Prices are stuck inside a range of 1152-1194, but favoured view of a sustainable direction only on the break out of the range either side. We favour more downside moves than the upside, once it cleared the support.

CRUDEmcxMAR
Technical Levels:
R3 - 4900
R2 - 4710/70/80
R1 - 4535/4600
Pivot - 4492
S1 - 4440/4412
S2 - 4370/4300
S3 - 4272

Technical Commentary:
Initial moves are expected to continue the prevailing weak bias 4440/4410, but inability to break below 4400 would considerably weaken the momentum and call for a corrective pullback later. However a direct fall below 4400 may take prices towards 4300/220 in near terms. Unexpected rise above 4532 may negate the view.

Trends:
Intraday-> Down
Near Term-> Consolidate

NAT. GASmcxMAR
Technical Levels:
R3 - 190
R2 - 184/186
R1 - 181
Pivot - 179
S1 - 176/173
S2 - 171
S3 - 168/164

Technical Commentary:
While 176 hold, prices have more rooms for further upside towards 184/187 or more. It would be required to break below 171 to weak the momentum.

Trends:
Intraday-> Up
Near Term-> Down
