Natgas
NATURAL GAS - NatGas - shortAs said before the "pausa" for Pull Back .. this is not an easy trade.
All the world think about an increase of energetics price for the winter but based on technical point in this moment we cannot confirm that.
The pull back .. until this moment was really short.. without "energy" .. and arrived only to 0,38 of thirt wave.. this let me to think that probably the short momentum is not completed.
Before I wrote and now confirm that:
1) COT report say that non commercial are short (with increase)
2) Europe has completed the "stock" for this winter
3) Europe has created a big plan to reduce the electricity consumption
4) USA has a short possibilities for increase the natural gas export at least for the next one mounths
5) The petroil cost are decrease and could be more convenient that GAS
---
From TA we have still on going the big H&S and a little bit H&S in this last movement.. so all this with technical wave analysis suggest a short continuation ...
Stop Over the 7,2$
Trade safe.. always
Oct 26,22-NG-Nice Profits from yesterdays rallyMy Buy Order at 5 is in decent profits today after yesterdays bullish run. Price action sits around my next Buy Order at 5.5 today.
I will continue to monitor price action as there will be ups and down from now till Feb. I will close my Buy Orders at 700-800 point profits along the way to lock in my profits.
Stay safe.

Oct 25,22-NG-FINALLY price is going up :-)In looking at the chart, you can see how price dropped quite a bit outside the Linear Regression Indicator but price is on it's way back up.
Yesterday was the first day in a long time of positive gains, hopefully going to finish the week off in green territory.
As previously discussed, I put another Buy Order in at 5, which is now in profit so that's good. Just waiting for price to continue skyrocketing.
FYI - price will probably NOT skyrocket up to 10 or anything, but will very slowly make it's way up there over the winter. So this could be a 4 month grind, so get your Big Boy Pants on and strap in for a crazy ride - between the War, Recession, Sky high interest rates and Bankruptcies (more to come over the next 6-12 months) it's going to be a crazy 2023!!
Stay safe!

NATGAS Supply And Demand LONG AnalysisHigher Timeframe:
-Price inside HTF weekly demand
-Look for buys
Lower Timeframe:
-4hr timeframe overextended with 6x DBD in a row.
-Wait for aggressive downward trend line break + strong quality zone to be created
-looking to either buy the demand is price pulls back or use as my highertimeframe and then look for new lowertimeframe
confirmation.
NATGAS // officially in a short trend on the weeklyNATGAS closed below the starting point of the last impulse wave up, meaning the trend has turned on the weekly chart as well. This short trend is valid until the brown validity zone is taken back by the buyers.
Any move up is only a correction of the south impulse wave, and a break of this countertrend makes the price fall.
Of course, it can go on falling, but a countertrend may come soon.
Trade safe! ⚪️⚫️

Natural gas still under negative pressureNatural gas is still under negative pressure
The 100-week moving average crossed by closing last week with the highest trading pace since the August top at $10
The price is currently testing a price congestion area between $5 and $4.6
Momentum is negative in the long-term to the medium term
And expectations of the continuation of the downward wave to 3.96
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.
NatGas en routeBreak of $7.60 might have already triggered the bottom target around $5.30
Pay close attention to price action around the broken neckline:
1) Fails to surpass $7.60, a huge drop will be imminent
2) If it manages to hold $7.60 expect at least a retest of the right shoulders top around $9.20
Hold my beer pls

No financial advice, do your own research, don't be stupid
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
WTI oil - Deteriorating demand to weight on the higher oil priceSince our short-term price target of 80 USD was taken out a few weeks ago, we abstained from setting short and medium-term price targets because of very high volatility in the oil market. Despite that, we stuck to the long-term price target of 70 USD, to which we remain committed.
Our views are based mainly on fundamental factors concerning the deteriorating global demand for oil, with the OPEC slashing demand for 2023 and China maintaining its zero covid policy for longer.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI and Stochastic are bearish. MACD is neutral. DM+ and DM- strive to perform a bearish crossover. Overall, the daily time frame is neutral/slightly bearish.

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.

NATGAS // last breakout tested, turn may comeHi Everyone!✋🏽
We've seen the correction of the last weekly impulse wave on the daily. Price has tested the last north breakout (marked blue, as Daily S/R zone), then if the daily closes above the trigger zone (green), we may see the trend turn into the primary direction.
What do you think???
Trade safe! ⚪️⚫️

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.
NatGas: Athletic 👟💪🎾NatGas has been indulging in athletic activities – quite in accordance with its temperament. Since the end of wave ii in pink, NatGas has been exercising on the stairwalker, has been playing squash in the green trend channel and has been doing some aerobic. Next, it should proceed with trampolining on the blue zone between $5.554 and $4.684 to finish wave iii and iv in pink and then drop onto the pink mattress between $5.156 and $4.455 to complete wave v in pink, which also includes concluding the overarching downwards movement in the course of wave 2 in green. There is a 28% chance, though, that NastGas could skip the blue as well as the pink zone and lift itself directly above the resistance at $8.123.
Oct 9,22-NG Long Still HopingIn looking at the weekly chart, I also added the Linnear Regression Indicator to give me an idea of where price action is...as you can see, it is at the outside so unless price continues to drop, we should expect a price jump.
Maybe I was a little early in my prediction, although price action has touched higher than the 7 mark in the last 2 weeks - I am hoping it will actually CLOSE above 7 this week.
Time will tell...Happy Thanksgiving to all you Canadians!!
Stay safe all.
