Highlights

ET/USD trades below short-term moving averages and below long-term resistance, reinforcing a bearish bias on the daily chart.
Momentum indicators present mixed signals, with intraday bullishness but neutral major oscillators and a slight edge to buyers.
Price is projected to fluctuate between $19.02 and $19.78 over the next 2 to 3 days, with a downward move more likely unless $19.75 is exceeded.

Momentum mixed as bullish signals clash with neutral oscillators

ET is currently below its MA-20 at $19.46 but holding above the MA-50 at $19.35; the daily chart shows continued resistance under the MA-200 at $19.75. Initial support appears at the Ichimoku Kijun level of $19.29. On the indicator front, MACD and ADX are bullish on the intraday timeframe, with Bull/Bear Power slightly positive at 0.07. However, both RSI and CCI remain neutral, and Stoch RSI is oversold, suggesting near-term selling exhaustion. The Awesome Oscillator is neutral, indicating no clear momentum bias.

Downside risk elevated as volatility range expected to hold

Over the next few sessions, ET is likely to trade within a volatility band spanning $19.02 to $19.78. The baseline scenario calls for sideways fluctuation in this corridor. A sustained break above $19.75 could open more upside room, while a move through $19.29 would increase the risk of losses toward the lower end of the projected range. The probability of an upward breakout is estimated at 30%, placing a higher likelihood on consolidative or downward price action in the near term.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, believes Energy Transfer continues to show resilience even with its modest pullback. The analyst notes support remains firm on the medium-term, with mixed technical signals but some early signs of selling exhaustion. While a breakout above $19.75 would strengthen the bullish case, current market structure still favors consolidation or a contained downside. He maintains a constructive outlook on the broader trend. "Momentum could pick up soon if $19.29 holds, so I am watching this level for potential upward movement."

Earlier, analysts noted ongoing consolidation trends in the energy sector, highlighted by proposed mergers aimed at strengthening operational and financial positions among key players. Against this backdrop, Energy Transfer's current technical setup suggests that monitoring the $19.75 resistance level is critical for assessing potential upside beyond the present consolidative phase.
