</ul>
<h3><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">US natural gas prices have been at the receiving end of sustained bullish momentum for some time now.</span></h3>
<p><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">The commodity jumped last Friday as cold weather across the United States boosted the demand outlook for heating. </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">After a final push last week, a fresh resistance level was reached but not breached. At the resistance level a correction wave started, and this might have enough momentum to reach a previous weekly support level. If the level is reached and holds, a long opportunity might ensue. </span></p>

<h3><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">A look at the 4-hour time frame will produce more understanding.</span></h3>
<p><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">The 4-hour chart is busy with a down trend as the daily trend correction wave plays out. <strong>The 4-hour 100 Exponential Moving Average (EMA)</strong> as well as the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) are still in bullish mode and the 100 EMA confirms the possible support level around <strong>2.874</strong> as indicated by the weekly support level. </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">If the price reaches the <strong>2.874 level </strong>then a long opportunity becomes possible.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">Attaching a modified Fibonacci tool to the trigger level at 2.987 and dragging it to the below daily support level at 2.729, three possible </span><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">targets can be established:</span></p>
<ul>
<li>
<h3><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">The first target is possible at 3.146 (Target 1). </span></h3>
</li>
<li>
<h3><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">The second price target is likely at 3.374 (Target 2).</span></h3>
</li>
<li>
<h3><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">The third and last price target is feasible at 3.554 (Target 4) if buyers are able to press through the next weekly resistance level at 3.460. </span></h3>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US">If the price at <strong>2.729 is broken</strong>, this scenario is no longer applicable. </span></p>
