Nymex gas futures for April settled at $2.171 per million British thermal units, down about 17.7 cents per day, and fell the contract for the month of May increased by 17.8 cents to 2.307 dollars.

Meanwhile, production has stabilized near 100 bcfd early this week – on par with recent highs and within striking distance of record levels around 102 bcfd.

After a long streak of bearish indicators this year, analysts are expecting a relatively sharp rally that should reverse last week’s brief but the notable blast of cold weather.

That is why we expect natural gas to decline during its upcoming trading, as long as the 2.748  resistance remains intact, to target the psychological support at 2.00.
