From the Feb.15  post Natural Gas Measured Targets " Expectations then would be for a short term move up to the 3.50 /3.70 area followed by a move lower to 3.00 or more likely 2.80 and possibly, though less likely, even 2.40 ( if its a .76 retrace).  That would complete the C of a X wave down."  I would encourage readers to check out the Feb. 15 post for additional detail.
