Over the years, natural gas has become one of the most popular commodities. Traders have been quick to embrace its high liquidity and volatility. Since the 2008 recession, though, natural gas prices have been on a slippery slope that has led them to exhibit some of the the lowest prices on a historical basis. While there is debate surrounding fossil fuel and whether or not it will have an integral part in our future energy consumption, it is clear that NG is one of the world’s most influential commodities.
