Natural Gas: Top in place?

The corrective move in natural gas seems to have met support in the vicinity of $4.70 on Tuesday. The downtick was accompanied by diminishing open interest, removing some strength from the downtrend and allowing for a near-term rebound. So far, prices of the commodity seem to have charted an interim top past the $5.60 mark per MMBtu earlier in the month.
