During the Asian trading session, the price of oil managed to maintain around the $70.00 level. At the beginning of the European session, there was instability on the oil chart, and the price sbeatarted to fall. It stopped at the $66.90 level and pulled back above the $67.00 level.
For now, the price manages to stay above that level, and we need a positive consolidation to trigger a new bullish option. We need a negative consolidation and a new drop below the $67.00 level for a bearish option. After that, a space would open, and the price could fall toward the $66.00 level.
During the Asian trading session, the price of natural gas was maintained above the 2.15 level. The price took advantage of that and increased to $2.20. For now, we have resistance at that level, but if the current consolidation continues, we could see a break above and continued price growth.
Potential higher targets are the $2.25 and $2.30 levels. For a bearish option, we need a negative consolidation and a drop to $2.15 from this morning’s support. A price break below would lead to the formation of a new lower low, and that would mean a further retreat of the gas price. Potential lower targets are the $2.10 and $2.00 levels.
