Summary

Top-Down Look at Natural Gas — Made Simple


Natural Gas has been dropping fast! Over the past month, it’s moved down over 23% — which is more than any other market.

That’s why I chose it for this week’s training video. In the video, I perform what’s called a “top-down” look at the market. This simply means I start by looking at the big picture (the monthly chart), then move to the medium picture (the weekly chart), and finally zoom in to the daily chart.

I point out the price areas that matter most and talk about where I think Natural Gas might go next. I also explain what I need to see before I’d feel good about making a trade in this market.

Click here to watch the video. It's a great way for you to learn how to study a market like this. It’s only 7 minutes and 33 seconds long, and I hope you enjoy it!
