← all asset outlooks · the current read + the strongest mapped scenarios for Natural gas, from the 10,580-scenario library.
Near-term: Leans HIGHER conviction 56% · 539 up vs 106 down scenarios
Natural gas leans higher near-term — high conviction. Of the 645 mapped scenarios that move Natural gas, 539 push it up and 106 push it down, and weighting each by its probability, size and how soon it bites, the book skews higher. The lead driver pushing Natural gas higher is LNG export terminal bombed (event odds not yet verified; ~8.0% estimated impact on Natural gas if it occurs). Regime backdrop: The week the hike came back.
What flips the up-lean: Henry Hub negative again (event odds not yet verified).
Probabilistic, scenario-weighted read from the library + the current regime. A lean is a tilt in the odds, not a promise. Informational, not investment advice.

7-day readClose call52.9% lowerForecast swing band: -7.8% to +9.3%
15-day readClose call50.9% lowerForecast swing band: -10.1% to +12.2%
30-day readClose call50.6% higherForecast swing band: -14.0% to +16.8%

Natural gas is a close call over the next 7 days: 52.9% chance of a lower close means the evidence is only slightly tilted, not high-conviction.

The forecast swing band is -7.8% to +9.3% over 7 days. This is the model's comparable-history zone, not a price target. The band is fairly balanced, so the read is more about direction than payoff skew.

The history anchor uses 1,008 comparable 7-day windows; the base rate was 45.9% higher before today’s factors were applied. Status: live tracking started; not enough resolved calls yet.

Today’s tilt came mainly from the scenario graph. Each forecast is saved and later scored, so this number will earn calibration over time instead of pretending certainty today.
