Natural Gas analysis for 15/11/2018:

The record-breaking volatility of energy resources continues. Yesterday, the WTI oil has been falling the most in several years and today the record is beating the natural gas rate. The raw material has recently increased sharply due to low stocks in recent years and record-cold November in the US, which will soon finish the period of rebuilding stocks before the heating season. The result is a real shot of raw material prices. Today, NatGas goes up a dozen or so percent and peaked at 4.90, the level recorded last time in 2014. In two months, the raw material went up by almost 70 percent!

Let's now take a look at the Natural Gas technical picture at the daily time frame. The local high was made at the level of $4,896 and it does'not look it is the end of the advance. The nearest technical support is seen at the level of $4,532 and this level is an important support from a long-term point of view. Any clear and sustained violation of this level would mean a false breakout, so it is worth to keep an eye on the price behavior at this level. The momentum remains strong and positive, but the market conditions are becoming overbought.
