NG is trading below its 200-day MA ($8.99) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 41.5 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of +5.9% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 10.6%). The current 58.8% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
