a hammer formation, indicating the possibility of a bounce. In addition, notice that the RSI is in oversold territory at 29.05. This also indicates that price may be oversold, and a bounce is ahead. Price is approaching additional support levels from 2020. The first level is horizontal support from July 2020 at 1.952. Below there, support crosses at the lows from June 2020 at 1.5828.
