The April New York Mercantile Exchange (Nymex) contract bounced off technical support near $3.96 on Thursday and Friday, aided by cooler weather model runs and record feed gas flows to the Plaquemines LNG terminal in Louisiana, according to EBW Analytics Group senior analyst Eli Rubin.

On Monday, the prompt month settled down 8.6 cents at $4.018, with a posted intraday range of $3.977 to $4.218.
