Commodity Corner
Crude Oil closed at 5,648. Price remains range-bound, trading between 5,644–5,700, showing no clear breakout. A move above 5,700 or below 5,644 is required for decisive momentum. Price is hovering just above the lower support zone, forming a potential base. However, a breakdown could extend weakness toward 5,600 and 5,550 levels, while a breakout above trendline resistance could open the door for bullish targets.
Gold closed at 98,044. Price has broken below the rising channel support, indicating potential weakness in momentum. It is currently testing the horizontal support zone near 98,390–98,500. A breakdown below 98,390 may open the door to further downside levels. On the upside, the immediate resistance lies around 98,851–98,872. A sustained move above this zone could reinstate bullish sentiment and resume the previous uptrend. A breakout or breakdown from this critical zone will likely dictate the next short-term move.
Natural Gas Futures (MCX) closed at 267. Price remains in a strong downtrend, breaking multiple support levels and forming lower highs. It is now testing the critical support zone near 266.5, which, if broken, may accelerate bearish pressure. Resistance lies at 315.4, with the immediate hurdle near 280–285 levels. A rebound from current support could trigger a short-covering bounce, but overall sentiment remains weak unless a sustained break above resistance occurs.
