reuters reports that Russia’s gas giant Gazprom will fully suspend natural gas supplies to Engie, one its main European utilities, from Sept. 1 until it receives all payments for gas in full, the company said on Tuesday.
”Gazprom is further squeezing gas deliveries to Europe in a dispute over contracts, deepening concerns about Europe’s winter energy supply.”

The Gartley is a reversion pattern but the price could find pressures again in due course while below the neckline of the formation.
