XNGUSD, Accumulation to Expansion? Weekly Long Into Winter RiskIโve initiated a long on Natural Gas from weekly structure. Price has rotated inside this area since โ23 and is now reacting at a confluence of trendline support + prior demand. The plan is to hold into Q4, when seasonality (heating demand + potential hurricane/LNG disruptions) often provides upside tailwinds. Risk is defined on the weekly chart; Iโll manage around swings and let the position work.
Technicals (Weekly)
โข Range base reclaimed: Price is bouncing from the same 2023โ2024 accumulation zone (roughly 2.5โ3.0).
โข Multi-touch trendline support: Current candle is reacting at the rising base trendline; wicks show responsive buying.
โข Structure targets: First objective is a move back into mid-range supply; extension aims toward the upper band shown on the chart.
Fundamentals Supporting Long Bias
โข Seasonality: Q4 typically brings rising Heating Degree Days across the Northern Hemisphere; winter risk premia often get priced ahead of the draw season.
โข LNG pull: Ongoing ramp in global LNG demand + incremental U.S. export capacity tends to tighten the domestic balance on cold forecasts or unplanned outages elsewhere.
โข Supply discipline: Gas rig counts have lagged after the 2024 price slump; that slower supply response can tighten later-year balances if weather cooperates.
โข Weather & Gulf risk: Peak hurricane season can interrupt Gulf production and processing, periodically supporting price.
โข Europe draw season: As EU storage transitions from injection to draws, import needs rise, keeping a bid under seaborne gas.
Trade Plan:
โข Entry: From weekly support (see chart).
โข Management: Trail below fresh higher lows on the daily; take partials at fib/structure levels; let a runner target the upper band if momentum broadens.
What Breaks the Thesis
โข A persistently warm Q4, outsized storage overhang into winter, major LNG outages/delays, or a renewed surge in production that swamps demand.
Note: Please remember to adjust this trade idea according to your individual trading conditions, including position size, broker-specific price variations, and any relevant external factors. Every traderโs situation is unique, so itโs crucial to tailor your approach to your own risk tolerance and market environment.

U.S. Natural Gas Face Supply Pressures Amid Global ShiftsU.S. Natural Gas Face Supply Pressures Amid Global Shifts
U.S. natural gas futures climbed above $3 per MMBtu in early September, rebounding from a nine-month low of $2.73 on August 20 as expectations of lower domestic supply gained traction.
Fresh data revealed that Russian LNG exports fell over 6% year-over-year through August, boosting the U.S. share in global LNG trade as Europe and Asia sought alternative sources. This shift has intensified bidding competition for limited U.S. gas supplies, adding upward price pressure.
Storage levels remain tight, with EIA data showing a 3.4% annual decline. On the demand side, ExxonMobil projects global natural gas consumption to increase over 20% in the next 25 years, driven by the transition away from coal.
However, after the Labor Day weekend, U.S. futures slipped 3.5% to $2.893/MMBtu, retreating from Fridayโs $3 test. Analysts note that the market is entering the low-demand shoulder season, but a sustained dip in supply could revive bullish momentum, potentially pushing prices above $3.00 later this month.
Natural Gas Surging into Key Moving AverageNatural gas has tagged near term resistance.
We have trimmed and locked in profits on many of the equity trades and the boil trade that we were long.
The entire commodity complex minus oil has been very strong.
Inventory report is tomorrow at 10:30am.
Let see if Nat gas can continue its bullish ascent.
Dont forget to trim profits along the way.
Natural Gas: Ambiguous Wave 4, Key Scenarios for Next WeekNatural Gas could have already completed its 4th wave, or it might extend further. The rally from the low of wave 3 is particularly challenging to count. I spent an hour on it but still couldn't find a clear and reliable wave interpretation.
However, given the low probability of correctly counting any single wave and the highly subjective and variable nature of this method, it's not the most critical thing.
What is important is to focus on the confluence of patterns and wave counts across different timeframes, avoid going against the momentum indicators, and always factor in key reversal points.
It's based on these reversal points that I've built out my approximate scenarios for the start of next week.

NATURAL GAS: Stunning breakout!Natural Gas has had a wonderful move off the lows.
Breaking out of a falling wedge pattern on inventories.
Inventory report supports higher price. 27B exp build vs 18B actual.
If you have been following our analysis you would have ought to have know to start accumulating into the key weekly gap fill zone.
We have been pounding the table on resource stocks showing relative strength compared to the underlying commodity.
Our members have received several alerts via: AMEX:BOIL , NYSE:EQT NYSE:AR NYSE:RRC and others. We have netted some wonderful profits and it looks like Nat Gas should climb higher after some near term consolidation.
I would like to see Nat gas retest the major volume shelf (POC). That level should be monitored closely.
Natural Gas ( 30 Min EMA Cross over)I have taken this trade on a 30-minute chart frame. And used stop loss on the 4-hour chart. Because I don't want my trade to close because stop loss was too close.
The key factors that made me to take this trade.
1. The natural gas is bearish on longer daily and weekly trend.
2. i think the small crossover on 30 minute on the down side will help the cause.
3. Only worry here is that how long it pull backs into bullish direction, before it resumes its bearish bias. For that purpose, I have set up the stop loss on 2 hour time frame and above recent highs.
Should know the outcome of this trade next week.
nGas + 15%The fundamental inventory deficit, confirmed by the EIA report (+13 Bcf), is a strong bullish factor.
The COT report also indicates a bullish sentiment among speculators.
Managed Money net = โ36,687 - the background is short. However, shorts have been reduced by โ17,614, and the net short has decreased by +14,046 WoW, which is a clear sign of short covering. At the same time, longs have decreased slightly (โ3,568).
If the price continues to trade near the $2.65 support, this creates a dissonance between powerful fundamental signals and local market behavior. The test of the key support of $2.65 is a good entry point for a long position.
The price is in the descending channel (from July 23). The lower boundary of the channel coincides with the key support of $2.65. The $2.65 - $2.70 zone is a strong zone of liquidity and potential stops.
Entry - Breakout of 2.65 and consolidation above $2.70 or rebound from $2.65 with confirmation. Looking for a false breakout or a confident retest.
News to watch:
1. EIA (28 Aug 14:30 UTC) - Deviation from 5-year and South Central contribution. Repeats of weak injection will boost the chance of a squeeze to 2.88 and 3.00
2. CPC 6โ10/8โ14 - Whether the warm anomaly will continue (CDD support).
3. LNG feedgas - A return to โฅ16.5โ17 Bcf/d will return fundamental support.
4. COT (29 Aug ~19:30 UTC) - reduction of net "short" Managed Money = fuel for long squeeze.
Conclusion: the background remains "bearish", but the risk of long squeeze is increased - any bullish event (weak injection of EIA, growth of feedgas, warm weather) can sharply accelerate the upward movement.
U.S. Natural Gas Hits 10-Month Low on Cool Weather OutlookU.S. Natural Gas Hits 10-Month Low on Cool Weather Outlook
U.S. natural gas futures slipped to $2.70/MMBtu, the lowest since November 2024, as cooler weather and weaker late-summer demand eased storage concerns. September NG1! fell 0.1%.
Analysts say strong power demand and limited injections expected earlier wonโt materialize. Forecasts show below-normal temperatures for the next two weeks, while LNG exports rose to 15.9 bcfd in August. Lower-48 gas output hit 108.5 bcfd, near record highs.
Despite a smaller-than-expected storage build last week (+13 bcf), ample supply and higher production keep pressure on prices. U.S. LNG exports are projected to grow 10% annually through 2030, even as oil output plateaus.
European gas futures also slipped 1% to โฌ33.5/MWh as Norwayโs maintenance impact eased and storage builds continue ahead of winter.
2 Month Descending ChannelSeptember natural gas futures plunged to a nine-month low on August 22, dropping 4.5% amid near-record output, ample storage, and cooler weather reducing demand. Despite a rebound in LNG exports, prices have fallen for five straight weeks, down 24% overall.
Record U.S. production in August averages 108.4 bcfd, while storage remains 6% above normal. Demand, including exports, is expected to ease in coming weeks, with LNG feedgas rising to 16.2 bcfd as plants recover from outages. Hurricane activity in the Atlantic poses no immediate threat to U.S. supply. Analysts expect U.S. LNG exports to grow about 10% annually through 2030.

LNG in Week 36: Wind Generation Exacerbates Gas Storage SurplusCurrent prices vs. price spread 10 days before expiration by month since 2010
The NGV25 near contract is trading around the median figure but showing high volatility. The next contract, NGX25, as well as the winter 2026 contracts, show moderate contango, but their prices remain within the interquantile range.โ
Current forward curve vs. 2020-2025
The forward curve shape remains stable and is approaching the configuration of the curves for the same calendar day in 2023 and 2024. This is particularly evident for contracts with delivery dates three years or more in the future. The differences in the short dated contracts are still significant.โ
Current inventory and forecast for next week compared to 2019-2024
For week 35 (Aug. 25-31), storage inventories are forecast to increase by +68 BCF. Fill rates are consistently above the median for the past five years. Injection rates remain positive due to high production and low consumption, mitigating shortage risks ahead of the withdrawal season.โ
Weekly HDD+CDD total from current NOAA data and forecast for the next two weeks comparing 1994-2024
In the continent as a whole, in the 36th week of this year, the weather in terms of HDD+CDD is significantly below the average for the last 30 years of observations. In the next week, week 37, HDD+CDD is also forecast to be well below average, leading to lower demand for AC power and increasing downward pressure on prices.
Explanation of the chart: candles represent quantiles for 30 years from 1994 to 2024. Red dots 2024, green 2025, blue prediction 2025 โ
Weekly HDD+CDD total from current NOAA data and forecast for the next two weeks compared to 1994-2024 by region
The projections for the major regions are consistent with the general trend: HDD+CDD rates are below the average of the last 30 years of observations.โ
Weekly cumulative supply/demand differentials compared to 2014-2024
The supply-demand balance has narrowed below the decade average. Production has been generally declining and is projected to keep declining. Imports from Canada, exports to Mexico, and LNG supply remain stable, however. Electricity demand has declined due to seasonal factors and warmer weather, while industrial sector demand remains at average levels.
Meanwhile, wind generation increased for this period between 2024 and 2025 by a factor of 4, according to MISO grid operator, from 58,487 Mwh in 2024 to 239,952 Mwh in 2025.
According to PJM grid operator the metric rose by a factor of 2 from 3,312 Mwh in 2024 to 70,070 Mwh in 2025, respectively. This compensated some of the gas consumed, thereby exacerbating the gas storage surplus.
So we are now heading for a 150 unit surplus relative to the 5 year median. Importantly, without lowering the production, new risks are emerging pointing to entering the zone of new considerable gas storage excess capacities, thus putting additional downward price pressure.
Seasonally, September is considered one of the quietest months, when air conditioning is not so active and heating is not yet on. Thus, before the start of the pumping season storages accumulate enough surplus volumes. With the data we have now, there is every reason to expect the start of the season to be 200+ surplus, relative to the average.
