The Five Key Technicals Every Gas Buyer Should Watch
Did you know that in a typical bidweek, WHEN you chose to buy your gas could mean a 50- to 70-cent per MMBtu difference in your price? Even if you only purchase physical gas and never plan to deal with futures or trading, looking at five simple technicals can make a sizable difference in your cost structure.
In the past, gas buyers have taken the stance that technical analysis was a tool reserved for speculative traders, not commercial hedgers.... But this is changing. Increasingly, ldcs, industrials and large commercial gas buyers are using technicals to optimize the hedging, trading and timing of their supply procurement opportunities.
In this 2.5-hour course, veteran energy trader and market technician Cynthia Kase will present the five most important technical analysis tools that 21 years of natural gas trading have shown to be most valuable. Be on hand as she walks through how to apply them in real-life situations.
