WTI crude oil has held major support at $77.3 on a closing basis for the past couple of days. Odds still lean in favor of closing below $77.3, which will open the way for $76.8 and likely $76.2 in the coming days.
Gold is due for a correction and has formed a potential double top around $2172. However, there are no confirmed bearish patterns or signals that call for a reversal. Near-term odds remain bullish and a test of $2190 is expected within the next day or so.
Natural gas is struggling to close above a key target at $1.96. The outlook remains bullish though and closing above $1.96 will open the way for another test of $2.00 and higher.
Nevertheless, today’s pullback warns that a test of $1.90 and possibly $1.85 might take place before the move up extends.

Today’s rally has positioned WTI crude oil to challenge $79.2 and possibly $79.7 tomorrow. Settling above $79.7 will open the way for $80.7 and higher in the coming days.
The late pullback from $78.47 warns that a test of $77.0 might take place first. This level is expected to hold. Key near-term support at $75.8.
Today’s rally has positioned WTI crude oil to challenge $69.9 tomorrow. This should be strong resistance, but a close above $69.9 will call for a test of key resistance and a bullish decision point at $70.8.
Natural gas is poised to challenge a major objective at $4.24. This is a potential stalling point, but once met, an eventual close above $4.24 is anticipated. Such a move will open the way for a rise toward $4.51 during the subsequent weeks.
WTI’s daily hammer suggest the move down will likely prove to be another short-lived correction. Closing above $72.5 will complete the pattern and call for a test of the hammer’s $73.9 confirmation point.
Gold settled above the 200-day moving average and is now poised to reach at least $1842 and possibly $1855 during the next few days. Support at $1819 is expected to hold and $1805 is key support for the near-term outlook.
Natural gas is poised to decline to at least $3.91 and lower during the next few days. The barrier to a more bearish outlook is $3.82. Resistance at $4.04 is expected to hold and $4.08 is key resistance.
