Natural Gas Consolidates Monday's Rally

Natural gas closed lower on Tuesday as it consolidated some of Monday's rally. The low range close sets the stage for a steady to lower opening on Wednesday.

Stochastics and the RSI remain bullish signaling that sideways to higher prices are possible near term.

If July extends Monday's rally, May's high crossing at 4.690 is the next upside target. Closes below the 10 day moving average crossing at 3.869 would confirm that a short term top has been posted.

First resistance is today's high crossing at 4.387
Second resistance is May's high crossing at 4.690

First support is the 10 day moving average crossing at 3.869
Second support is last Thursday's low crossing at 3.550
