Friday, January 24th<\/sup> saw the front-month NYMEX Natural Gas Futures Contract open at $3.835, down $0.110 compared to Thursday\u2019s closing price of $3.945. Following a quiet morning, trading sideways near $3.840 and marking the intraday low of $3.808 at 10:00AM, bulls then entered the market to drive the contract higher. Profit-taking then overpowered strong production and mild forecasts as the contract crossed midday at $3.867 and rallied to the intraday high of $4.050 at 2:00PM. February closed higher on Friday at $4.027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The EIA Natural Gas Storage Report published last Thursday showed a 223 BCF withdrawal from storage for the week ended January 17 \u2013 in line with the market estimate of a 245 BCF withdrawal. Total working gas in storage was reported as 2,892 BCF; 1.9% below this time last year and 0.7% above the five-year average.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of 7:10AM this morning in Globex, WTI Crude was down $0.490; Natural Gas was down $0.260; Heating Oil was up $0.064; and Gasoline was up $0.006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
