Natural gas made an attempt to settle above the resistance at $3.35 – $3.40 but lost momentum and pulled back.

WTI oil pulled back as traders reacted to U.S. GDP Growth Rate report, which indicated that the U.S. economy contracted in the first quarter. The EIA report, which showed that crude inventories declined by -2.7 million barrels from the previous week, did not provide support to oil markets.

A successful test of the support at $57.50 – $58.00 will push WTI oil towards the next support level at $53.50 – $54.00.

A move below the $61.00 level will open the way to the test of the support at $58.00 – $58.50.
