Nat Gas futures hovering below $3.50 level :: <div class="field field-name-field-images field-type-entityreference field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p>Currently Nat Gas futures are struggling to stay above the key technical breakout level of $3.50/mmbtu. As of this writing the futures price is now marginally below the $3.50 level and acting much as it did during the breakout in the second half of January. The way the market is trading and even if we do get a settlement above the $3.50/mmbtu level I am moving my view back to neutral until the market sorts out which way it truly wants to head. This week's inventory repot will be bullish but we are simply running out of winter and quickly approaching the lower demand shoulder season.</p></div></div></div>
