Is there a chance the price of natural gas will hit $4?If you want to be notified every time I post a new article, just click 'FOLLOW' above. Also, if you want to learn more about a particular topic or need some advice, please comment below the article and I'll be happy to help. Global gas markets are slowly rebalancing, but Russian gas supplies to Europe are expected to remain limited until 2023. In 2022, European and global gas markets faced a sharp reduction in gas supplies after Russia cut its supplies through European Union pipelines by 80%. This has led to the emergence of a global energy crisis. Thanks to the pleasant climate, the increase in the export of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) and the drastic decrease in the demand for gas, European stocks are filled to around 60%. This helped cushion the shock of the pandemic. The IEA indicated in a report on the gas market that diminishing market concerns coupled with current reserves are grounds for cautious confidence about security of supply. This gives an indication that there will be sufficient gas supply during the summer. 'While forecasts for gas markets in 2023 are encouraging, future volatility cannot be totally ruled out...global gas supply will remain quite tight by 2023 and the global balance is subject to a surprisingly large variety of possible scenarios. According to the report. There are many risks, such as unfavorable weather conditions which can lead to a shortage of LNG and the possibility of a decrease in Russian supplies to Europe. All this could renew tensions on the markets and increase price volatility. Europe has seen an unprecedented drop in gas consumption of 16%, or 55 billion cubic meters (bcm), during the 2022/23 heating season. This is good news that shows that Europe is becoming more attentive to sustainability. The study results show that the EU only needs half the level of storage injection recorded in the summer of 2022 to meet the 90% storage target by the start of the 2023/24 heating season. Liquid natural gas (LNG) now makes up two-thirds of the European Union's gas imports, meeting one-third of its gas demand during the 2022/23 heating season. A 25% increase was observed, amounting to around 20 bcm for European LNG imports, while more than 45% of the additional supply comes from the United States. Global supply of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is projected to increase by just 4% by 2023, which is less than the expected reduction in Russian gas supplies to Europe, so the outlook is not as bad as it seems from appearances. At the moment, I am checking inventory levels on a weekly basis to evaluate whether to buy gas. Gas supply is currently plentiful due to current record production. With a summer of drought and extreme temperatures expected, we could see inventories shrink due to higher cooling demand. The first heat waves will probably arrive in June, and that's when I plan to buy natural gas for the summer. My calculations indicate that gas prices could be $4 in the third part of the year if the predicted extreme heat occurs.

Natural Gas: Has it Found a Bottom?Natural gas made a stunning rally to an all-time high, only to come crashing back down again. It's been a while since we last covered natural gas, so let's take a look at what's happened since then. The previous technical & seasonality setup played out perfectly with the RSI bouncing off the low and the rally into the winter season, hitting our profit target and extending further. This time, we're seeing a similar setup on a different timescale. Zooming out, natural gas has retraced the entire move it made in the past three years and is now back to pre-COVID levels. The question is, has natural gas found a bottom here? Looking at the weekly chart for natural gas over the past 20 years, we see an interesting picture. The weekly RSI has only broken past the 30 level five times over this two-decade period, and each time marked the rough bottom for natural gas. Fortunately, we're seeing this exact setup now, with prices seeming to find resistance at the $2 handle, which has also proven to be a reliable resistance level. Comparing the Henry Hub natural gas against the Dutch TTF natural gas, we can see the spread back to the lows when adjusting for the same unit measurement of MMBtu and in USD. On the fundamental side, this excerpt from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) sums up the outlook for Natural Gas vs Coal: “Natural gas-fired generation capacity in the United States has grown in recent years, although coal-fired generation has continued to decline. Lower coal-fired generation is due to a long-term trend of coal power plant retirements and increased competition with natural gas-fired combined-cycle plants when natural gas prices are low. A total of 11.5 gigawatts (GW) of U.S. coal-fired electricity generating capacity retired in 2022. No new coal-fired capacity has come online since 2013, and developers have not reported any plans to build new U.S. coal-fired capacity in the future. In contrast, nearly 6.1 GW of natural gas-fired capacity was added in 2022, according to our Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory.” Natural Gas saw a record high for the winter heating season. Additionally, close to 23% of US coal plants have plans to retire by 2029, and the last new coal plant that came online in the US was in 2013, 10 years ago. With coal plants being the second-largest source of electricity in the US and supply being cut, energy has to come from somewhere else. While the push for renewable energy continues, natural gas remains the main source of energy production. The dissipation of supply from retiring coal plants will likely be filled by natural gas. The reason being? Natural Gas currently remains most reliable form of energy source, while nuclear faces political pushbacks and Wind, Hydro & Solar have unpredictable/intermittent generation capacity. Lastly, the Dollar sits on a key level now. If broken, the weakening dollar could drive commodities prices higher en masse. All in all, the case to long natural gas from here seems reasonable, with the fundamental outlook for Natural gas still positive and the technical set-up pointing to a low. Taking a long position at the current levels of 2.186 and setting our stops at 1.85 and our first take profit level at 3.1 gives us a reasonable halfway point while setting our next take profit level at 3.8 gives us a higher profit potential if prices continue to rise.

Natgas: More pressure! 💪You know this one? Pascal: “Hurry up! Get a move on! We really need to get going!” - “Whoa, that’s a lot of pressure for just one Pascal…!” Okay okay, bad jokes aside, Natgas does need a bit more pressure to rise from the compound consisting of the white zone between $1.880 and $3.436, the blue zone between $2.407 and $3.277 and the pink zone between $2.573 and $3.439. Above this conglomerate, it should finish wave iv in pink before turning downwards to develop wave 2 in green, which should then lead below the bottom of the white zone. Once this prominent low is established, Natgas should take off again. However, there is a 40% chance that Natgas could leave the white zone on the southern side, thus expanding wave alt.2 in green earlier already.
