The natural gas market continues to receive support from seasonal increases in U.S. power demand driven by hotter weather forecasts and strong LNG export activity. These factors have helped prices recover from the recent correction and regain part of the previous losses.
However, the upside potential remains limited. High production levels across North America and comfortable storage inventories continue to weigh on sentiment. Despite improving short-term demand expectations, market participants still lack sufficient confidence to price in a sustainable bullish trend.
Geopolitics remains a risk factor
Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to maintain a degree of risk premium in energy markets, although the impact of recent developments has gradually faded. Following the initial reaction, investors have shifted their focus back to underlying supply and demand fundamentals.
At the same time, any disruption to energy flows or renewed geopolitical escalation could quickly bring volatility back to the sector. For now, however, the market appears to view the situation as manageable, limiting speculative buying interest.
Technical outlook: resistance continues to hold
Following a strong rebound from the 2.88–2.90 area, natural gas prices advanced toward the 3.04–3.10 zone and moved back above short-term moving averages. Nevertheless, the recovery has encountered significant resistance, preventing a stronger upside extension.
The 3.07–3.10 region remains a key barrier for buyers. Several attempts to establish a foothold above this range have failed to gain traction, highlighting the continued presence of sellers. As a result, there is an increasing probability that resistance will continue to cap bullish momentum in the near term.
Outlook: correction risks remain elevated
As long as prices remain below 3.07–3.10, the base-case scenario favors a renewed pullback toward initial support at 3.00–3.02. A break below this area could intensify selling pressure and open the way toward 2.96–2.98, where a more significant demand zone is located.
For a sustainable bullish scenario to return, buyers need to secure a decisive break and close above 3.10. Until such confirmation emerges, the recent advance should be viewed as a recovery within a broader trading range, while the risk of a retest of support levels — as previously highlighted in Natural gas extends recovery as rally regains momentum — remains elevated.
