Read from FRED, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis 11 November 2026 at 12:18 UTC: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/fredgraph.csv?id=DHHNGSP&cosd=2023-07-30; the bytes read had the SHA-256 769deaafc0d91864a209fca2958a3cda20d2fd352a6f6178de967ca650e39e3f.

The method and its assumptions

The series' past changes over the same horizon, as proportions, applied to its latest value.

The 742 changes of the series over 7 days from values dated 6 November 2023 to 3 November 2026, taken as proportions; their quantiles (Hyndman and Fan's definition 7) applied to its latest value, US$ 2.63 per million Btu, give the forecast's; the chance of a rise is the share of those changes above zero with one added to each side (Laplace's rule): (372 + 1) / (742 + 2).

The assumption: the spread of the series' changes in the window used is the spread of the change to come. Nothing else is used: no news, no other series, no one's judgment.

How it is resolved and scored

Resolved with the value FRED, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis publishes for the first date on or after the target date, as the station first reads it (later revisions do not change it). Void if none is published within 30 days after it. Scored by the CRPS, by whether the value falls inside the 50%, 80% and 90% intervals, and the chance of a rise by the Brier score.

Asked again each time FRED, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis publishes a new value, at the daily run at 06:00 UTC.
