Natural Gas Price Fundamental Daily Forecast – Rally Trying to Gain Traction Over $2.661
FX Empire reported: Natural gas prices are moving higher early Tuesday after taking out the high of its six-day range earlier in the session. The price action suggests we could be witnessing a relief rally, mostly due to oversold conditions after the recent steep sell-off. There have been no major chances to the weather forecast, or Thursday’s storage report estimates so we have to conclude that hedge fund profit taking is likely fueling a short-covering rally early in the session. NatGasWeather.com did update its weather forecast for the February 20 to 25 period. It says, “High pressure will strengthen over the southern and eastern U.S. this week with very warm February temperatures that will reach the 60s and 80s. The western and central U.S. will see weather systems with cold and snow. Modest cooling will at times also push into the Midwest/Western Great Lakes. This coming weekend, the warm ridge will continue to dominate the South and East, while still cold and unsettled over the West into the central U.S. Demand over the next week will be moderate to low.” For more on this story visit fxempire.com or click http://bit.ly/2EF97z8

The deal adds an “economic dimension to what until now has been a security-focused relationship between former regional rivals,” according to Bloomberg.
