Natural Gas Doubles in Eight Days; CFTC Position Limits at Work

From a low of about 2.400/m BTU, to a high today of about 4.700/m BTU, the price of natural gas has nearly doubled in eight trading days. This is the impact of the onerous new CFTC restrictions on position size limits - higher prices, lower liquidity, more erratic movements.

About Me

S Benard: United States; I am a student of economics, financial analyst, and futures trader, specializing in agricultural commodities, and especially grains, but I also trade gold and other metals, soft commodities, treasuries, and stock index futures. I began trading spot Forex currency crosses in May 2003, and in August 2006, I met a futures trader who has been making a living in futures for more than 20 years, and he became my futures mentor. I've never looked back, and I am now head trader for Global Capital Reserves, my own firm. I also have both Bachelors and Master of Science degrees in business. I really enjoy trading futures, and hope to share my successes, a few failures, and methodologies.
