NG price perhaps, partly explained by crude blowoff and fuel switching -- also, perhaps -- partly in that earlier demand destruction (for NG) included some delayed production -- not just shifted production ...now time is up? --

does that seem reasonable??

I expect the NG spike to subside with the final short squeeze on oil -- let's see if it works that way -- or according to Murphy's law we get a simply awful winter season.

<Someone also posted one of your posts on our site about the Dollar COTs indicating a drop to come. I fully expect a lower dollar down the road but right now, my COT data shows that the ONLY two currencies that the Commercial traders have a long on is the Yen and US Dollar.>

Not sure what others are posting as my opinion, but what I posted recently, agrees with your assessment:

Specs look too short the USD, major exception, the Yen.

I thought a brief USD rally might have emerged out of the jobs report in fact.

<Storage levels are at high levels historically>

Largely attributable to one of cooler summers on record. The market recognizes a structural problem with NG supply here, and may not wish to bet on one of the warmest winters on record to releave it at this point.
