4/16/2015 Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report (1030 EDT)
Forecast: 52B
Actual: 63B
SPIKE / REVERSE
Started @ 2.606
1st Peak @ 2.545 – 1030:00 (1 min)
61 ticks

Reversal to 2.564 – 1034 (4 min)
19 ticks

Pullback to 2.547 – 1039 (9 min)
17 ticks

Reversal to 2.593 – 1103 (33 min)
46 ticks

Continued Reversal to 2.690 – 1239 (129 min)
143 ticks

Notes: We saw a larger gain on the reserve compared to the forecast which caused a healthy short move that fell to reach the S1 Mid Pivot, and extend the LOD. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your short order would have filled around 2.555 with abnormally high 41 ticks of slippage. Then you would have seen it hover just below the fill point for about 15 sec to allow up to 5 ticks to be captured. Then it reversed 19 ticks in 3 min before pulling back 17 ticks in 5 min. After that it reversed 46 ticks in 33 min to the 200 SMA, and another 97 ticks in the next 100 min after crossing the R2 Mid Pivot.

Notes: We saw a larger gain on the reserve compared to the forecast which caused a moderate short move that fell to cross the S2 Pivot, and extend the LOD. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your short order would have filled around 2.530 with 11 ticks of slippage. Then you would have seen it chop initially then settle to hover near the low on the S2 Pivot. Look to exit there with about 8 ticks. After that it reversed 50 ticks in 11 min after crossing the 200 SMA / S1 Pivot. Then it pulled back 38 ticks in 28 min before reversing 17 ticks in 11 min. Then it pulled back 24 ticks in 47 min.

Final Peak @ 2.732 – 1107 (37 min)
173 ticks

Reversal to 2.707 – 1114 (44 min)
25 ticks

Notes: We saw a slightly larger gain on the reserve compared to the forecast which caused a large long move that rose to cross all 3 major SMAs near the origin, the R2 Pivot and extend the HOD. It spiked 72 ticks immediately to the R1 Pivot, then climbed another 61 ticks in the next 46 sec. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your long order would have filled around 2.610 with 41 ticks of slippage. Then you would have seen it continue to step higher slowly until peaking late in the bar. This would have allowed up to 80 ticks to be captured. Then it reversed for 34 ticks in 2 min before climbing for a 2nd peak of 21 more ticks in 2 min. After that it reversed 36 ticks in 3 min before climbing for a final peak of 19 more ticks in 29 min. Then it reversed 25 ticks in 7 min.

Notes: We saw a near matching gain on the reserve compared to the forecast which caused a moderate short move that fell to reach the S1 Pivot, and extend the LOD. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your short order would have filled around 2.765 with 13 ticks of slippage. Then you would have seen it fall and chop above the S1 Pivot. Look to exit there with about 18 ticks. After that it reversed 37 ticks in 1 min to nearly reach the PP Pivot before pulling back 35 ticks for a near double bottom in 9 min. Then it reversed 21 ticks in 3 min to the S1 Mid Pivot before pulling back 23 ticks to the LOD in 7 min. After that it trended lower for the next few hours.

Notes: We saw a near matching gain on the reserve compared to the forecast which caused a large long move that rose 73 ticks immediately to cross the HOD and R1 Mid Pivot. Then it achieved another 54 ticks in the next min to eclipse the R2 Mid Pivot. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your long order would have filled around 2.943 with about 40 ticks of slippage. Then you would have seen it slowly climb until it encountered resistance on the R2 Mid Pivot and chopped. Look to exit there with about 60+ ticks. After that it reversed 44 ticks in 17 min to the R1 Pivot / 20 SMA before pulling back 35 ticks in 33 min to the R2 Mid Pivot.

Then it surrendered about 25 ticks and hovered for 14 sec. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your long order would have filled around 3.005 with about 33 ticks of slippage. Then you would have seen it peak and back off to hover to allow 8-15 ticks to be captured. Then it reversed a total of 61 ticks to the R1 Mid Pivot in 2 min before pulling back 18 ticks in 1 min. After that it reversed 30 ticks in 2 min to the 20 SMA before pulling back 54 ticks in 32 min after crossing the R1 Pivot.

Then it hovered around the pivot for about 10 sec before backing off long. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your short order would have filled around 2.759 with about 31 ticks of slippage. Then you would have seen it chop around the S3 Mid Pivot to allow about 35 ticks to be captured. After that it reversed 37 ticks in 2 min before pulling back 35 ticks in 14 min.

Notes: We saw a greater gain on the reserve compared to the forecast which caused a healthy short move that fell 61 ticks immediately to cross the S2 Pivot. Then it retraced about 25 ticks and chopped sideways. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your short order would have filled around 2.585 with about 22 ticks of slippage. Then you would have seen it chop around your fill point to 12 ticks of profit. Look to exit with a profit target above the S2 Pivot for about 15-20 ticks. After that it reversed 47 ticks in 5 min to the S1 Pivot before pulling back 20 ticks in 3 min to the S2 Mid Pivot. Then it reversed 85 ticks in 12 min to the PP Pivot before pulling back 41 ticks in 4 min to the S1 Mid Pivot / 200 SMA.

Reversal to 2.818 – 1222 (112 min)
66 ticks

Notes: We saw a slightly lesser gain on the reserve compared to the forecast which caused a whipsaw initially that spanned 35 ticks and continued to chop for the first min between the HOD / R1 Mid Pivot and PP Pivot. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, your order may have errored out on the setup as the :59 sec bar was volatile. Otherwise it is hard to say where the fill would have been but it is a certainty you would have been stopped for about 20 -25 ticks. It reversed 51 ticks in the next min to the S1 Mid Pivot before pulling back 20 ticks in 1 min to the PP Pivot. Then it reversed 38 ticks in 8 min to the S1 Pivot as it extended the LOD before pulling back 34 ticks in 33 min to the 200 SMA. Finally it reversed 66 ticks in 71 min to the S2 Mid Pivot.

Notes: We saw a slightly lesser gain on the reserve compared to the forecast which caused a whipsaw initially that spanned 49 ticks from the PP Pivot on the upper end to the 200 SMA on the lower end in 1 sec. Then it fell 23 ticks from the origin in 25 sec. With JOBB and a 10 tick bracket, you would have filled long and then been stopped out for about 22 ticks with slippage. After the reversal it pulled back 27 ticks in 4 min to the 50 SMA / S1 Mid Pivot before reversing 21 ticks in 6 min. Then it pulled back 51 ticks in 12 min to nearly reach the PP Pivot before reversing 45 ticks in 42 min. After that it traded sideways for almost an hour then fell.
