Commodity Corner
Crude Oil futures are trading near 5,290, showing early signs of bullish recovery after defending the support zone around 5,155. Price is currently testing the 5,303 horizontal resistance as well as the major descending trendline that has controlled the downtrend since October. A decisive breakout above both of these levels would confirm a short-term trend reversal. If the breakout sustains, the next supply levels lie at 5,433 followed by 5,602, with extended upside potential toward 5,890. On the downside, as long as 5,155 holds, buyers remain in control. A breakdown below this zone would invalidate the bullish structure, opening room for a deeper fall back toward 5,010, which is the major swing support.
In the last session, Gold closed at 126,033. Gold futures are trading near 125,500, currently consolidating just below the falling channel resistance. The broader structure shows a corrective downtrend, but price has reclaimed the key horizontal support at 124,407, turning it into a short-term base. A major supply zone remains active between 126,800–127,400, where sellers previously pushed the market down. Price is now hovering just under this zone, indicating indecision and potential reversal pressure. A convincing breakout above the channel resistance and the supply zone is required to shift momentum firmly to the upside. Failure to break this area may trigger a retest of 124,407. A breakdown below this level would expose the next support at 120,623.
Natural Gas futures are trading near 413, moving inside a clear rising channel and now approaching the upper trendline resistance. Price action shows repeated rejections from this upper boundary, indicating seller presence at higher levels. As long as the structure remains within the channel, dips toward the 400–392 zone are likely to attract buyers. A decisive breakout above the rising channel resistance near 418–422 will signal a continuation of the broader uptrend toward fresh highs. Conversely, a breakdown below the channel support around 398–392 will weaken the bullish structure, opening a possible corrective leg toward 380.
