Natural Gas Price Analysis: XNG/USD prods resistance-turned-support around $2.66

• Natural Gas Price remains pressured after reversing from 11-week high.
• Bearish MACD signals, RSI’s retreat from overbought territory adds strength to downside bias about XNG/USD.
• Weekly support line, 200-SMA holds the key to further downside of the Natural Gas Price.

Natural Gas Price (XNG/USD) remains on the back foot around $2.68 as bears attack a short-term key support line, previous resistance, heading into Monday’s European session.

In doing so, the XNG/USD also justifies the bearish MACD signals and the RSI (14) line’s retreat from the overbought region.

As a result, the energy instrument is likely to break the immediate support line of around $2.66.

However, a one-month-old horizontal support zone, surrounding $2.57-58, appears a tough nut to crack for the Natural Gas bears to retake control.

Even so, the 200-SMA level of near $2.37 may act as the last defense of the XNG/USD buyers, a break of which could direct the commodity towards the monthly low of around $2.14.

On the flip side, the Natural Gas price recovery needs validation from the $2.80 ahead of challenging the March month swing high of near $3.08.

In a case where the XNG/USD remains firmer past $3.08, the yearly high of around $4.17 and then the $5.0 psychological magnet will be in the spotlight.

Overall, Natural Gas price is likely to witness a pullback but the trend remains bullish unless the quote drops below $2.57.
