Ultra Short Term and Mid Term view of NATURAL GAS NG UNGTickers: NG1!, UNG
Short term view: We are finding weak support at $4.90 level on NG, or $17.50 on UNG.
We are in overall BEAR BIAS MARKET (even with the short term uptrend in the larger equities and bond market) so we will retain the retracement from the SELLERS perspective.
We find a strong case to take profit at $5.20 (NG1!) or $18.15 (UNG)
TP1: $5.20 (NG1!) / $18.15 (UNG)
TP2: $5.35 (NG1!) / $18.80 (UNG)
There is a possibility if the market exuberance continues, we can consider a mid-term view of NG
MIDTERM VIEW :
SHORT TERM VIEW:
Natural Gas: bullish reversal soon?We have a bullish reversal in the weekly and daily RSI. There is a possible expanding triangle in the daily chart suggestion on more wave up. Current price is at a possible resistance--support level.
Watch for price action to support this idea this week.
If confirmed I personally will be using UNG ( 1 x natural gas) and EQT (major USA gas producer).
As always: process your way as everyone's analysis is wrong as times.
Have a great week. Feedback always welcome.
NATURALGAS - Important level ✅Hello traders!
‼️ This is my analysis on NATURALGAS .
Here we are around to an important level, as if price breaks out the support zone I will consider that we are in a bear market, which means I will look only for shorts. Also, we could see a rejection from strong support level.

NATURAL GAS: HUGE OPPORTUNITYHi guys, following my recent analysis on silver, i'm looking also at Natgas.
In my opinion this winter we'll see many problem in Europe and if governments try to save many countries, we'll see the price fall but then rise in the coming months, just after this winter.
Why?
Well governments will try to save countries in the short term "printing money" (i mean with interest rate, qe, etc) but then they will be forced to did a step back pushing the price up. Europe need gas, it's improbable to not see the price go up.
Be prepared and let's see.
Natural Gas / NG - It's Officially a Bear. Now, Hold My BeerThis post is a continuation of a previous post, which is based on a longer-term analysis:
Natural Gas / NG - What, Truly, Is a Bull?
With Wednesday-Friday and Monday morning's long-awaited dump into the fabled double bottom around $7.4, natural gas can only be considered to have formally shifted into a bearish market structure, based on both the 4H and Daily candles.
Note that the dump also breached range equilibrium.
What this means, is that it's finally time to look for a 45-day short play on natural gas. Remember, Freeport is supposed to re-open for export to Europe in mid-November, so in principle you'd want to see the downside manipulation occur before then.
However, all this time, big firms have been shipping U.S. natural gas via boat to Europe, and making more than $100 million a shipment in the process . Demand has been so enormous that there aren't enough ships on the planet available to meet it.
So it's not that U.S. Henry Hub pricing hasn't reflected the demand problem caused by Europe shooting itself in the knees trying to spite Putin and Russia so it can fit in with cool kids in the Globalist Bloc. It has.
It's just that the reality is, no matter the news and how it's framed, an energy crisis is coming to North America too.
You just won't see it until inflation starts to dip. Energy prices have to come down for inflation to dip. Once inflation dips, it will rip again, because it hasn't topped yet. Anyone who says inflation has peaked obviously can't read The Diagram, and nobody who is unable to read The Diagram is worthy of being a Doctor.
Regarding price action, once something as turbulent as natural gas dumps, and dumps a lot, and takes out key pivots, you have to be careful. At present the market makers are still employing these patterns where they seek and destroy to the downside and then quickly seek and destroy the upside.
It's very hard to catch a truly trending market at the moment, and so you have to employ a surgical strike style of trading and positioning rather than trying to get long or get short and rack up the Sklansky Bucks comfortably.
For example, the stock indexes look like they're going to bounce, and probably hard, before the next big leg down, regardless of what comes out of Wednesday's FOMC:
SPX500 / ES - It's Still a Bull. Now, Good Luck Riding It
With natural gas, what I'm really looking for here to position puts for November is a bounce into the $8.9 range. The problem is, the natural gas market makers are not so polite. They don't want you along for their ride. It's their ride, and if you're good enough to figure it out, you can make money. But if you can't, they will buck you off and you can watch from the sidelines.
They're a lot like angry cowboys, and so there is a possibility that is far from negligible that a number like $9.6 prints again before we see the next move down.
Or at least a number that starts with $9.
Regardless, in my opinion, once this bear is finished growling and knocking over trees, we will actually begin to see trending markets again. They won't trend for all that long, but you won't get bounces this time. It'll just landslide or gap down to where it wants to go and collect all the badly positioned longs or the longs who somehow never took profit during a run to $10.
WTI Oil, likewise, is in the same boat.
WTI Crude / CL - An Intervention: Saving Blind Bulls
Although its price pattern is more notable in that it once again traded back to the $81 gap and bounced again. If it runs the $91 double top it left behind and keeps going up, it might just be a bull run again. But if it just crushes $91 and starts to fall, you can surely expect numbers like $69 and $50 are en route, no matter what the fundamentals say about global demand.
What you're ultimately looking at with the positioning of the markets, whether it be copper, soybeans, stocks, is you're looking at first some bouncing and then what is likely a market-wide sell off with some days of panic that is simultaneously subdued and overexaggerated.
All of which is designed to have you sell low and then buy back higher with half your account left intact.
Consider that last week's CPI dump took 200 points from the SPX in a few hours, but only raised the VIX by like 3 points. VIX 28 is now a ceiling. VIX 40-42 will be where you find the bottoms. VIX 72 will come when the markets truly start to head to the downside.
After the global avalanche is finished, you'll likely see the Nasdaq be extremely strong for a few months. SPX will be okay, but will be drug down by energy companies, which won't do particularly well because they'll be drug down by natural gas and WTI accumulating at low prices. Dow will probably be better than SPX but worse than Nasdaq on account of its defense contractors likewise accumulating at low prices.
Once retail is done gorging themselves stupid on $30 SNAP and $45 BBBY and $198 AAPL, reality will unfold. Stocks will crash, hard.
WTI and Natural Gas and other commodities (Except for silver and gold. Seriously. Quit being a moonboy on ancap stuff. It'll rot your teeth.) will make major new highs and energy companies and defense contractors will become the safe haven in the markets.
When those days unfold, you can expect major geopolitical turbulence, which can include as much as the collapse of the Chinese Communist Party. You can also see significant natural and manmade disasters unfold. It won't be a pleasant time. But you should know that what unfolds will appear chaotic but actually be orderly.
Everything unfolding in the world is orderly and well arranged. This world will not be destroyed, although there will be significant hardship for many regions, and few will find the outcome comfortable.
But for now, you can focus on trying to make money. You have the difficult task of trying to find a time to short natural gas inside of a 15% possible range. You can short $8.9, but they really might take that $9.3 pivot. If you wait for the $9.3 pivot, you might not get filled and miss the move.
This kind of move back up is also designed to dump the ETFs, many of which trade on 2x leverage (10% natural gas move = 20% ETF dump), so big pockets can get fat long for the real dump.
It's very annoying. They're really very annoying about how they do things. It's a constant gut check and a series of difficult and suboptimal circumstances, because time is an excellent weapon and they use it very well.
You should know that all the decisions you face when trading and all the loss and gain you come across are actually opportunities to cultivate your mind and your heart. They're chances to improve.
Every thought and feeling you have while doing this is you forging yourself like quicksilver being refined inside of a crucible powered by burning hydrogen.
Everything depends on how you improve your heart and employ your rationality. Fear and greed are your greatest enemies.

NATURAL GAS NEAR DEMAND ZONENatural Gas has seen a sharp fall within past few weeks from 9.051 to 5.480 within 7 to eight weeks only. This is more than 35% fall. Now it has reached near the major support zone where there was high demand during the July month, we can buy Natural Gas now and aim for 6.508 price level
Natural Gas | Need More LowThursday, 20 October 2022
16:13 PM (WIB)
Natural Gas is entering a bullish area as it broke 61.8% but still heading to 78.6% or even more low.
I’m expecting the price could hit the ground support for more easy and minimalist risk to trades.
If the price reaches the ground support, the Head and Shoulder Structure Patterns would be the best direction to trade.
Oct 19,22-NG down to 5.5-going all in BUYSo price action has continued to fall and I'm leveraged a bit now. I put in another Buy order at 5.5 wondering if tomorrow is the day when price action rebounds because of the storage report. Who knows - it's anyones guess. Price might fall down to 5, I dunno.
But if it rebounds tomorrow, I'll be in good shape. Price has continued to fall because of warmer than expected weather across the U.S. throughout Oct and into the beginning of Nov.
As soon as that first cold snap comes, I will be sitting pretty to take advantage.
Stay safe all.

EQT Natural Gas Domestic Player will Top Soon$50-52 in a week or two would be ideal
this is over-cooked and the macro-tailwinds can rapidly become headwind
anti-ESG sentiment is at all time highs
People are now conditioned to believe in a Fossil-Fuel Super Cycle, to protect them against failing Tech investments from 2021
Oct 17,22-NG Put in a Buy Order @ 6So price action has dropped like crazy for NG...I still have my Buy order at 7 so I added another Buy order at 6.
I think the lowest price will go will be around 5.5. I will put another Buy Order in at 5.5 if it gets that low, otherwise I will ride the price action back up to infinity and beyond!
ok....maybe just to 10 or so.
Anyway, stay safe everyone - as you can see, price action is now OUTSIDE the Linerar Regression Indicator so price should be going up any week now. Not to mention the War and the Winter and Euro and Asian NG prices skyrocketing...anyway.

NATURALGAS - Breaks out the range ✅Hello traders!
⁉️This is my analysis on NaturalGas .
Here we are in a range for couple of weeks, I expect price to break out the range to fill the imbalance and then to reject from resistance.

NG - The ConsolidationFor the last few weeks, NG has been consolidating as the other financial markets move all over the place.
The bearish head & shoulders pattern from June/August may not apply anymore due to the flattening. In previous natural gas declines (like late 2005-early 06) it would decline quickly and sharply after showing this sort of pattern. This does not look anything like that.
Even if it were to go down further, it needs to go up to some sort of support (I marked the ~$7.80 on my chart) so that it can regain the lost momentum. It seems to be bouncing off a longer-term trendline, which could be problematic.
That being said, it doesn't have to be very volatile and it could quickly reject.
I would recommend waiting for it to go to some sort of level and entering short there. My overall bias on this chart & natural gas in general is to the short side. Every time NG has been up to these levels for whatever reason, it goes back down again even if just to $4 or $5.
Any sort of breakdown below the trendline could also hold.
The winter is coming up, though, and you may have to adjust for a slight bullish bias if you plan to keep holding anything.
Taf's Gun to the HeadLooking buy Nat Gas on the backdrop of a strong daily support holding.There is also a potential bullish inverse Head and Shoulders forming.

Natural gas trading idea.NATGAS has a lot of big fundamental factors currently, with Russia controlling I believe 75% of the worlds NATGAS reserves we are seeing the tampering of supply alter the market price alot.
Coming into the winter months we could see the price rise considerably as everyone tries to store as much gas as possible we could see supply side issues.
Ideally TWAP turning green gives a good indication of any further imbalance.
