Takeaway
The presenter is waiting for confirmation before entering new commodity trades. For Natural Gas, a sustained break above the $3.00 psychological level is required to initiate new longs. For Crude Oil, the market is range-bound, and a breakout is needed to determine the next direction, with a potential short-term target of $95 on a topside break.
What the presenter said
- Natural Gas (NYMEX) is in an uptrend but currently lacks a valid entry condition for a long trade. (18:43)
- A break above the $3.00 psychological level is required for further bullish continuation in Natural Gas. (20:11)
- The presenter expects Gold (XAUUSD) to remain bullish as long as it stays above 4282.82; a break below this "termination zone" could lead to a crash. (24:40)
- Silver (XAGUSD) could retest the 62.85-64.18 support level before bouncing. A break below this zone would trigger a significant sell-off. (25:57)
- Crude Oil (CL1!) is in a sideways range, and a breakout is needed to confirm the next directional move. (26:30)
- If Crude Oil remains above current levels, the presenter sees a potential short-term move up to $95. (27:25)
